Has Your Car's Value Changed?
Used car values are constantly changing. Edmunds lets you track your vehicle's value over time so you can decide when to sell or trade in.
Build Quality
The car is a great concept but poor implementation. Lot of rattles and problems because of build quality. Problems with brakes, A/C, suspension. No place for sunglasses, cannot see clock in daylight. Engine runs strong but drinks oil. Handling is good.
Look Elsewhere For A Used Car
I put a lot of money into this car. When it worked, it worked well. It just didn't work well for very long or very often. Finally, 3 weeks after putting another $500 into maintenance (and telling dealer about idle problems and handling problems) the car's "Check Suspension System" warning came on and driving the car became like riding a bucking bull.
VERY HAPPY 98 STS OWNER
I have a 98 STS it has abt 70,000 miles I have been very happy with it being my second sts. i owned a 94 sts previously. I love the performance and the handling at 1st was not up to BMW/MB/AUDI standards but I put 20" wheels on it and with 255/35/20 kumho ecsta tires it handles like a dream! I will be buying a 2005 STS when they debut. I drove an 03' with magnaride and that was a revelation! Overall I average 20 mpg which is better than my fiances 330CI and having driven a lot of cars nothing in its class rides as good on big wheels including A6 and 540i
1 Happy Car Owner
The first car I ever drove was a Cadillac Fleetwood and what I remember most about the vehicle was the ride. It floated along the roads. After owning other foreign and domestic cars, I purchased my first Cadillac, an SLS. While the SLS does not float like the Fleetwood, it is a great ride. This car is very responsive and handles well. I've not had any problems with the vehicle using more oil than my other vehicle. Even on a long trip, the occupants were comfortable. Buying this car was a good decision.
98 STS
The STS is one of the best automobiles I've owned. Reliability is excellent, fuel economy is around 27 MPG highway, and comfort is exceptional. The car also handles very well in snow.
