  • In this video I give a full in depth tour of a beautiful American classic, a 1989 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Brougham, 305 ci 5.0 V8. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

    Beautiful car, Kyle. They truly don't build them like this anymore, full sized, quiet comfort, smooth
    V/8 power, simple, easily understood controls, and an ample sized trunk. You're not going to find that in today's SUV, CUV, EVO car world!

    One of the last of the true old school cars, before *everything* that looks like metal turned into plastic for the '93 model year.

      I would too. I was thinking eventually getting another Lincoln which I have a 2006 Town Car but I'm back to thinking if I should get a newer model Lincoln or get an older car such a Cadillac Brougham for an example. GM had great looking cars back then even Ford & Mercury as well.

Now, this car is in beautiful condition. What a great find. My Brother in Law has a `93 that came from a 87 years young Lady that got a new Malibu. Her son bought her a car that was smaller because he felt the size of the Caprice was too large for safe driving of his aging Mom.
