@@Georgiahulse gm was obsessed with front wheel drive fever in the 80s, like every car company but kept the brougham unchanged and big because the real traditional cadillac buyer base was horrified by all the small unibody front drive crap. This was a profitable car for gm, they just tweaked the styling over a 77 to 92 model run
The Brougham as a separate model ended in 1992. The SHORTER FWD cars you are talking about are the DeVilles. In 1993-1996 The Fleetwood (including the Brougham trim package) were 4 inches LONGER and had RWD as well.
amazing man I always wanted a all blue one but wen I saw the bright red interior I fell in love I got a 92 brougham gunmetal grey paint with bright red inside I'm happy mine is still great except for driver seat, top and molding also a bit of hail damage I'll upload a video sum day
That auto closing function on the trunk that occurs after you close it was put on to make sure that if there were to many bodies in the trunk that it would still shut securely...
Beautiful car, powerless, weak POS engine. From the 1981 V8-6-4(cylinder reactivation unplugged), with the exception of the 1982-85 5.7 diesel, Cadillac suffered with powerless engines. The diesel was a decent engine by 1982-83...but the public was so soured.
>Michael Cook: Well my parents had a 91 Brougham with a fuel injected 5.0 and it was strong as an ox for it's time. Had no problems burning the back tire or keeping up with or passing traffic. Even in 100 degree weather with the AC on, that lil 305 could scoot.
@@TeeroyHammermill I admit, I had experience with the carburated model in 1988. It was actually a 307, Olds built engine. I researched, and for 91&92, they dropped the 307 Olds and did use the 305 Chevy, as you said. If your parents car run that good, they must have changed rear axle and trans gears ratios...which is very possible. I did drive a 92 Brougham with the Chevy LT1 Corvette engine...oh, yea...faster than the 77-79 425 4V. The last couple years Cadillac offered the Brougham, it was flat out ugly. The one your folks had was a beautiful car.
@@michaelcook768: Nah they didn't change anything. It was all bone stock but it was a better setup than 80's models. 91 Brougham stock powertrain setup was the following: 170hp/255tq 5.0L (305 cid) Throttle Body Injected V8 from Chevrolet Division, 700R4 Trans, 3.08:1 rear end. The springs and shocks were higher rate resulting in a higher ride height than 80's models. Rear sway bar and variable ratio power steering was standard to improve handling. It was a great car that would run rings around my 87 Brougham I had.
@@TeeroyHammermill Oh, I didn't intend to infer your parents changed anything, I was thinking GM did. Even the ratios of each gear would make a difference. I know the earlier 307 had 140hp. But, the 1982 Deville, with the HT4100...you could out run it on foot the first 50 feet easily. I was in sales then....it was an embarrassment...and they used it for a couple years before they used the 307. To be honest, by 82, the 350 Diesel had been fixed...it ran well and got close to 30 mpg on trips...27 easily. But, GM soured so many. If they had turbocharged it with a higher OD gear, it could have performed at 30-32 mpg...and they would have put America on par with Europe with diesel usage. I will get this...the diesel in the F150 will end up in the Expidition and the Lincoln. GM will probably follow suit with Colorado's diesel in mid size SUV. I hate that sedans, for American companies, will be a thing of the past. I grew up in the 70s...I loved the cars of the 70s and 80s.
@@TeeroyHammermill I did some more looking and stumbled on this..1990-92 used the 5.0(305) and 5.7 Chevy only..all with fuel injection..with a 4L60 trans...which was the upgrade from the 700R4 The ones with the 5.0(307 Olds)never fuel injection, uses a 200R4
It's only stock once. I'd rather have a car with stock caps than some hideous aftermarket crap that some ghetto owner plunked on there when the originals were stolen.
Beautiful car but so incredible that the US was still producing cars like this as late as 1992 -- it looks like a time capsule from the late 1970s.
Georgiahulse likely because this body style began in 1977.
Exactly my point - amazing it hadn’t changed or developed in those 15 years.
It's simple. People wanted cars like these. So they kept making them for those people.

That car is built better than 99% of all the cars around it in the video!!!
Drove mine to Florida and to Maryland , dream car.
These are the best cruisers ever made.
This looks exactly like the car Mr Jim Weichert, of Weichert Realtors™ drove back in the Day. Still absolutely gorgeous!

This Cadillac reminds me of my wife-dark and lovely.
Beautiful Cadillac, I've always liked these cars since were new.
It used be my dream car back in my childhood and I still have the desire to own one someday
Magnificent automobile. Thankyou for posting this classic

It is a good car for a student ?

Vehicle Reviews You would not be disappointed.

You are one lucky man that's a hell of car
Damn!
Rear Cadillac emblem script is missing over the 5.0 emblem
77 92 Styling for 15 years.
Actually 1977-'79 was a separate generation/different bodystyle. 1980 started this bodystyle, all the way to 1992
I want one.
My dream car 🙌 ! It is a good car for a student ?
