Northstar meets spacious luxury

Some might consider the 1996 Cadillac DeVille too large, or a "gas hog," however the true enjoyment is experienced when making a statement driving down the road in superior comfort knowing you could "trash" 95% of the competition in acceleration and comfort. this car is one of America's finest.

I bought my Caddie in 2001 with 34000 miles on it. I know have 16000 and hope to make it to 250000. I still love this car. My occasional repairs have been expensive, but worth the investment. I hope to luck into another one in a few years.

This is my seocnd Cadillac and I'll probably buy more of them. I travel the interstates frequently. The ride is superb and the gas mileage very satisfactory. The handling is a dream; this is a sturdy vehicle. Surprisingly the repairs on this car are minimal and upkeep is very afordable. The color of my car - black cherry is unique to this area and I've received many compliments not only on the name "cadillac" but the appearance of this shiny ride.

The 1996 DeVille is a fabulous machine! With the introduction of the Northstar powerplant, it really moves. Quite impressed with the 275hp and 300 lbs-ft torque. The interior is well appointed and very comfortable. Having the computer monitor all important functions is a great asset. I look forward to many more Cadillacs with the quality of this one!

I bought my 1996 Cadillac DeVille used in9/04. It had nearly 100,000 miles on it. I had problems right off with misfiring, which ended up being faulty plug wires (which had just been replaced??). I'm glad that I didn't have to pay for them! Also, the air conditioning didn't work. It took $200 to find a bad wire! Have put 20,000 miles on it since then without any major issues, which is a good thing because it costs a boat load to fix the thing! The previous owner burned 87 octane fuel and so have we-don't notice any performance difference even when we did try the expensive gasoline.
