1982 Cadillac Sedan Deville & Coupe Deville Promo Video

Get me to the church on time!

Lovers of “real” Cadillac huge, rear–wheel drive V8′s continued to enjoy this behemoth. Cadillac boasted that the DeVille and Brougham’s 221 inch overall length made it the largest car produced in North America at the time. Limousines (lots of them) were specially equipped with heavy duty components. If you’re old enough, chances are your spouse was driven to the church in one of these, if you’re older, this may be your last automobile ride period! Since it seems like these big old Cadillacs have been going to church for years and years. And they’ll probably continue to do so for some time yet

    GORGEOUS. I really like this line of cars and would happily drive a nice example as my daily driver. In fact, I guess sometime soon would be the time to pick one up since they’ll probably only go up in price from this point forward.

    What surprised me in this video was the range of engine size choices. I had no idea.

      That was a problem on all 1982 Cadillacs as they were painted in two stages. Some dealerships repainted the cars. We had an 82 Fleetwood we ordered. It was junk mechanically but a handsome car. I love these old flims.

    Is it just me, or does the paint color on the front fenders not match the rest of the car at all?

      Yeah… I think it’s the metallic making it look that way. If they don’t spray the parts in the same direction, it can look like that. Another sign of amazing quality control…

    GM put so much effort into the gadgety crap on this car when they should have been fixing the lousy engine and transmission. But that’s GM.

    Still, it’s interesting to see some of the “luxury” features on this car that are all standard on cars now, like outside temp, cruise, auto climate, auto headlights, etc.

    It’s strange that Audi later subcontracted GM to provide the same Electronic Climate Control panel in their cars.

    At 41 sec.- do you think maybe they could have gotten one that has the front quarter match the doors for the video?

    1982 has got to be an all time low for poor Cadillac. Just look at the engine lineup for proof.

    Your base engine was the new HT-4100 DFI V8 engine that put out
    125 Hp and 190 torque or
    for a credit of $125.00 you got Buicks 4.1 liter 4 BBL V6 with
    125 Hp and 210 torque or for a lot more money Oldsmobiles 5.7 liter 105 HP 200 torque diesel was offered all hooked to GM 200 R-4 transmission.

    And this was a 3900-4200 LB full size car depending on which model was selected.
