Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
Pros
- Strong and smooth drivetrain, long list of standard features, excellent crash test scores, comfortable highway cruiser.
Cons
- Doesn't hold its value as well as other luxury cars, front-drive layout limits maximum performance potential.
What’s new
The STS now sports standard 17-inch chrome wheels while all Sevilles can now couple XM Satellite Radio with the DVD navigation system. The SLS also gets a new body-colored grille and foglamps for a monochromatic look.
Edmunds says
If you're looking for a top-notch luxury sedan that favors comfort over performance, the Seville is one of the smoothest rides this side of Stuttgart.

High Miles and all. I'm a believer

2003 Cadillac Seville SLS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
Great vehicle. Mine is a 2003 with 220,000 miles, but no one knows that but me. I've taken great care of it and it has taken great care of me. I see a lot of bad reviews here, but I can't find a bad thing to say about mine. Oh wait, the ashtray cover won't always stay down. Big deal. This car always starts, rides great and the BOSE is much more than you will ever need. I reccomend … Cadillac to any and everyone. 27MPG also.

2003 Cadillac Seville STS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
My first luxury car, and I think i picked a winner. At first I must say the car had some build issues, speakers, driver side heated seat, driving sensors, lets just say I got to know what a Cadillac dealership shop looked like. But I must say the staff where always helpful, friendly, and very knowledgeable. Once I got all the bugs worked out the car has been great. Taking this car on a … road trip is a dream, the performance/comfort ratio truly lives up to the Cadillac name.

'03 STS
Steven Jerome, 08/05/2006
2003 Cadillac Seville STS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
This is my third STS and by far the best. I also had a '96 and a '98. This car's beautiful lines and aggressive wheels and tires make a great first impression. Mine has every option except navigation. It is very smooth, luxurious, and classy. It's much better than the Mercedes E430 that I traded in in every aspect. I am extremely satisfid with this car.

2003 Cadillac Seville SLS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
The 2003 Seville is a nice car with some great
features and has that unique style as the price has drop and you can afford to have one. The North star motor can be a smooth surprise, but like with any vehicle you buy there is always some strength and weakness of any car, The car itself is a driving computer and if your not aware of this the car can be your worse nightmare in repair with … sensors and the electronic hardware that runs the car, but aside of that the car is a marvel as the technology in the car has laid some idea's for the future Cadillac's,
Its a true Cadillac and i just love mines with 96,000 miles and i am a mechanic
if you see one for sale get one.
