Cadillac's interestingly-named De Ville series of full-size luxury cars has a history spanning eight generations and 46 years. The term De Ville is French, signifying 'of the town,' indicating that Cadillac intended these cars to be the talk of the town. Now, you can be the talk of your town if you purchase this reportedly all-original 1970 Cadillac De Ville Convertible today. A fine third-generation example, it's done just over 83,000 miles to reach you and comes with plenty of character.
This imposing 1970 Cadillac De Ville Convertible measures 225 inches from tip to tail and spreads across nearly 80 inches of the road from side to side. Clearly, a car for those who wish to make a statement, the rich red paint job and contrasting white roof perfectly accomplish this, as to the quad headlamps and imposing chrome grille. Even the side mirrors have the Cadillac script daintily etched into their housings. You'll find wreaths framing the door key holes, and wire-effect wheels wear white-striped tires in true Seventies luxury fashion. As we're informed that this is an all-original and thus unrestored example, you'll find a few blemishes and rough edges here and there, so go easy on this 53-year-old luxury land yacht. As you step into this 1970 Cadillac De Ville Convertible's interior, you'll notice Cadillac-crested floor mats, plush black seats, and wood trim along the dash and door cards. Amenities include an analog clock, a push-button radio, climate control, a power convertible top, and power windows. A plaque within the door sills informs you that the body was made by Fisher, and the interior is the work of Fleetwood. This was quite common for luxury car makers back in the day to entrust separate specialists with body, interior and mechanical work. The trunk of this all-original example shows the car's age but is in admirable condition and can be used. It's also home to the full-size spare wheel, a rarity in modern cars.
A monstrous 472ci (7.7L) overhead valve V8 engine powers the land yacht and develops over 350 horsepower to move it in an appropriate fashion. A three-speed TH-400 automatic transmission is tasked with sending power to the rear wheels.
The Cadillac De Ville was introduced in 1958, as a full-size luxury car from America’s top luxury automaker at the time. De Ville means “of the town” in French, meaning that Cadillac intended the De Ville to be the talk of the town. The first generation is the most popular, naturally, thanks to its iconic shape and rear fins. In 1961, the second generation was introduced, with fresh styling and more body styles. Buyers could now pick from a four-door hardtop with four or six windows, a 2-door hardtop, or a 2-door convertible. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a De Ville, check out this 56,435-mile 1964 Cadillac De Ville Sedan that’s up for sale right now. The current owner reports it to have been restored, hence its pristine appearance.
The De Ville name was first introduced as a standalone model range in 1959 and would remain a significant part of the Cadillac lineup up till 2005. The 4th generation came in 1971, and every subsequent year brought styling changes until the smaller 5th generation was released in 1977. 1974 brought changes to the front end (like a new grille and a new headlamp layout), and the introduction of a new option; the Air Cushion Restraint System (what is now known as airbags) for both front-seat occupants. It was, however, a costly option that didn’t prove popular among buyers and was discontinued after 1976. A 1971 Coupe De Ville reportedly came 3rd in the Cannonball Run, averaging 84.6mph and 8.9mpg.
The Cadillac DeVille saw no less than eight generations and the name "DeVille" is derived from the French de la ville or de ville meaning "of the town". The second generation of the DeVille ended in 1964 and by that time the model was redesigned to be sleeker and more powerful. It was one of the best 1960s luxury automobiles and also something that is sure to turn heads up and down the street, at over 18 and a half feet long. That is to say, riding in a big Cadillac as the DeVille feels like floating on a cloud! This is your chance to experience this rare opportunity or add it to your prestigious classic car collection. This 1964 Cadillac DeVille is available for sale showing 133,000 miles on its clock.
Throughout the years Cadillac has been perceived as an automotive brand that's best enjoyed in the passenger seat, it's meant for cruising in style and class with any mention of performance coming second. Throw it back to the 2000s and that wasn't the case, Cadillac broke away from its silky smooth personality and gave the world the XLR, a machine built to take on performance powerhouses with blistering performance and style. Present today is this 2006 Cadillac XLR Roadster, this modern classic is the perfect balance of performance and Cadillac luxury and is reported to have only 96,539 miles on its clock.
Among those who enjoy driving about in good-looking cars, there is a small group who prefer the look of a mundane car with a classic historic flare. If that is your cup of tea, this 1993 Cadillac Allante is an excellent choice for you. While it blends well with day-to-day traffic, it boasts a stately personality. After all, it is a Cadillac. It was marketed as a two-seater luxury roadster, so it looks even classy with its top down. The Allante model saw a seven-year production run and the bodies were built in Italy by iconic coachbuilder Pininfarina. Our subject example only has 65,000 miles on its clock and is currently residing in Florida. Its owner claims that it comes with 3 keys and all the service is up to date.

Do you want a muscle car experience in a compact car body? That’s what Plymouth aimed to provide, with the Duster. Made between 1969 and 1976, the Duster was their two-door coupe in the compact car segment. However, Plymouth still endowed it with V8s of varying capacities, ensuring that buyers didn’t get the typically pedestrian performance that came with compact cars. If you’re interested in getting your hands on a Duster, check out this 1970 Plymouth Duster Restomod that’s for sale right now. The car has been completely restored and rocks some neat modern features.
Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
One of the most popular luxury midsize cars, the Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class, was introduced in 1984. Since then, this sturdy German cruiser has gained a reputation for being the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’s bulletproof build quality and reliability. It was made as a sedan, coupe, convertible and estate. Up for sale today is a pleasant 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300CE two-door pillarless coupe with a scant 99,157 miles on the odometer. We say scant because it’s not difficult for these cars to quickly rack up mid or high six-figure mileages. So, if you want a practical modern classic that can possibly outlive you, here’s the golden ticket. The car comes with two keys, the original manual, and is reported to have all servicing done up to date.
