DTS Is a World Class Car
My DTS is the first Caddy I purchased. Have owned Lexus in the past, and feature for feature there is no comparison. The DTS lopes effortlessly at 80mph, the Northstar is a fabulous powerplant and for such a large and heavy car, it goes like a bat outta' hell. The stabiltrak works well, the on-board computer system is excellent, the seats are extremely comfortable. I use the car for long distance driving and have never driven a finer vehicle on the highway. It has also proven to me that it is once again cool to drive a Caddy!

Cadl.DevilleDTS
This is the nicest car we have ever owned. Had a Cadillac ten years ago that was ok, but this one is outstanding. The only thing they could have done better is provide a little more up-graded interior..ie. window visors look/feel cheap...vanity mirrors look/feel cheap...The car handles great, is a joy to drive and ride in...best cruising car. Roomy/comfortable/luxury...really nice car. Look forward to driving it all the time. We got the Bose stereo system..outstanding...and OnStar is worth every penny...this car practically drives itself.
THIS JOINT IS AWESOME !!!
Yo, Caddy finally made a full-size folks under 40 can enjoy. SWEET! in every way. This is my first Cad ever. 2004-DTS is NO JOKE. Mad power, Sweet sound, Nav, Rear Sonar & Night vision phenomenal. Though SONAR was defective on delivery, Cad. fixed and provided free loaner. Car works well with you for skillful handling, even at HIGH speeds (I know).
for mom
if the driver wants something to put mom in and go like your hair is on fire, this is it. mom will love the ride and quietness yet it gets out of its own way. ..i read it refered to as a wolf in an armani suit.....i agree. !!!18mpg city 23 hiway...excellent warranty and loaners from cadillac..email any questions
DTS IS BEST RIDE & VALUE FOR THE MONEY
Having drove 6 Cadillac Sevilles, I was sold on the Seville until I drove the DTS recently. My lease expired on my 2002 Seville & I had to upgrade to the DTS. The DTS is a great luxury ride with room to spare. The gas mileage is similar to the Seville but the comfort & ride is superior! A hot car for sure.... Cadillac has a winner here for certain!
BREN'S CADI
Prior to purchasing my cadillac deville I admired every deville seen on the road. After about a year I visited the dealership just for fun. I had no idea I would return home with my cadillac. I absolutely love everything about it.
First Class
Love my new Cadillac which I traded from a 2001 model. The design is similar, but the ride is even smoother and quieter. Sitting in the heated/air conditioned lumbar supported seats is definitely first class travel all the way.
nice
We have had numerous problems with the computer system. Can't seem to solve problems yet.
2004 Cadillac DeVille
I am 42 years old,6'3", 220 lbs. I need a comfortable car for business travel. I test drove BMW 5 Series (too small), 7 Series (outrageously expensive and filled with idosynchratic controls and an "I - Drive" computer which is very frustrating to operate). Looked at Lexus - very nice, but about exciting as a bowl of vanilla ice cream (doesn't really stand out as a luxury car - designed in a wind tunnel). The Lexus is highly refined - it's like a Rolex.
finest auto available regardless of $$$
This car is incredible. The 'real time suspension' is REAL. Northstar engine lives upto 8 year reputation. You could spend millions for an auto and not get anywhere near the product as this vehicle. My only regret is that I could not afford this car 15 years ago!
overall view of Cadilac dts
Rear light lenses cannot be replaced if broken. A complete unit must be purchased. This is an extra cost that needs to be addressed.
BEST EVER
i'M 48 AND MY SON TALKED MY HUSBAND INTO LOOKING INTO THIS INSTEAD OF A TRUCK CAN YOU BELIEVE IT! I love it my son is 6'3 and not asking can you move the seat up further? the ride is the best.
Deville
The Cadillasc DeVille is by far the most comfortable car of all on the market. We have physically tried them ALL!! Foreign & American have been tested by this family. Money was not an object but comfort and performance was. We were surprised to end up with the DeVille actually we thougth we were going to pick a foreign car. We are very happy and even the hip young college students in our family want to drive this car. We enjoy the reliabilty, service,comfort and all the extras. We dressed up our car with larger chrome wheels and a fake convertible top to make it look a litle more appealing to us. It looks real sharp.
TMS
The car is comfortable and large, terrible paint quality ( fixed under warranty) Still not quite satisfied. tires had to be replaced at 500 miles because of bad vibration. Out of the Cadillacs I have had this 2003 deville seems to be the best feeling. The previous Devilles I have had steered like concrete trucks and left you tired after a road trip. The reason I buy these cars is because my wife likes them. Personally I would prefer a smaller quicker car. I have had 4 Devilles since 1992. and quite frankly the last two a 2001 and a 1998 were real garbage. This 2003 seems to be much improved.
2004 Cadillac Deville Review
This is by far the finest autombile I have owned. I have driven Cadillac's since 1990 and find this particular car to be the best. I have not had a single requirement to return to the dealer for any adjustments or correction. This car has the comfort and convenience that my wife and I enjoy. We are both in our 70's. We are comfortable, feel safe and secure and confident in it's performance. The dealer attention during the sale and since has been superior. It is truly a fine automobile.
A Very Good Choice
When I purchased my 2004 Cadillac DeVille I was looking for a vehicle that was quiet and fun to drive. I did not want to hear the normal engine and road noise, nor did I want to feel cracks and ridges in the road. This Deville had my attention as soon as I turned the key to start the engine. It is fun, easy and relaxing to drive yet surprisingly responsive when desired. There are many good vehicles available, but I believe this is one of the best and safer cars on the market.
Best Value for a Used Luxury Car
I bought this 2004 lease return vehicle with 30,000 miles on it in the summer of 2004 for less than $25,000. That's Toyota Camry territory. It is quiet, comfortable, and gets 27-28 MPG on the highway. It has a full factory warranty thru 50,000 miles and I bought an aftermarket warranty through 125,000 miles. My wife drive this one while I drive either the '98 Seville with 135,000 miles (another lease return bargain bought 5 years ago) or the '94 Fleetwood lease return with 200,000 miles bought in Dec '94.
Love this Car!
I bought it used and I have to tell the world, this car rocks. It has a super sound system, looks awesome (White Pearl), handles nicely, has lots of zoom, and the gas mileage is not bad if I keep my foot out of it. I love beating the Mustang GT kids off the lights. What a blast. I love my Caddy.
Cadillac STD Sedan
I've only had this car for two weeks, but I think it's going to prove to be the finest auto we've ever owned. It takes you down the road effortlessly and rides like you're floating on air. It has a beautiful design and its black color shines like a diamond! I traded in a low miles '03 Grand Marquis for this '04 DeVille with 21,000 miles on it. I got it for HALF of what a new DeVille would have cost me. I am thrilled with the swap, so far. The power in the Northstar engine is impressive, too. I think this is going to be a great car for us for years to come. Oh, and this is a certified Cadillac and it is fully covered end to end until July, 2010. Beautiful!
Great car!
Wonderful, dependable, comfortable. A real example of what Detroit can do if necessary. Toyota can't compare to our luxury cars.
Exceptional Vehicle
This is the third Cadillac that I have owned and it is by far the best. I bought this car just prior to retirement as I planned to travel. I am so glad I did, it gives a comfortable ride and drive. I am handicapped and this vehicle lessens the difficulty of the trip. The lack of fuel efficiency is more than compensated for by the ride and superiority of the vehicle. I love this car.
First Caddy... but not last!
At forty-one, I'm probably younger than the average Deville owner. But with four children and a wife, I needed a vehicle that seated six. Few choices exist outside an SUV or minivan. I recently purchased a used '04 w/ 57k. In the short time I've owned it, I've found it to be comfortable, fun to drive and surprisingly economical. I average 29 mpg highway (around 18 city). The NorthStar V8 & trans are smooth and quite. While I'm not sure I would have paid $40k + for this car four years ago, the poor re-sale value puts it in a class by itself for a used car! I will own other Cadillac's in the future. I'm also fond of the '08 CTS & DTS. However, the new STS styling needs to be bolder.
DHS
This is my fifth deville, and find the dhs to be a nice car to drive. I am disappointed that they did away with the white diamond paint. Also, the craftmanship is poor, in that the body panels don't fit properly. When will gm catch on. Overall, the car is nice, but way overpriced for what you get. My next car may be a toyota.
A joy to drive.
Bought 2002 deville 6/03 and had one problem water pump was bad warrent cover it .the car ride great handle very good on hideway .and a great eye catcher .
Automatic Transmission
2003 Cadillac automatic transmission changes gear change ranges erratically. At times it shifts back and forth between two ranges. I find this a poor example, of what is considered a luxury vehicle. I have brought this to the attention of Cadillac and it appears thry have no interest in addressing the problem.
Psuedo Luxury Car
For the cost, one certainly can buy a better car. Road noise, wind noise and seat comfort should be hallmarks of a luxury car. This car fails each catagory. The Michelin tires are the wrong tire for this car. They wear poorly and are virtually impossible to balance properly. If the car has a problem they can't fix, they treat you like the plague instead of admitting the problem - a fatal GM flaw. Engine is totally underpowered. It does get good gas mileage.
