"We purchased this car new in 93 . We have loved since. We have obviously had many other cars over the last 20 years but this one we just never could part with. It is an extremely luxurious, comfortable, attractive, dependable automobile and now that it has acquired some age we love it even more. It is a beautiful old car that is a pleasure and treat to drive. It has always been in the garage so it still has its original mirror shine and the elegant leather interior looks new. This car looks like a CADILLAC as in 93 G.M. had downsized the devilles however this model still has the old classic Cadillac lines. Other than tires, wiper blades and so forth mechanically it is an amazingly dependable car. I currently drive the CTS V and it is a beautiful car it doesnt scream CADILLAC like our beloved old sedan deville! P.s. the old girl still turns heads!"

Worst used car I ever purchased!

By NoMoreCadi (MI) on Monday, November 05, 2012

I owned and sold this car
Reason: Bad Engine - My approximate mileage is 100,000

Pros: "smooth ride"

Cons: "Not enough space to list the cons: problem engine."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1

"The car appeared to run well when I bought it, but after a few trips over 60 MPH it fell apart. The aluminum block engine started leaking, the drivers side window slide broke, there was no A/C, the hood wouldn't open, and the trunk would not close. Other than that it was a smooth ride."

1993 Cadillac Deville

By Cadillac (AZ) on Sunday, July 08, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 100,000

Pros: "Fun to drive, lot of room, quiet on the road."

Cons: "Mine has cupholders! Can't think of any cons."

"A solid road car! Surprisingly agile and handles well for such a large sedan. Very quiet, dependable, and luxurious! I have just raked up 100,000 and no problems to report. This is a car you can drive all day and never get tired of driving. I bought it 5 years ago with just over 40,000 on the original engine! I have followed its maintenance schedule and always use the synthetic oil - no major problems to report. Transmission works like new, all the gadgets work, automatic windows work; but the radio went out on my last week (will need to replace it with a newer model). Otherwise, it's been a solid and reliable car. Lots of room inside and able to drive to Canada and back and still go to work the next day. :)"

By oldschooldevil (TX) on Friday, March 16, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 69,000

Pros: "Extremely Luxurious!!!!"

Cons: "yup no cup holders...."

"I am in love with my Caddy. It is extremely comfortable. It has a completely digital dash...no analog gauges what so ever. Leather is soft and durable. The car literally floats (literally, it has air compressors in it self leveling system)You also forget how fast you are going...you could be going 80 and think you are only going 50. The only Con to this car...she is thirsty. I get average 19 mpg which is excellent for a huge 4.9 v8. Overall I love this car and will make sure I take good car of her."

They don't make 'em like this anymore.

By Andy (WA) on Wednesday, January 11, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 75,000

Pros: "25 mpg hwy, acceleration, quiet cabin, smooth ride"

Cons: "15-17 mpg city, premium fuel, difficult to repair"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I love every bit about this car. These are the last of their breed; cushy, comfy and rides like a cloud, yet gives you great power and acceleration when you need it. The body design in my opinion is timeless with a blend of classic and contemporary. The touring edition is a "transitional car" that combines the yacht-like characteristics of the brand's past models with more agile and responsive handling. Like the allante and STS, it's a precursor to the performance caddys you see now these days. 4.9l based cadillacs are great for first time owners of the brand. Lower mileage ones are usually trouble free and very reliable as the engine and tranny has been tweaked and refined from their 4.5 brethren. Steer clear from the aluminum based north-star cadillacs as they are temperamental and will be costly to repair over time."

Top 5 vehicles I have owned

By Panther (KS) on Sunday, January 08, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 165,000

Pros: "Great comfort, soft, quiet ride."

Cons: "Miss dual zone climate, could use more leg room"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I bought it a few months ago as estate settlement, needed a power window repaired, gave it a detail job, serviced it and am driving approximately 100 miles a day to work. The car looks great and has lots of power, was a little nervous at first to learn that regular maintenance may have been lacking for a while, found sludge in the 1st oil change, but checked it out, No major problems and found I am averaging around 24 on the highway, but was pleased to learn I got nearly 30 mpg on a 4 hour stretch to see family over the holidays. Will probably be a Caddy owner from now on."
