But I like 1998-2004 Cadillac Seville. I think it was one of the best old style Cadillacs built before they got into there whole Art and Science Era.
I also think the rear end looks nice, one of the best ones Cadillac had designed before the newer CTS.

I made this exact same post on oppo a year or two ago. That tail treatment is divine.

Styling is wonderful, execution is poor. I've spent a good amount of time in SLS and STS sedans and they have terrible handling and not enough rebound control for a pleasant ride, the engines aren't particularly durable or fast, but they sounds great and the interiors look, feel and smell like a mid 2000's Hyundai Azera...not a great benchmark. They do look great though.

True story, a black SLS took me to prom, also there was a girl there.

I love that generation. Good condition examples still catch my eye.
Just wish the Northstar didnt have such headgasket issues (because at full tilt it sounds incredible)... and the sloppy 4T80E going to the front wheels.

Always loved the STS, but not the leaking tail lights.

Well it is mid 2000's cadillac so I guess a bit of poor execution is ok.

Being the former owner of one of these I can say you are spot on. I won't ever own one again though. Oh and I think you forgot to mention the weight distribution, front 99% and rear 1%, which doesn't exactly help the handling either.

They caught my eye until I owned one, now not so much. Soooooo poorly executed.

I'm a fan too, I like my Eldorado more though. I wish the Northstar's didn't self destruct because they are really fine cars and really fine engines.

Jeremy Clarkson even liked the northstar so somthing must be right.

Hey, I've got those same headlights! But my grille is from a V. I wish I could find one of those Erabuni body kits, though. I've been scouring junkyards for years hoping to find one before its crushed.

It's a great engine, lots of torque, very smooth, nice sound and power. It just always blew headgaskets like nobody's business. If my car can somehow hit 150k without suffering an engine problem, it'll be a miracle.
