Love the drink in a regular glass, perfect for the highball on the go. Sure, at the time this car was completely out classed by all the competition, but.....I used to get these frequently as rentals (free upgrade, yay me) and I thought they were really put together well and albeit front wheel drive, still had the classic Cadillac torque power flex and engine grumble to let you know that it was a Cadillac. Growing up as a Cadillac kid, I immediately recognized it every time. It really wasn’t a bad car at all, just outclassed for sure.

I own and drive my grandfathers 1992 Deville. He cherished it very much, and out of its whole life span, only received 79,000 original miles. While yes, many other cars of the same year were running laps around the Deville in terms of styling, engineering, technology, etc, it just has that weird old Cadillac charm to it. Incredibly comfy with veeery soft suspension, and a V8 that, while it only churns out a relatively pathetic 200 HP, after you drive it, you realise it really doesn't matter. That same V8 produced a relatively healthy 275 lb ft of torque, and it's a very smooth torque curve that just glides you down the road. This car was never meant for sporty driving, (watch the Motorweek '89 Fleetwood review, yeeesh) so the car *reeeaally* didn't need extra power, but what it was meant for was setting the cruise control at 60-70 mph on the highway, and just relaxing. You guide it down the road with power steering that is so powerful, and I'm not kidding, you can drive with just your index finger. Combine that with seats that are so incredibly soft that you literally just sink into them, you just have to experience it. Of course, I'm biased because of this stupid thing called sentimental value, but all of these just add to the American luxury charm of it. And besides, at least it wasn't a Northstar car!

[@Kenneybrock]

Couldn't agree more. I blame auto reviewers like Motorweek for RUINING the luxury car. Cars in this class were NEVER meant to run though a slalom at 40 MPH, yet they were held to the same standard as a Corvette. Today's "luxury" cars ride more like sports cars with firm seating and tight steering and NOTHING like the Town Cars and Devilles from the pre-90's era.

[@alc.8415]

I second the agree. Funny thing is, though, the Koreans are resurrecting the traditional luxury car with the likes of various offerings from Hyundai (and now Genesis)... their main priority is luxury and comfort. Who knows, the reign of the stiff, hard, European luxury car might soon see the writing on the wall.

[@turnne]

@@Kenneybrock A full Mercedes S class from the same era is not a sports car What it was a solid engineered car that felt like you were driving a bank vault I think that " sloppy" vague ride with the over assisted steering and floaty suspension had gone the way of the Dodo bird...even by the 80's And then there was GM's obvious cost cutting measures and quality going downhill as well The Japanese were cleaning their clock on economy cars and the Germans were doing it on the high end

[@onefastslimjim]

@@turnne The Cadillac Deville was meant to appeal to the older generation, the generation that grew up and lived in the 50's-60's, where luxury cars like this were the norm. Its old school luxury. Everything is soft, the seats are soft, the steering is soft, the ride is soft, it's a big cruiser, just like Devilles of past. And I'm gonna be honest, while it maybe doesn't feel like you're driving a bank vault, because I will agree it does feel pretty vague, it's definitely built like one. You can't be soft when you shut the door, you gotta CLOSE it. It's a heavy door that closes with a noticeable thunk when you shut it, just like cars of the 50's and 60's. Every Switch is a metal switch that you gotta PRESS, and they respond with a loud click, just like older cars. It's not perfect, but this car was never trying to lead the luxury industry, it was an old school design philosophy that would appeal to generations of older. The generation that were looking at their final car before going to that guy upstairs in the sky, something that was familiar with soft suspension and a torquey smooth pushrod V8. That's what this car was made for.

The reason why VW cheated on emissions was due to the fact there was a 40 year culture of allowing foreign cars to arrive into the US making claims that were not true and nobody would really call them out on it. US auto industry was so regulated that even the production lines were subjected to extreme regulations that no other manufacturer had to meet.

Say what you will about this generation of Cadillac. These were such a nice upgrade from the DeVilles a couple generations prior. Sure, Lexus and Acura were taking over the market at that time in terms of fit & finish, build quality, and prestige, but you could never beat the soft ride of this generation of DeVille. No longer considered the first choice in executive motoring, they were still handsome cars in their day, and represented what is probably the last generation of genuine American luxury. My high school English teacher drove one of these everyday, and would often give me a lift to school in the mornings.

This car is amazing. And was a major improvement from earlier Cadillacs. This car was very powerful as well as beautiful.

Ahh 1993. When there was still hope. 04:24 hahahahahahahahaha

[@jamesslick4790]

I'd have preferred the Brougham, But the "ruined" the looks of the big RWD Cadillac in 93, So The Deville it is! Unless I got the Buick Roadmaster instead. LOL

[@nwezetx1]

"In 93" The RWD redesign came out at the same time as this video in 1992.

[@jamesslick4790]

The 1992 Cadillac Brougham (RWD) still had the 1980 sheetmetal, revised in '90 with dual headlights rather the quad headlights. Chevy and Buick had the "modern" RWD bodies earlier, in 1991.

[@califdad4]

This 89-93 DeVille style was a favorite of mine.

[@SystemofaLando]

Wow, this has more features than most base model cars in 2021. Really makes you think.

[@tony--james]

had one for years, it even had it's own code (OBD) diagnostics, using the "off" and "Warm" buttons on the heater controls.

[@jeromep3182]

This Cadillac is nice but but I own a 1991 BMW 735il with the inline 6 and in makes more power Than this V8 Cadillac I’m all fairness the bmw is a far better car

[@nwezetx1]

At nearly $60k in late 1990, it better have been.

[@SlimDON1182]

Only 8 more horsepower. But Cadillac 4.9 V8 was design mainly to put out a lot of low end Torque 275. That BMW Inline 6 only made 225 pound feet of torque.

[@jeromep3182]

@@SlimDON1182 even with the lower torque the bmw would still rip the Cadillac up off of the line rwd bmw vs fwd Cadillac and out maneuver run it on the top end too now that’s just the inline 6 model not to mention the 4.4 liter V8 740 or the V12 750 model of the same era. If the 6 cyl bmw is taking the caddy then you already know the V8 is really spanking th Cadillac if you go apples to apples

[@jesdadotcom]

The older 7-series were robust cars but maintenance costs are insane compared to 4.9L Pre-Northstar Cadillacs.

[@bighands69]

@@jeromep3182 Sorry but no body was racing those cars or testing their 0-60 times. They were both luxury cars but the Cadillac was at a higher level in the market than the BMW.

[@MarkWG]

My Mama owned a 1993 Cadillac Sedan de Ville in Rosewood Firemist. It was a surprise, 35th anniversary present from my father. My Mama loved that car so much, she even dusted it off inside the garage. She never drove further than about 25 miles a week. I drove it a number of times. Great car. Sadly, it was also her last car. Mama died from complications of intestinal cancer at the young age of 69 in 2011. Even though her Cadillac was almost 20 years old by then, she had only driven it 34,000 miles! Still garaged and still looked new. Sadder still, my father eventually handed it over to my undeserving baby brother who was extremely irresponsible. He quickly traded that beloved car for a beat-up, old pickup. Total fool. I was told long after it was too late to find.😢

[@richardmorris7063]

Not the most asteticly pleasing Cadillac ever. I'm sure they were great on a trip. I love my Cadillac,almost six yrs old & perfect.

[@parkedjeep96]

I can’t believe Delayed- off headlights, auto dimming rearview mirror and electric climate control features were already around in 93

[@marlontransporter]

Did she just say "designed for fun".........I haven't laugh like that in a while 😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣

[@mosterday]

if you laughed that hard over her saying "designed for fun", it might be time for you to get out more and socialize.. Even if you are curtailed by Covid-19 restrictions, you could always set up a zoom call with your friends, etc.

[@bluesharp59]

Nice video and gave a thumbs up for you. My wifes mom had the two door 93 and i did a burnout with it. She wasn't too happy but agreed how fast it was with the 4.9 powerplant.

I was accidentally come cross to this video, it’s amazing, I have a 1989 Buick Parkave, Ultra model, and it’s almost the same in every aspect except the car name and its model year and also built by GM. I rebuild the motor few years ago and it still running like new. I enjoy driving it.

[@EricLehner]

The graceful formality of this era is a joy to behold...

[@electrikoptik]

Compare this 1993 DeVille with a 1993 Lexus LS400. The lexus looks 20 years more advanced.

My friends grandma had a 1993. I remember getting in it and thinking that it was the fanciest car ever. I was used to my grandmother's beat up station wagon.

[@bighands69]

Your grandmother's beat up station wagon was probably far nicer than any modern car today. That Cadillac back then was would be like a high end Mercedes or Bentley.

[@trr5291]

@@bighands69 Grandma's station wagon was nice when they bought it it in 1979. Not so much when I was a kid in the 90's. It was a 1979 custom cruiser. She owned it until 2000. She traded it in for a 95 lumina. It was starting to have major issues. I remember riding in the back of the wagon with the dust from the headliner flying in our eyes. Good times.

[@bighands69]

@@trr5291 It still would have been a nicer car than the modern cars that were floating around. Most modern cars were horrible with absolutely no design soul at all.

[@ХозяинПолянки]

It is funeral car :) USA was in depression in 1989 and masons-parasites planed to evacuate from titanic. But they break up the USSR (ussr = united states, It British colony on a body of Russia) and steel money of the Ussr ,Yugoslavia and etc. So, they get permission for 20 years. Next step is 2001. When they used wartime laws :) So, it is very obvious depression of 2021. 2021 is like 1989. No industry (real work), all building are shit (brick houses of 19 are destroyed, only shitty frame houses from 60s), gangs, Blm from London, Obama from Niggeria-malaysia (glogalist without race, culture and state), So, I think that they will destroy all, and evacuate to London, Singapure

Cadillac had long lost it’s lustre years ago. Just look at that Cadillac it’s ugly look at the crapy leather seat. Nothing even close to what they had in the 80. Look at the ugly steering wheel everything looks cheap. Then later came the GM Suburban all done up as a Cadillac what a shit box. Cheers

They all had them crappy aluminum heads .I had 2 cads both heads crack.then my mom got one .head crack.then 2 family members got them a cad.
