Exclamation I'm really going to need a flamesuit for this purchase.

...but how can you say no to one of those little old lady situations?






Its a '96 Cadillac Seville STS with 126k. Rare Montana Blue Metallic color. No issues, 2 owner of nearly 10 years, and has 300HP going to the front wheels. Great condition, just a few PDR/buffable granny marks.

Why did I buy it? The sentimental reason: My Grandfather's last car was a '95 Seville SLS. He died 10 years ago, and my grandmother started driving the Cadillac full time, parking the 500SL (given to me at 16). In 2002, my Grandmother bought the newly released Cadillac CTS. The Seville was given away to a family member and was driven to a neglected early death. I have many fond memories of this style of car.

The practical reason: I paid $2000 for it.
