Cadillac may have been renowned for gargantuan land yachts in the Fifties and Sixties, but by the Seventies, the Malaise Era was in full swing, and customers were downsizing. America's best-known luxury brand knew that they needed a smaller car. Cue the Seville, which debuted in 1975. Named after a Spanish province rich in history and art, Cadillac would keep the nameplate going until 2004, when the STS replaced it. This 1978 Cadillac Seville is a fine first-generation reminder of what a relatively downsized Cadillac was like at the beginning of its life. This car has seen 100,000 miles, but the current owner reports it to have undergone some freshening up.
Exterior and Interior
Mint Green is a very Seventies color, and this 1978 Cadillac Seville is a Seventies car. Thus, it looks like a time capsule from the past. Quad headlamps, chrome bumpers, a squarish shape, and a top in a darker hue all contribute to its charm. Take a closer look, and you'll note the requisite badging, as well as chrome wheels, which have reportedly received new tires. Overall, the car appears to be in great condition, save for some surface rust here and there that can easily be addressed by a capable body shop. Inside, it's quintessential American luxury within what's said to be an original interior. We see power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, cruise control, climate control with air conditioning, intermittent wipers and a push-button radio. All these controls are ensconced within plenty of wood trim that has aged but in a good way. Rear seat passengers receive map lights with the Cadillac crest next to them, as well as ashtrays, in an era when smoking within the confines of a car was the norm. Speaking of seats, they're all plush and comfy; you'll sink into them happily.
Engine
This 1978 Cadillac Seville is powered by a 350ci (5.7L) V8 with electronic fuel injection that drives the rear wheels via a THM-400 three-speed automatic gearbox. The current owner reports that the car has received a recent oil change, tune-up, and new brakes. Power output when new was said to be 180hp, which is ample for a luxury car that's meant to be driven in a smooth and careful manner.
Cadillac may be best known for their massively opulent land yachts that really pushed the boundaries of full-size cars, but did you know that they had smaller options? In fact, they still do. Between 1976 and 2004, their midsize luxury car was the Seville. Named after a Spanish province renowned for art and architecture, today’s 1985 Cadillac Seville comes from the second generation of the nameplate. It’s got only 13,272 miles on its 4.1-liter throttle body injected V8, and features a four-speed automatic transmission. Interestingly, the car is front-wheel drive, as was typical back in the day. If you’d like to acquire this rather interesting piece of Eighties Americana, it’s currently up for grabs in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
The Cadillac Seville was Caddy's stab at the personal luxury car segment, and they took it to new levels altogether. Debuting for the 1976 model year, you could buy an Seville all the way up to 2004. This 1976 Cadillac Seville Bicentennial Edition is from the first generation and was made to celebrate America's 200th Birthday. Up for sale with 70,300 miles on the clock, it's a great symbol of Americana for you to purchase and drive, as well as a savvy investment.

The 2006 Cadillac XLR represents one of Cadillac’s most ambitious modern-era grand tourers, combining dramatic styling, an aluminum-intensive chassis, a power-retractable hardtop, and V8 performance in a two-seat roadster. Sharing its basic architecture with the contemporary Corvette but tuned around Cadillac’s luxury mission, the XLR was intended to compete with premium European retractable-hardtop GTs while showcasing technologies such as Magnetic Ride Control. Showing approximately 10,551 miles, this Black Raven example pairs its low-slung roadster profile with an Ebony cabin, Dark Eucalyptus wood trim, and a naturally aspirated 4.6L V8, making it a particularly appealing low-mileage example of Cadillac’s distinctive flagship convertible.
This 2019 Cadillac CT6-V represents one of Cadillac’s most ambitious modern performance sedans, pairing flagship-level luxury with the hand-built Blackwing V8 and a chassis developed specifically for serious performance. Finished in Manhattan Noir Metallic over a Dark Auburn leather interior with Jet Black accents, this example combines understated executive styling with V-Series hardware including Magnetic Ride Control, active rear steering, Brembo brakes, an active-valve exhaust system, and extra-capacity cooling. The Rear Seat Package and Driver Assist Package add another layer of comfort and technology, while features such as the Bose Panaray 34-speaker sound system, UltraView power sunroof, head-up display, and 12-inch reconfigurable gauge cluster reinforce its flagship character. Showing approximately 5,060 miles, this CT6-V stands out as a remarkably low-mileage example of Cadillac’s short-lived Blackwing-powered super sedan.
This 1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham delivers the full-size luxury presence that defines Cadillac’s traditional rear-wheel-drive sedan formula. Finished in Cotillion White with a White padded vinyl roof over a Dark Claret Heather Cloth interior, it presents a distinctly formal appearance inside and out. Its equipment includes 15-inch steel wheels with wire-spoke wheel covers, chrome bumpers and bodyside moldings, cornering lamps, power windows and locks, automatic climate control, woodgrain interior trim, an illuminated entry system, and a Sony XR-2300 AM/FM cassette stereo. Showing approximately 92,289 miles, this Fleetwood Brougham combines traditional Cadillac styling with a 5.0-liter V8 and a comfortable, luxury-oriented cabin.
