Summary:
I bought this car when originally looking at the SLS/STS models and so far I am very glad I did. I got the taupe interior with the white diamond color and chrome wheels-- I get complements on the caddy wherever I go. The interior is very handsome with easy-to-use controls. Overall, I love this car.

Strengths:
Very comfortable ride, great gas mileage for a car this size (17/27 MPG), whisper-quiet cruising, very good fit/finish (the car's interior STILL smells like leather!), plenty of passing power above 50MPH, seats feel like XL-sized leather chairs (with a very soft, high quality leather, not hard and uncomfortable) and the gorgeous styling.... Far classier than any Lincoln product.

Weaknesses:
The engine LOVES to eat oil. Thank goodness the Information Center warns you when the car is about 2 quarts low or several people would burn the motors up! Another thing is when your brake pads start to wear down, there isn't a wear indicator on the pads, (giving off the high-pitched squeaking sound you've heard on other cars) and the only idea you'll have to warn about worn pads is a very intense shaking when braking.

Summary:
The engineers finally are earning thier money! This automobile is by far the nicest Caddy I've had in a while. Totally re-engineered, tight, quiet, good fit and finish. White diamond pearl killer paint.

Strengths:
Ergonomically friendly; everything within easy reach, a stiff but not harsh ride. I wanted an Eldorado, but this is pretty close.

Weaknesses:
A little "cheap" here and there: tie downs in truck plastic which break easily. Not much else to say at this point; only put 1000 miles on it over 5 months.

Summary:
I have always driven Cadillacs, my first being a 1963 Coupe deVille. My 2001 deVille is the natural successor to a great line of automobile. Good styling, wonderful performance and as much technology as they can squeeze into any car.

Strengths:
Considering the weight and 275 horsepower, fuel economy is usbeatable. I've gotten better than 30mpg on the interstate, 29 with 2 passengers and a trunk full of luggage. Plenty of excelleration for merging onto the highway and then some. Very comfortable and very quiet. Almost no engine noise except under full throttle. Good lines and good looks.

Weaknesses:
Front wheel drive. I can't wait until they return to a rear drive platform.
