I for one consider the STS to e hands down superior. And would rather own a STS than any Mercedes Benz or BMW in the same price range. However, I believe the DTS to be an outdated American Cruiser, that should really be under the Buick name.

Any thoughts? Most of you know more about cars than I do, and I love to listen.

Ahhhhh... finally a thread on my subject. i own an 2002 deville and a seville. errr owned. we just sold the SLS today.

of the two cars i take the DTS hands down. Both have reasonable interior space, quietness, handling, acceleration.

The seville is sportier. The interior is more firm. leather is lower grade. handling is only slightly better than the Deville. accleration is pretty identical with the seville a bit faster. the seville has more power. but theres more than just power.


i love to drive the Deville better than my 2011 GT, 96gt, Jeep, SLS. the Deville styling is more elegant and sophisticated. the interior noise level is lower than the SLS. The grade of leather is better and the seats more comfortable than the seville. The deville is not designed for perfomance, but is great for a car that size. 275hp is as much as a 96 Z28. I love the way the Deville makes me feel driving it. i feel class and style no other caddy has. I love its exterior look most of all of my cars.


Keep in mind i drive my stangs sideways. powershift and race them.

I wuold sell them all over the Deville if forced to. the car i would keep is the Dts.
