1983 Cadillac DeVille Coupe review from North America
"Ocean liner on wheels"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Trunk lid pistons failed. Replaced for $40.
Power window motors very slow.
Headliner was replaced.
Uses a little bit of oil and has a very small leak.
Tape player is a little buggy.
General comments?
Pretty good on gas for a car its size.
Very roomy interior and trunk.
Great car to drive, but forget about parallel parking.
Rides like a dream.
The car is kind of a dog off the line, but it gets going on the highway.
Has been known to turn some heads.
