I have a 93 Seville and love it !! Cadillacs FTW !! If your going 90's though be careful of the northstars they all seem to have what's known as the notorious northstar oil leak or they will soon. Lol
After 2001 there supposed to be better and not have this problem. Mine has it and its not that big of a deal just have to keep an eye on the oil level, but its something to keep in mind if your shopping around.
