Hey! That’s my car!
She's a beauty 😍
@@blueheart_92 Thank you so much!
Beautiful 😍. I also have a 94, Diamond white with black top. Smooth and beautiful, love the 4.9.
@@jefferystackhouse3434 mine is the pearl white and I’ve grown to like the color
@@dave11686 Yes, yours is pretty, the blue sets it off. Depending on lighting the diamond looks tan like the interior and other times looks white. Love our Caddies 👍.
I drove 1993 Sedan Deville for 8 years. It was powerful, reliable and comfortable! I have a 1991 Fleetwood coupe that I'm restoring now. These 4.9V8 Cadillacs are amazing! I also have a big body 1990 Brougham d' Elegance 5.7V8 and l love it! I really love Cadillacs!
This is my daily driver- mine is a lovely maroon. I have the 4.9 as well with about 180k and no issues. It’s been a nice car that over 3 years ago I paid $600 for and it’s taught me a lot too. Love it
how will does it doe in the snow?
@@aiirraidzz506 I had excellent luck with it in the snow. I live in upstate NY and it was a trooper in the snow and even light icy conditions. The weight of the car is helpful along with it being a front wheel drive car. I recommend getting nice snow tires and you shouldn’t have much issue
@@Haffmatthew thank you!!
I found one locally for 6000 62k miles I’m considering getting it lol
@@jonathancastillo8802 that sounds like
One that I would yearn for too
amazingly my family has a devil from 1999 with the Northstar we actually go from my grandmother for free and it has over 200k miles still running great
The exterior looks lovely, the interior looks like a real relaxed place to be. I bet its a great car for just cruising along soaking up the views. I think cadillac would do well to have a trim level that is just huge pillowy seats super soft suspension, auto pilot and maybe a some classic badges.
I love hearing other people love connections of Cadillacs to their grandparents. I'm in the same boat. When I was little, my grandma drove a 1983 Eldorado. That car is my earliest car memory. While the car is long gone, I have the hood ornament and all of the emblems off of it. My grandma was also an assembly line worker at Cadillac. She started in 1976 at the legendary Clark Street Assembly Plant in Detroit. She was there until the plant closed, and from there she went over to Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly until retirement in the late 1990s. Ever since I knew what a Cadillac was as a child, I always wanted one. Finally got one in March 2020, a red 2008 DTS. I don't plan on it being my last Cadillac either. I never let go of that childhood dream of having a Cadillac.
My great grandmother just gave me her candy red 96 Brougham with 22k miles. It's getting delivered end of month I'm stoked.
Bro you took the words right out of my mouth. I own a. Towncar amd now a 94 4.9 deville sedan after owning a 4.9 Seville. I fall im love every time i sit in them all. Its total nostalgia and you captured it so perfectly. You deserve more props for this video. You put soul into it.
Almost bought one of these with 72k miles but the engine was a leaky mess. Sad thing is no matter how well built the 4.9 is, it’s not immune to aging gaskets.
Love that you review more regular like cars it’s such a pleasant blast from the past. I have a 94 concours with the 4.6 230k and not a problem
I Love this Channel! I relate to you a lot. Shooting Cars, Savage Geese, Steve Hammes, Throttle House & Straight Pipes are my main reviews I look forward to! Your Channels gonna blow up I just know it💪🏽
I had a 91 Seville with the same 4.9 and that thing easily lit up the front tires and had a 0-60 in just under 6 seconds. It was amazing!
Thank you. One of the best car reviews I've seen on TH-cam.
The "Northstar" issue is between '95-99 when GM used short head gasket bolts. Many Nstars running past 200k from 2000 and up once GM fixed it.
LJ Morris, that is good to know. Thank you for informing us. Thumbs up on your comment.
I have a 94 Concours and I put the heavy duty head bolts in before I had any trouble. It couldn't be more reliable, efficient or satisfying. @@ababbit7461
Happy that I found this; have wondered how the 4.9 performed. I think this generation of DeVille was a lot better looking and more elegant than the 2000+ generation.
Beautiful review I'm buying a black on black 94 tommorow gorgous ....70 thousand miles the seats are immaculate as well as the body and the rag and sunroof ! ❤
Awesome Video! My stepdad had a 93 sts (pearl white) Passed it on to me when I was 15 but then the engine blew up 6 months later 😆😐
So now I have a 1995 DeVille Concours, bought it in april 2019 with 184,000 now today shes got 204,988... And still rides like a freakin ☁ and you're right about the level of comfort somedays I love to go for long drives just for the heck of it lol I also really like the seat switches on the door as well they're easy to reach unlike most cars today that almost have them hidden lol You just gotta love and appreciate these big beautiful luxurious land yachts, Again great video ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Noo way, this Trunks lock Is exactly like the One on my parents car, Alfa 146! But This cadillac, Man. All those switches that actually Tells you anything... all that confort... That makes my Heart melt. Warm hug Is perfect definition. Thanks for this video.
Hey Zack,
I ended up buying an 89 DeVille 2 days ago!
Somebody's grandmother moving into senior home, they were selling.
1989, 1 owner, no rust (in Chicago) always kept in garage.
124K miles. Original everything. In decent condition. Everything works (including soft close trunk door) other than one speaker in front, probably needs a blower motor resistor (blows hot and cold bit not from dash vents)
New belts, new tires. Still plenty of power for me. Not looking for a race car. It still picks up nicely, in a Cadillac way. Front wheel drive is nicer in Midwest Winters imo. And those who like/need ton of torque, speed, agility, wouldn't get a DeVille anyway
Love the original speedometer
Fantastic narration and presentation..I'm getting one asap!! ,👌👍🤘
Gorgeous car and great memories. Thanks Zack for this piece of americana.
Raf from Italy.
Thanks for the enjoyable review,
We have a sick friend selling us his 93 Sedan DeVille for a very good price. Its a burgundy creampuff! We loved the time warp story with its seats taking you back to grandpa's recliner... funny and informative. Our friends has a second Cadillac sedan DeVille,91, listed for $800, Pink Champagne paint is beautiful,it needs the trunk latching motor and ignition repaired by the buyer. I'd get them both if i could. The 91 has 144,000 miles.
I'm buying a 95 DeVille soon...I'm born in 95 myself 😂
Enjoy it!
A beautiful take, thanks for the nostalgia overload!
Great video, thanks for reviewing it
My great-grandparents traded in a blue 1985 Sedan de Ville with blue leather for a 1994 de Ville, cream colored exterior with the same colored leather. When in 2008, my great-grandmother traded in the '94, she bought a diamond white CTS, her son bought the '94 back from the dealership. He still has it.
Back in 2004, I was 16. Bought a 94 Deville for 2 grand. My first and favorite car!
Cool review ! I love these old time cruisers . This Cadillac probably has the same cushy ride like my 1981 Oldsmobile Delta 88 sedan.
Yep I miss those old times
My shop has perfected a bullet proofed Northstar!! I also have a 94 DeVille 4.9 150k. Our first. 2002 DeVille BP has 250k on it. Don't be so nasty towards the Northstar if you understand the dynamics of it i promise you'll have a better attitude about them!!
Awesome to hear I'm not the only one with a Northstar over 200k I have a 1995 Concours with 206,777 and still drives like a cloud...
@@blueheart_92
Some people just have no clue! They stereo type a product and probably never turned a wrench in their pathetic life. I'm in the process of building the 1st
Northstar trike on a retired Chicago police trike frame
@@classic24hrtowingreferrals28 woa thats freakin awesome!!!
What's the tip for keeping these engines in shape? I'm looking at buying a 94 with 56k miles.
I love these old Cadillac's! Bring back the front bench seating!
Dolby Noise Reduction is usually to reduce or eliminate tape hiss and noise for a cassette
Got a 95 deville with the 4.9, I'm rebuilding the engine now but for me totally worth it I love this car
Hey I noticed that this 94 Deville, has a different grill than the others it’s vertical instead of horizontal. Was this a different trim level? Is an aftermarket?
Its called Twilight Sentinel because they can stay on after the car is shut off to illuminate your path from the car to your door; calling to mind a sentinel standing watch in the dark lighting your path to safety.
How perfect to record this by an old Toys R us! That whole mall is empty!
Great job. But there's no chance to see you clicking actually all that switches, right? Cause i'm sooooo curious about the left side controllers like display on/off etc. Forgive me, please consider i'm european and i've never seen a landboat like this. American Cars like this are totally Amazing to me, Is that kind of Cars i Dream to drive if i would come to your country.
I used to work at the Sears Auto Center in the mall in the background....also just a memory now just like that old Toy R' Us 😢
Great pick to review, you are right Cadillac is far from what its use to be, is it a wanna be German manufacturer now. I work for Caddy for about 15 years as a technician, over the years I watched as they lost a lot of loyal customers when they discontinued the DTS (Deville ) 2011. Getting back to that era of the 4.9 L V8 if you bump up the timing 2 degrees it will take off like a rocket especially if it is a touring edition model Deville, Eldorado, Seville with the 3.33 Gear ratio. They're so many tweaks you can do with the Caddies of that era. DNR stands for dynamic noise reduction. Great riding car it just floats as you're cruising down the highway. 👍
Yo my mom's neighbor still has that car in great condition
Thank you for the nice presentation, but I like to point out one thing, Zack that in a few times you have raised your voice bit too high and I had to immediately put down the volume, but nonetheless it has been a nice presentation, thank you !
That STS was really overlooked
Idk if you'll see this. I'm 18 and I bought one of these cars. That ending monologue gets me genuinely emotional. I love my car. 157k miles on that 4.9 going strong
Watching your videos, next to Doug Demuro. Great content. For your age, it's obvious you know your sh*t and doing wonderful. Finding well made auto reviews on TH-cam is t as easy as one might think.
Kudos to you.
I'm on the edge of pulling the trigger for either a (non-Northstar) DeVille, Fleetwood or a Town Car.
They come in variety of conditions, miles etc. They are different cars with similar qualities in certain areas.
In terms of the level of road noise, wind noise in cabin and elimination of bumps on the roads, which one would you pick if that was the only thing that mattered?
Fleetwood! I have a 94 fleetwood review as well if you’d like to check that out!
@@ShootingCars I have seen it and loved it. I was going to test drive one yesterday, sadly it was sold while I was in Minnesota for Thanksgiving holiday!
Maybe I can find another one. Thank you! Keep up the good work!
@@ShootingCars watched the 94 FWD review. Hard to come by. I live in a Chicago suburb, found one at $5500 at 50Kmiles, no rust.. But needs a fresh paint job.
Will test drive a 95 DeVille (4.9, not Northstar)on Saturday. (From wheel drive might be a little better :) where I live. But also found a 2000 Town Car (yes, rear wheel drive, I know)at 66Kmiles at $5K
Decisions, decisions!
95 DeVille is at 124K miles. No rust. $3000
2000 Town Car 66Kmiles $5000
Both clean. Honestly, town car has a much more appealing interior, half the miles but rear wheel drive. I guess I can drive the Subaru when it's really bad out :)
Does anyone know anything about the town car steering getting stiff? Specially before 70K miles?
If i end up picking one or the other, i will let you know here.
Have you done or thought of doing a review on Toyota Avalons?
Like a Big American vs Big Japanese side by side?
wish GM still used the twilight sentinel name for the headlight control, sounds so futuristic
My first car was 87 deville then got 94 deville love it was a tank in snow
beautiful video
What do you think of a 2000 Cadillac Seville SLS
Yes they were better times. I would love to own one those today even with the price of gas
Man I remember that foam pit place, it was in Westmont
What you want for this Cadillac? I have a 98 with the north star it’s nothing but a problem.
What a masterpiece this video is
Seville-small
Deville-da big one
Fleetwood-fucking huge
Great rewiew
Love the Final Thought thanksgiving nostalgia story, I'm sure the Lions were playing and won the game
My dad had 3 of these growing up they all had the NorthStar V8 and blew heads my mom drove a 93 Honda Accord Ex 5Spd and out lasted all of those😭 also I see his trunk motor went out too lol
That’s some thing I’m gonna address when it’s not 10° outside
How does the antinna work
Very enjoyable.
I really thought it was front wheel drive with the engine turned like that b4 U mentioned it was 4wd that's a weird setup tho being a boat of a car but keep up the content bro 👍
The fact that you still have the gold on the hood ortanment after 30 years 😂
Cadillac family as well. The N* in our fleet has 140k on it. no issues at all. Not sure why.
Dude you would be a great teacher
Love 90s caddies
Don’t drink and drive, but if you do, better call Saul!
Do you still have this?
I want to review it next!!! 😃
This weekend God willing
Popular mafia car back in the 90s
Looking for one to buy !!
Close my top wasnt factory was blue half shell top..clean ass car tho
How u love 💕 the 1994 PIMP that my BABY 😍😍😍
The Northstar got good on 2994. After that bulletproof
Yo are you in Merrillville?
Out of curiosity, does it reach 15Mgp in the city? congratulations on the great car
Yes 19-20
I had the 92 Eldorado and 97 SLS
My grandpa had this car he doesn’t have it anymore tho
My 97 sls North star blew up at 60 thousand
THATS MY CAR
Or swap out a northstar for a ls4 06 impala ss motor. The front wheel 5.3
No replacement for displacement!
(cries in a 1.6 and 2.0 liter)
As I put out 280 FWhp in a tuned 2018 Ford Fusion Platinum lol
@@MandusahRamirez yea my accord apparently puts out 250 but i still love the V8 rubble ❤️
My previous car was a 1.5
Just my thought s means standard d means deluxe
Thats weird, I just bought one and it gets up... i spun the wheels at a stop sign
Yeah she’s got some get up and go for sure. Unfortunately the fuel pump went out so it’s not going anywhere at the moment
@@dave11686 oh mine just dies sometimes, its needs a new cam sensor.
@@dave11686 you know that you can put a access door for the fuel pump right?
DNR isn't Dolby. It's Dynamic Noise Reduction which was a knock off of Dolby, licensed and developed by National Semiconductor.
200 hp was powerful in 1994. The 1994 Mustang GT had 215 hp.
You have no idea what you’re talking about regarding the Northstar engine.
a slo mo v8.. Premium gas? Why?
Replace real vale cover gastet replacement
The Deville looks much better than the Fleetwood. If only the D had the FW drive train.
I haven't blown a head gasket yet on my 03 deville dts had it for 4 years so can't talk shit about Northstar if you don't know what you talking about
It glides
Very dope video and review I own the same year Deville and 4.9 a 94 also. It was my first car at 18 years of age I’m 33 and I was lucky to find another one with 73k original miles now at 115k here’s my Instagram @Christine94_lac
4.9 V8, right before the North Star came and ruined everything.
I personally would much rather have a Northstar over a 4.9. Much better performance and sounds great.
19 gallons
That’s not a coupe! Wonder why they call it that.
they don't. sedan deville
I'd rwd swap that thing
How?! 😃🤣🙃😂
@@RC51Legend ls4
@@mikehall737 where would you put the transmission, driveshaft, and differential?
@@RC51Legend you do know the ls4 is front wheel drive right?
@@mikehall737 you said you'd RWD swap...
My 1988 Lincoln town car is 100x better
8:08 _ "DNR" Dinner! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's a sweet Cadillac, a fellow at my workplace drives one like it. I respect these old Cadillacs.
Thanks
I have one and it’s a beast
