1993 Cadillac Fleetwood review from North America

Cracked dash. Hard to find a 93 Fleetwood without a cracked dash. One cannot find a plastic dash cover for this model Fleetwood. I settled for a cloth cover.

Driver's seat worn badly but the rest of the leather is in great shape.

I replaced the water pump, the bearings were starting to go on this item.

Right rear passenger window is starting to stick. I suspect window guide rollers need replacing.

Paint is thin. Some kind of plastic coating put on the paint is peeling on passenger door.

Backup light lens falling off. I hear that this is a typical problem with this model car. This part is no longer made by GM. Fixed what I had and screwed it back into place.

Front and rear bumpers show rust from the inside. Chrome is still in great shape. It is easy to take the bumpers off and apply no rust paint.

I am 6'5" tall and the drivers seat offers plenty of leg and headroom.

The front passenger seat does not provide as much legroom.

Rear seat legroom is fantastic for people of normal height. Not so great for me but I do most of the driving on our weekend trips to the mountains.

A very nice comfortable ride.

Some wind noise on the highway but not bad.

Everything works on this base model Fleetwood. No heated seats or lumbar support to break.

The 1993 Fleetwood has the old style water pump, throttle body fuel injection, rear drum brakes, standard rear axle bearings and differential. This is why I bought the car. Easy maintenance and I know I can go many miles without trouble.

Inexpensive parts from auto supply stores. Dashboards,in prefect shape, and many body parts are available at a good price from wrecking yards.

Gas mileage, driving up and down the mountains of New Hampshire, has been 24MPG highway with the temperature at 65 degrees. 13MPG around town with some hard accelerating. 90 percent highway and 10 percent city driving, Temp. 60 degrees, I averaged 22MPG.
