What a gorgeous automobile! Absolutely no reason to fear a low mile/well maintained Northstar! This car is probably one of if not the best example left in the world!

Anthony, this STS is an absolutely mint low mileage survivor. I hope it's next owner will give it the same loving care that it's previous owners have!

I've owned 4 Cadillacs with the north star I put over 200,000 miles on 2 of them with no problem just regular maintenance and oil changes and the cars were very reliable I still have one with the North Star I have the 2002 Eldorado Commemorative Edition and that has the north star system

I always loved the front end styling on these cars.

Wow Ant. Just wow. Side note: owned 4 Cadillacs and never had an issue with the Northstar. I take care of my vehicles which is really key. You’re 100% right about the cooling systems also. Great find

Miss seeing these on magazines when they were brand-new...so nice they were...still are, actually.

She's barely broke in, and I even like the color.

Seville Touring Sedan (STS), Deville Touring Sedan (DTS), Catera Touring Sedan (CTS)

I had a 1999 STS and it was the BEST car I ever owned. Drove it to 130,000 miles and never had any real problems with it, just maintenance issues. No issues with the Northstar engine. Wish I still had it; would trade my 2011 STS for it.

That is beautiful! Great price as well. A friend of mine also had a 2000 Seville STS in Crimson Red Pearl that had 22,000 miles on it. It was near perfect just like this blue one. He sold that car earlier this year and got $12,000 and is in a private collection. We're in a car club that has several other Cadillac's and so many other brands. The perfect model with all the best options, features and everything. My dad drives a black 2001 Seville STS and my grandmother has a 1994 Seville SLS. I'm glad that there's a few nice, showroom examples still hidding around. There's no question this went to the right new home! A lot of these have been shipped over seas over to Europe.

Especially flushing the coolant out, i do it every 2yr or 24k which ever comes first. Also put stop leak additive in the coolant. If you’re interested in buying a Cadillac with the Northstar engine take it to a shop, put it on a hoist look underneath it. If it’s wet don’t buy it, because it wasn’t taken care of.

Thank you for sharing this one. I remember this was the follow up to the 1992 Seville. I remember the promo materials said Cadillac Seville( STS) it is not what is new, it is what is next. The only issue I have with the car is what is under the hood. It had a lot of features too. Good video.

Man! You always show the best. Every single car I've seen you show on here is something that I'd buy or something that I've already owned, to include a Caddy Seville STS (had a 99' Sterling Silver example) that I've sold to my best friend. I really wanted a 03 or late 02 ^^^ with the Magnetic Ride Control (F55 PKG). I've had 3 Northstar Caddys all with high mileage (my first 11' DTS got totalled and had 224K and never overheated or did anything stupid and I drove it Daily). Excellent example here and such a lovely combination! I'll keep my eyes open for another one, hopefully a 03' Crimson Pearl or White Diamond Pearl in my budget

Wow! I love this STS I wish I could add this to our Cadillac collection! We have a 2001 Diamond White STS and has been nothing but a great car to us we have put SOOOO many miles on ours with no issues as a daily driver! We also have a 93 Fleetwood too in the same blue and I know this would look amazing next to the Fleetwood! You’ll love our Cadillacs too! Ours are in amazing shape too running strong with no issue.

Gorgeous Seville, a true time capsule. The interior quality and fit and finish is phenomenal. A great era of Cadillac. I absolutely love the rear design of these final gen Seville cars, those huge wraparound tail lights and big brake light. Rolling art.

I agree 100% these cars can be a dream IF YOU TAKE CARE OF THEM ! So many get ppl get lazy and push the maintenance to the limit , only to get burned later ... GREAT CAR AND VIDEO !!

Anthony...This one is gorgeous. I'm still saving up for one of your gems. This one is a real winner. You have quite the talent for finding the best classics.

A former manager of mine had one and it was fast, comfortable and plagued with the Northstar problems. I think his manifold blew below 50k miles. Keep em coming Anthony.

Absolutely beautiful Caddy STS Seville Touring Sedan. Love the styling, inside and out. Wish this video was recent and not a year old. I would’ve loved to have the opportunity to get my hands on this car.

When I lived in Denver my mother & I were at Ed Bozarth Chevy in Aurora CO when we saw a’98 Seville STS it was a metallic gray with the shale leather interior it was a powerhouse of a car with the 300 hp Northstar engine she bought it & we enjoyed it I know I did especially when one night I borrowed it to go pay a storage unit bill then proceeded to I-70 heading east and with no cops went 100 mph with ease. It wasn’t until years later I told her what I did and she just laughed. The downside of the car was having to take it to Rickenbaugh Cadillac for several repairs, the mechanic knew us every time we came in, it ended up being traded in for a 2000 Cartier Town Car which sadly got totaled but that’s another story

Had a 2002 Seville Touring Sedan that was given to me by an elderly couple. They were the only owners. We were close friends. Only had to put in new brake lines and brakes. Beautiful riding car. I did sell it shortly later "3 months later" though while it was still mint. Had my Lincolns and Mercury's, so I didn't need it. Great car.

Wow what a outstanding unit this is! Just a joy to watch and hear about as this unit is just like new! Can yo imagine a car that is 18 years old with that many miles on it. A gorgeous color so prestige looking like a car that would fit into the Presidents fleet of cars. Those Northstar engines did have issues but I have a 2003 Olds Aurora that has the 4.0 init had a issues with it in the seals but after it was fixed it was a awesome engine. Very smooth and powerful. As long as you take care of it on the times it calls for then you should be okay if you don't well you will have trouble. Just a outstanding unit Anthony! Thanks for showing it to us! I knew that would be a fast seller! I sure hope the third owner takes care of it like this is now!!

I had a 1999 Cadillac SLS, which had 155k miles before I traded it in for a 2007 Cadillac STS. and I loved the SLS, it drove so smooth. I never had an issue with the head gaskets unless they were fixed before I bought it, but I highly doubt it. Anyway I miss that car. I just wanted something newer at the time. But I want a 2001-2003 Cadillac STS, all black outside and interior, but they’re so hard to find in good condition.

I owned one exactly like this except in Black Raven. Best of luck to whoever purchased it. They are gorgeous but about the best thing you can do is keep it in the garage as an emotional support instrument. Look at it and sit in it when you need your "happy place". But if you plan on driving it good luck with the maintenance. The Northstar notoriously uses about 1 qt between oil changes and requires a lot more TLC than other cars. Every repair, even regular maintenance costs at least 3x as much as any other car and back then you could only take it to a certified Caddie technician for service. BTW, Anthony, that is NOT real wood trim. Plastic faux wood all the way.

Correct the HT4100 are very underpowered. The 4.5L that came right after saw a very small bump in power but not where they should have been. The 4.9L is when power was increased again; the Northstar V8 is when Cadillac's were able to compete with all the advanced engines of its time.
