What's yellow and sour?

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2000
Review: I have to say I had been spoiled. The Infiniti J-30 I had leased for three years was close to the perfect car. Looking back, I should have bought it outright. But no, I had to have a new car after three years of fun, trouble-free driving. And...

I enjoy it, but I miss my Saab

Date of Review:  Sep 9, 1999
Review: I sold a 1993 Saab 9000 Aero when I bought my Catera in 1998, and I have rarely taken my Cadillac out on the open road without regretting that decision. Do you want to know why?

Let me start with some basics about the Catera: I think it?s a...

A Real Lemon

Date of Review:  May 4, 2000
Review: I leased a new Catera from Williamson Cadillac in Miami, FL in 03/98 because of recommendations made to me by friends who had just purchased one. Needless to say, that was one of the worst mistakes I have ever made.
The car made it's first trip...

First Year - 8,000 miles

Date of Review:  Jul 22, 2000
The Bottom Line: Too many small problems - it can get quite annoying. Mazda Millenia and Infiniti I30 are better choices in the same price range.
Review: Comfort and Amenities:
Very comfortable but seats could be better designed, only missing item - built in digital compass

Performance and Handling:
Average performance despite 200 hp 3.0 L engine (heavy car - 3,800 lbs).

Buyer Beware

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2001
Review: My "luxury" car has spent more time in the shop than on the road. Apparently an engineering flaw in the alignment specs have caused all four tires to "wear excessively" (bald in less than 25K miles). My car has been aligned four times in eight...

Affordable Luxury Vehicle

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: It's a great car for the people that like the Cadillac line but prefer to drive a smaller car.
Review: This is a Cadillac for the people that don't like the giant boat size cars that Cadillac usually makes. We have a black on black that we find to be really pretty and sleek.
The inside of this car is packed with great features. Automatic seats...
