My favorite cadillac of all time.

[@49RonGuidry]

Beautiful, these Sevilles were some of my favorite Cadillacs ever made. Amazing how they came out swinging in the mid 70s when American automakers were struggling to stay viable with the gas crunch and most fell on their face. Cadillac nailed it with the 1st gen Seville, looks great in black. And this has to be the first digital speedometer.

[@Chevroldsmobuiac]

That design has aged very well.

[@jakelevine7956]

i think im in love. lol...now thats a cadillac..

[@erichaley6776]

That’s a rare bird right there! Only a handful of these got the trip computer and digital gauge cluster!

[@starchild582]

I owned one just like this in navy blue. She was my first car. I was 24 years old. Loved that car! I still miss the auto-dim to high beam on the head lights. Handled like a dream. My favorite ride was driving up the winding Logan Canyon in Cache Valley Utah. Who ever gets this beauty...Enjoy!

[@thesemfnnutts]

They don't make em like this no more!

[@mightymorphinetime]

what a dream she is!

[@AeroModule]

first American car with digital speedometer. pretty cool.

[@MrGoldenwaffler]

This is my dream cadillac. The coolest feature by far is the digital instrumentation. This is actually the first american car to have digital readouts. Aston martin laganda was the first foreign car with digital dadh in 1976. The 1981imperial was the first with the complete digital panel.

Gorgeous car, from any angle. Still have mine, and she is one of the most beautiful cars I have ever owned, but the absolute most troublesome, and pain in the ass to work on. Brittle wiring, and door panels that rattle loose, with every door close. I chased down so many fuel injection faults, I was pulling my hair out. Fuel injection system had two modes. Run perfect, or not at all. I always carried a spare computer with me. Got so frustrated, I swapped out the intake, and threw a carb on it. At least then it was beautiful, and reliable.

Casket on wheels..looks GREAT!!

[@jade59230]

Casket on wheels?

[@charliesnyper5458]

PURE ELEGANCE!!!!!!

[@philipbrown4788]

That's a cool Seville 😎

[@jco5679]

Sad that Cadillac discontinued that body style, What were they thinking? They should have kept it going for 10 years at least , just like Mercedes Benz had the w107 body style from 1972 to 1989

[@CPMENACE6969]

She is the most beautiful car in that year but you are driving her hard no need to beat her like that!!! remember she is 35 years old i would love to own her!!!!

[@lisasmith4889]

Perfect size caddie

[@jameszoerb2892]

About the same size as a 78 Caprice. I have a white opera with white vinyl roof and black leather interior and new wire wheels. In 2000 I pulled the Olds engine and tranny and ended up with a fresh Cadillac 500 inch rebuilt r/v cammed, early swirl heads and modified intake, balanced engine and a 2004r tranny. 2000 rpm is 80 mph by Garmin measurement. I get 19.5 mph at 80 on a hot day with the a/c which I converted to difluoroethane gas. You can hang meat in there. Much better than r-12. Yes, the car is faster than any Mercedes of the same vintage as they quit at 125. I climb the Continental Divide locked up in 4th. It's more like a diesel minus the noise. Snuggled into the leather with the tilt-telescoping steering wheel with the cruise control, air and Wagner playing on the multi speaker stereo what else could a person ask for?

[@resonance398]

One of my friends has a 2006 Honda Civic.. he thought digital dash was new.. until I told him Cadillac had it in 1978.. Amazing.

[@carlosalvarez1520]

Got the same one only a bit nicer, it’s my daily driver and I love it..

[@Jltcp]

i rememer finding one of these. Was at an abandoned farm in the basement of a colappsed barn. good times

[@johnmcalister7023]

Good looking car:-)

[@LostFoundClassicCarCompany2015]

[@TeeroyHammermill]

gunnin that motor too hard. don't need to drive a 30+ year old car this hard. this car has the rare trip computer option. very rare option on these cars.

[@xLuiKangx007]

I love this car

[@marquiswilliams485]

I never understood why they put the antenna on the left side than the right like the other Cadillac models, also I wasn't aware that they made these with digital speedometer.

[@HH-gv2jk]

سياره جميله مشكلتها لاتخطر على بال وهي : ان عدد الألوان التي تناسب شكل هذه السياره لإظهار( تمام ) رونقها قليله جدا ،

[@brentg3707]

beautiful

[@jeffreyfelder7981]

Nice...

[@seahawker7796]

Where did you get that Kenwood deck from?! That's the exact unit I installed in my 1978 Ford Granada back in 1982! For such a basic unit it put out some beautiful sound.

[@Coupydog]

Car is gorgeous! That driver's door slam at 0:23 sounded awful tinny. I wasn't expecting that, looking at rest of car. Was that characteristic on these?

CHECK OUT MY 78 SEVILLE IN CHICAGO IL.

[@bibox9487]

[@mangukahaepiha9618]

iv got a white one

[@apl175]

3:14 WOuld've been more impressive if the COOLANT TEMPERATURE light wasn't on after driving for a few minutes.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

Your video is stretched. The car looks longer than it really is.

[@sidneywilder6675]

how much for the car

[@redbulljustice99]

how much??

[@sjn5401]

I don't know much about cars all I know is I want one like this! Is this a gas engine? Anyone know on average how many miles this car lasts, or if this Seville has good reliable engine or not?

[@wizardmix]

I remember this car as a toddler when it was then only 4 years old. Total lemon and I even knew that then. Most malaise era GMs and Fords were absolute throw-aways if I'm honest. Dressed up, smooth riding turds that would rust out, fall apart and implode before they could ever hit tripple digits. Hell most of them didn't even have odometers that went that high.

[@mr.butterworth]

Evan J Wrong. This was/is a fine car, with the usual reliability quirks of the era associated with the electronic fuel injection. Outside of that, it’s as mechanically solid as any 350 V8 powered GM car of the time, which is to say, it is solid. This one is still around!

[@philipbrown4788]

They were great cars, get one if u can because u won't be disappointed

[@DaShishtys]

Is it for sale??

[@farzadamini79]

my love

[@styldsteel1]

Shame on that radio tho.

[@gregbaird7582]

Triple black, with the trip computer, AND MOONROOF! NICE! Only thing that could make it better would be removing the vinyl roof.

[@LostFoundClassicCarCompany2015]

If you're interested we currently have a 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible available! you can check it out at www.lostandfoundclassiccarco.com

[@lycanwolf64]

it's basically a dressed up Caprice

[@RaptureMeSoon]

Actually it is based on the Nova.

[@Coupydog]

Nova in a Tux!

[@JamesJones-md3gi]

It's a 4 door Cutlass drive train and chassis.

[@mr.butterworth]

You’re all wrong. The Seville was neither a Nova, Caprice, or a Cutlass. It did share part of the floor pan, a roof stamping, and certain suspension pieces with the X-body Nova, but that’s basically all. And only the drivetrain came from Oldsmobile. This was years before blatant badge engineering. The chassis was stretched and modified to the extent that it earned its own K-body designation. All the engineering modifications in terms of ride and frame isolation, resulted in a car far more refined than an X-body Chevy. The Seville was definitely it’s own car.

[@thatoneniggawalkingupthest5313]

Was that a option the dashboard ? Or is it after market

[@LostFoundClassicCarCompany2015]

I want to say an option but I'm not 100% sure, we sold this car 6 years ago.

[@brianmcghee3597]

It’s was a Cadillac option. Rare very rare.
