The Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham was a short-lived model from 1977 to 1986, as Cadillac's pinnacle full-size luxury car. Available as a sedan or coupe, we've got a fine example of a 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan in our inventory right now, with just 6,300 miles, as reported by the current owner. This Bill Mitchell-designed land yacht is a perfect reminder of how opulent American luxury cars could become. Why not buy this well-preserved classic and relive those days?
Exterior and Interior
Brown is a very Seventies color, which is where this 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan hails from. That's why it looks right in its Golden Brown paint job, a feat that many modern cars would struggle to pull off. Quad headlamps, wire-effect wheels, a vinyl-wrapped roof, the Cadillac hood-mounted logo, and long overhangs all embody the stereotypical American land yacht. This car comes in at 221 inches in length, with a 121.4-inch wheelbase, so you can imagine how much overhang there is. Inside, you've got a tan interior with plenty of wood trim on the dash and door cards. There's plush leather buttoned seating for five adults, and we are told that the front seats are power adjustable. The door locks and windows are power operated as well; there's said to be air conditioning and even cruise control for the ultimate in hassle-free driving at the time. The doors themselves are hefty affairs with plenty of padding for the armrests and spacious ashtrays to accommodate the copious amounts of cigar ash generated by the well-heeled from the Seventies and Eighties. They've also got reading lamps, as this was the pre-smartphone era when passengers talked to each other or simply read a book to pass the time. They could also fire up the Cadillac Symphonic Sound System, which included a radio and an auto-reverse tape player.
Engine
This Land Yacht of a 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan has a 6.0-liter L62 V8 driving the rear wheels via an automatic transmission.
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.
With a name like Fleetwood, you’d think that the vehicle in question was large, luxurious and basically a land yacht. That’s precisely what the Cadillac Fleetwood was, and it has been a stand-alone nameplate, as well as a trim line. Today, we’ve got a 1976 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special Brougham from Whitehouse, Tennessee up for sale, with pre-delivery inspection, owner’s manual, warranty information and maintenance schedules included. This massive land yacht with its hulking 500ci V8 has done only 51,000 miles, and is a great classic car to own and drive.
The term "cruising" is enjoyed and experienced in multiple ways; one could take a fast car and cruise into the weekend on twisty roads, you could also have a luxury motor that's built for purpose, but for those who know would always say cruising is done best behind the wheel of a old American land yacht. Present today is this 1975 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special Brougham – perhaps the ultimate cruiser and has a reported 63,000 original miles on the clock. What's better? The current owner reports the car's owner's manual and a car cover is included in the sale.
The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing represents one of the wildest modern interpretations of the American luxury sport sedan: a supercharged V8 up front, rear-wheel drive underneath, and the kind of performance hardware that makes it just as appealing to enthusiasts as it is to luxury-car buyers. This 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing has traveled approximately 14,370 miles and is finished in Summit White over a Sky Cool Gray leather interior with Jet Black accents. Beyond its already formidable factory specification, this example has been further personalized with an aftermarket ECU tune, aftermarket exhaust, carbon fiber body kit, and carbon fiber hood, giving it an even more aggressive character than a standard Blackwing.
The 1967 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe represents a landmark chapter in Cadillac history as the brand’s first front-wheel-drive Eldorado generation, combining advanced engineering with the unmistakable presence of a full-size American luxury coupe. Powered by Cadillac’s massive 472ci V8 and finished with elegant proportions, this Eldorado has been customized with a range of upgrades while maintaining its classic character. Finished in White with a White/Brown interior, this example shows approximately 92,444 miles and features a custom paint job, reupholstered interior, aftermarket air ride suspension, upgraded air conditioning system, and refreshed mechanical components reported by the current owner.
The 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz represents the height of Cadillac’s personal luxury coupe era, combining imposing styling, effortless V8 power, and an exceptional level of comfort and refinement. As the flagship Eldorado trim, the Biarritz added exclusive styling details and upscale appointments that set it apart from the standard model, creating one of Cadillac’s most recognizable luxury coupes of the late 1970s. Finished in Colonial Yellow with a matching Yellow leather interior, this example shows approximately 40,571 miles and features desirable period options including a factory Cadillac telephone system, Biarritz luxury trim, and formal padded roof treatment. This Eldorado Biarritz captures the distinctive character of an era when Cadillac represented the ultimate in American luxury motoring.
