  • In continuation of my "Short Takes" video series at All City Auto, I give a tour of a 2003 Cadillac Seville. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

    Wonderful automobile. Although Cadillac cars have become far more modern than these past vehicles, I still believe these old ones look much better than the current cars. I mean... Cadillac was born as a luxury brand and their current cars are looking sooo "Batman" they're more into sport design than elegance. Thanks for sharing, Kyle.

It was so eye catching that someone would spend their life savings to own it brand new.

    These cars today are horrible. I have one with 89k miles that I bought for 4500 (Seemed like a steal considering its relatively low miles) and not even a week later the car broke down. Took it to a shop and they say a quick fix and sell was done on this car before I bought it to make it look like it's in prestige condition. The trans blew. I get a new one for about the same price I bought the car for than try to start it but the fuel pump and starter quit out. Had to replace both of those and decided to give it one last try and it drove relatively good until the motor finnaly blew. Had to get rid of it. I'm pissed because I got the car for 4500 (not including insurance,tags,etc.) And spent a total of 9k just to get the car working good until the motor quit out. Now I used it as a down payment as a 2012 Chrysler 300. Never looking at another caddy again.
