Overview

Cadillac added two features to the Seville for 1997: an Integrated Chassis Control System for precise braking when the car loses control and OnStar security. Besides that, the Seville stayed the same. This midsize sedan has 2 trims: the SLS and the STS. Both use a 4.6 L V8 engine with the SLS running on 275 hp and the STS bringing 300 hp. 4 speed automatic transmission comes standard. Both trims give you 17 mpg in the city, 26 on the highway. In addition, the SLS and STS have 4 doors, seat 5, and have 14.4 cubic feet of trunk space. Standard features include air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, ABS brakes, and power seats. Options include sunroof and cd player. The STS has standard leather seats. The Seville accelerates from 0-60 mph in 6.9 seconds. Once again, maintenance comes up as a recurring issue. Drivers warn that once the Seville hits around 100,000 miles, you may have to spend more than the car's depreciated value in order to keep it running. Some reviewers would like a more modern design. Otherwise, performance and handling remain smooth. In the end, make sure to enjoy the ride for as long as you can before constant maintenance goes from distant prospect to unfortunate reality.

This is my second cadillac to own. It has a 4.6 liter V-8 engine with tons of power. This car comes with a 12-disc cd changer stock and it is equipped with a Bose stereo system. For those who like thier bass..well this car has plenty stock but adding a couple of subs doesn't hurt lol. Leather seating and heated front seats make this car nice to have in the winter. I can say that it's a very reliable vehicle that could last someone a very long time. For a '97 it only has 115000 miles on it so it has tons of life left.

Fun to drive. Nice smooth ride. Nice sound system. Great performance, strong motor. Good solid car. Love the looks. Little maintenance, but when something breaks, its a little expensive. It's very enjoyable to drive and I notice that I turn a few heads with it.

Very solid and comfortable ride. My first caddilac and I was extremely impressed with the balance of performance and luxury. Options included everything you could possible want and then some. Even after twelve years of being on the road it still gets a lot of attention.

The 97 Cadillac Seville is a great car to buy used, if it has been well taken care of by previous owners. If not then a pretty body is expensive to maintain and operate. They are, at least so far manageable issues
