Background Story of this 1978 Cadillac Seville

Overview of 1978 Cadillac Seville For Sale by Owner

When the Seville debuted in 1976, it was the smallest Caddy on sale, which is really saying something since it was still classed as a mid-size luxury car. Seville is derived from the name of a Spanish province that's renowned for its rich history and art culture. You can see where Cadillac was going with this, especially when you cast your eyes upon the opulence that this 1978 Cadillac Seville Grandeur Opera Coupe exudes. With just 63,000 miles on the odo, it's quite lightly used and ready to serve its next owner with grace and dignity.

Exterior and Interior

Sporting a mid-blue paint job and white vinyl-wrapped top, this 1978 Cadillac Seville Grandeur Opera Coupe does exude a bit of an over-the-top persona, particularly with the twin spare wheels nestled on the front wings. It may be small, but it's still a Caddy, with those quad headlamps, sheer chrome grille, and lovely wire wheels wearing white-striped tires. This Caddy may be small in size, but it's super-large in persona and presence. Why go for the humdrum when you can have this and turn heads wherever you go? Inside, it's a rich labyrinth of white leather and proper wood trim that looks and feels as real as it is, free from the multiple layers of varnish or lacquer that today's wood trim comes with. Being a Caddy, creature comforts abound, including climate control, power door locks, power windows, and power seats. There's a period-correct AM/FM radio as well, replete with a power antenna, and you'll even find cruise control to make highway driving that little bit easier.

Engine

It may be a small Caddy in a relative sense, but this 1978 Cadillac Seville Grandeur Opera Coupe still sports a proper, American, grumbly V8. It's a 350ci Oldsmobile unit that delivers 180hp to the rear wheels via a column-shifted 3-speed THM400 automatic transmission. If the power output sounds low, blame the Seventies and the Malaise Era for that. That, plus the significant weight meant that zero to sixty was an 11-second affair when new. Still, you don't want a car that'll shake you out of its plush seats each time you breathe on the gas, but something that'll carry you in a comfortable and stately manner.

PENDING SALE
$12,995
SOLD

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.

2007 Cadillac XLR V

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999

Based on a Corvette although you’d never guess by merely looking at it, the Cadillac XLR was a two-door luxury grand tourer made between 2003 and 2009. It came with a Northstar V8 under the hood, a power-retractable roof, an instrument cluster designed Bulgari, and all the luxury trappings you’d expect for something from Cadillac. While sales were modest, with just over 15,400 units sold during its time, the XLR is now becoming a future classic of sorts. It’s modern enough to drive in 2025, yet has that sort of lasting aura that ensures it will be around even in two or three decades time if maintained correctly. So, we’ve got a 2007 Cadillac XLR-V for sale from Andalusia, Alabama if you feel that an XLR belongs in your life. This particular car is particularly appealing because of its mileage of just 24,000!

1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham

PENDING SALE
$18,995

Cadillac’s full-size luxury sedan for twenty years, the Fleetwood served as the pinnacle offering from this iconic American luxury automaker between 1976 and 1996. The actual origins of Fleetwood are hazy, as it was used as a trim line on other Cadillacs since 1935, since Fleetwood was actually a coachbuilder who built bodies for automakers, most notably, Cadillac. The first proper Fleetwood model was actually front-wheel drive, with the second generation switching to rear-wheel drive. However, the Fleetwood Brougham remained rear-wheel drive, as is this 1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham from Ford Collins, Colorado. The car has got a 307 under the hood, and just over 25,000 miles on the clock.

1957 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$114,999

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.
