For consignment, a 1991 Cadillac Seville Sedan with a title verified 51,933 actual miles. This sedan was a single family owned car until recently andrepresents everything great about the early 90's luxury line and the newly reduced size that was met with some consternation from Cadillac loyalists at first, then was embraced for the more efficient size.

Exterior
It may have been downsized, but that didn't stop Cadillac from including cosmetic luxury styling cues throughout the exterior, beginning with the mirror finish on the wide trim band that encircles the car with subtle contrast to the Light Sapphire Blue Metallic paint. Other luxury touches are found in the Cadillac script call outs, hood ornament and elongated side marker light which illuminates turns, a feature reserved for the best of the best in this era. Our compact Caddy has composite headlights up front, a stately eggcrate grille, and horizontal tail lights under a broad decklid that will afford low load height. Unique 15-inch alloy wheels were standard, here wrapped in white walls and looking nice. In fact, the entire car is in stupendous condition with some mild oxidation of the rear window trim noted as the only imperfection on this coddled Caddy.

Interior
Come with us, back to the early 90's and feast your eyes upon the blue door panels with integrated controls in a monochrome and tidy presentation. While the electric switches could have been from GM's parts bin, in the Caddy, they are framed in piano black faceplates for a more upscale feel. The blue leather bucket seats are wide and biscuit tufted, wearing an embroidered Cadillac crest and electric controls at the side and along with the rear bench, present in excellent condition. In back, the pattern is shared and includes a fold away arm rest in the center and a lap belt for a third passenger. Opera lights ride the C-pillar, a feature reserved for GM's higher trim levels. Up front, it's groundbreaking digitation, a black screen surrounded by simulated burlwood that lights up with segmented green digits and a slew of idiot lights. Black and silver switchgear occupy the rest of the dash including the Delco AM/FM/Cassette radio to the right. A/C and a "Driver Information Center" is in the center stack, allowing owners to scroll through various status points relayed by the car's computer. In the center console, a tidy T-handle shifter rises from a woodgrain base ahead of a robust armrest, all over plush blue carpet that is toes deep and clean, protected by dealer type plastic liner. The felt lined foam backed headliner is in nice shape and gray cloth panels fully finish the trunk which is topped by an additional Cadillac branded mat. The interior still smells good and is a blue time capsule!

Drivetrain
Sparkling clean under the hood is the 4.9 liter V8, fuel injected and putting out 200 horsepower. It's mated to a 4T60E 4-speed automatic transmission that keeps power up front, routing it through 2.97 gears.

Undercarriage
Unless you count the cobwebs, the underside is super clean with surface rust reserved for the exhaust only and no errant fluids anywhere. Much of the bottom is covered by flat belly pans and it's likely this car never saw rain or snow. Four wheel power disc brakes are on board and independent suspension is supplied to front and rear as well, with Macpherson struts in front and a transflex leaf in back. The single exhaust travels through a stock style muffler and expels a single wrinkle bent tailpipe.

Drive-Ability
The comfortable interior doesn't disappoint and has plenty of room while still feeling a bit cozy. The V8 is a quick starter, and we move the floor mounted shifter to Drive and roll through the test loop. No complaints here, the car has good power, a square footprint that tracks straight, and handles well. The driver's front window does not go all the way up and only halfway to the sill. Also, the radio turns on but the only sound from the speakers is a whine. We checked the cassette player for a Yoko Ono tape, but it is empty. Beyond these things, all functions on this little luxury cruiser work as they should, including the digital readouts! While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

Despite its sporty size and V8 engine, this is a luxury car, providing a comfortable ride around town with seats designed for relaxing, not racing. If you had one in your life, perhaps a parent or grandparent, you likely have fond memories of the car and here's a very well preserved example that can bring it all back.
