1997 Cadillac Seville Luxury Sedan (SLS)

This is a very late model 1997 Cadillac SLS.  I am the third owner of the car, the second in our family to own it. This is a great car to take a trip in, either across the state or across town.  The ride is smooth with the soft-ride suspension, and still firm enough for it to be sure-footed on a two-lane road.

Under the hood lies the 32-valve Northstar V8 engine.  This is an excellent engine -- very smooth and powerful.  Stomp on the gas and the engine roars with the four cams singing a wonderful Detroit harmony; stay off the throttle and it's extremely quiet and reserved.  It's a very flexible, high-performance engine that makes great use of the suspension and transmission of this car.

Inside is pure luxury, with dual heated leather seats with 6-way adjustments, plus 4-way power lumbar (inflation and position controls).  Awesome illuminated instrumentation includes a large 7000-rpm tachometer and 150-mph speedometer (with smaller temp and gas gauges).  This engine will use up most of the real estate of that tachometer; redline starts at 6250 rpm.

As you can see from the (blurry) picture below, it's got almost 85,000 miles as of December 2001.
