My grandparents had a Deville. I remember driving it one day while I had my learner's permit. Had to turn the wheel 90 degrees to make a lane change. Cadillac has come a long way.
It's hard to fully explain. When I first got on the throttle I thought "This doesn't feel as fast as I expected it to be." Then I looked down and was doing 100 and had to shut it down. The car is just so planted and smooth that it's speed is very deceptive. It outruns and outhandles any other car I've been in which is a feat for a 4300 lb car. I still can't believe how good this car is in the twisties.
The supercharger whine will never get old. The gas tank is miniscule and it gets the same mileage as my Explorer, but who cares? The best part is that no one in town really understands what I'm driving except the very few in the know. The majority of them think it's just a more expensive Cadillac, so that should keep the boy racers off my back.

If anything I'd take the opportunity to repaint the wheels to a gunmetal finish.
