The last of the true American rear-wheel-drive land cruisers, this 1989 Cadillac Brougham provides a ride like nothing youve ever driven before. If youre already a fan, I dont have to tell you about the almost unbelievable feeling of isolation inside, and if youre looking for your first hobby car, this might be a great choice, because there will never be anything like it again. Driven around 2500 miles per year, this car definitely doesnt look its age. Sparkling white paint with a matching padded vinyl roof were great choices for a car in the warm, sunny south like this one, and it still looks impressive today. The long bodywork stretches nearly 19 feet, and it was the longest car in production in 1989, just in case size matters. Clearly someone has been taking good care of it, because all four doors fit well (they used extra seals on the Brougham to ensure silence inside), the paint has a fantastic shine, and the chrome looks almost new. There are no winters in this cars history, so rust is a non-issue, and despite the fact that the design dates back to the late-70s, it has aged quite gracefully and still looks great today. The padded roof shows almost no discoloration, no tears, and no rust issues underneath, which is typically a frequent issue with cars like this from up north. Cadillacs top-of-the-line looks the part with a sumptuous white leather interior with navy blue accents. The seats are still supportive and supple, the perfect place to eat up hundreds of miles in relaxed comfort. Every available power accessory was standard equipment, including dual power seats, power windows, power locks, cruise control, a tilt wheel, and automatic climate control. The navy blue carpets and dash look great with the white leather, offering a somewhat nautical feel which seems appropriate in this vintage land yacht. The back seat offers accommodations that you might only find in a limousine these days, with stretch-out legroom that could probably qualify for its own zip code. The original AM/FM/cassette stereo sounds great in the hushed cabin, and the massive trunk includes its original mats, spare, and jack assembly. The engine is a 307 cubic inch V8, not from Cadillac but Oldsmobile. Reliable, unobtrusive and smooth, its the ideal powerplant for a luxury cruiser like this. No, it wont win you any drag races, but it loafs along at 80 MPH without a single vibration or sound intruding into the cabin, and you just know this car was designed for guys in Texas who like to haul across the desert at 100 MPH. Its nicely maintained, and thanks to its low mileage, just getting broken in, as these cars are known to run for more than 100,000 miles without needing much more than oil changes. A 4-speed automatic transmission helps with the luxury mission with smooth shifts, and the suspension rides like a cloud regardless of the load, thanks to an automatic leveling system. 15-inch wheels with stock wire wheelcovers have been shod with 225/75/15 whitewall radials, as original. Cars like this not only represent a ton of sheetmetal for the money, where else are you going to get a full-sized, V8-powered Cadillac for the price of a 10-year-old Honda? Call today!
