Chevrolet Caprice 1991 Promo

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มี.ค. 2013
- Chevy Promo VHS video with Bob Sterling. Also it won Motor Trends Domestic Car of the Year for 1991.
Synopsis on the back cover:
With the economics of 1991 it has become more important than ever to shop for value.
Nowhere is this more apparent than when it comes to replacing your current luxury car.
The car you are driving now probably has a few miles on it and the price of a direct replacement is way more than you paid originally or want to pay now.
That is why we made this video, to show you the 1991 Chevrolet Caprice and how it can keep you driving in the comfort and style that you are used to, at a price that you can afford. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

I miss the 90s
Me too! I was a kid in the 90's!!!
How old you
@@Tbolt1000TForLife how old you back then? I born 90
@@user-bv9cg2mf5r I was born in 1991. So I was 6 in 1997. I remember the years 1994 through 1999. I have a very good memory and lots of fond memories of my childhood!
It was the last good decade.
Although big cars aren't for *everyone,* I've come to believe that big cars like the Chevrolet Caprice was a car for anyone wanting something made in North America, preferably the USA, that's built for Americans, for *American* needs and wants. That's why I miss the big rear-wheel drive Caprice and Caprice Classic. I remember when this style Caprice was introduced. I liked it immediately. It was still old-school in its drivetrain layout, but its styling was up to date. A long overdue styling change. Even 25 yrs later, it still looks attractive, still looks contemporary. 🙂
well.. f-150, Ram, Tahoe - are the same thing, just way more practical.
Classic. American automakers need to go back to creating dependable vehicles like these. Not the trash that we make now like the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Cruze.
William Stonehocker both are crap
@@m7machines738 LOL made me laugh
This is why I stick to trucks
Nothing is built to last. They don't want you to own anything
I wish cars still looked like this
why? want one - buy one. There are plenty of these with less than 60k miles for less than 8k USD
@@RivieraByBuick I'm in Canada and don't really see them. I also prefer to have airbags in the vehicle.
@@jorbjorb1 they do have airbag.
@@RivieraByBuickI own one. You can’t find these anymore bro, they’re either crusted rusted or dusted unfortunately took me 1.5 years just to find body parts to fix mine
@@carterclaire8862 just open the internet bro. People buy and sell 1950s Mercedes SL in great condition and here u came to tell me its hard to buy a great low miles Bubble Caprice? Even in Europe right now there are some sub 100k km Caprices for sale.
We had a 1992 Caprice LTZ with the 5.7 liter engine. I learned to drive on that car. We sold it after my dad died. So many memories 💔
Yeah its nostalgic
ANY LTZ would be a rare find today!
I, like most people, detested those wheel spats at the rear but I now appreciate them!
This car brought a lot of modern touches to an old school type of car car. A real pity Chevrolet didn't at least build them into the 2000s.
That's what I thought. It's the most modern looking 1970s car... Love those wheel arches
I am 9 years old and this is my dream car I love the caprice car and the wagon and it's 2014 and I want a 1991 caprice cool lol
the same when I was 14 yo :D
Look around... U can probably find one pretty cheap. I always wanted one since I was 14 and I finally bought one this year :) . TBH way better car than I thought!
The U.S police force had these cars during the 90`s with a powerful 5,7 litre V8 corvette engine (9C1) then they were replaced with the Ford crown victoria 4,6 litre V8 (P71) Many policemen were sad during the exchange,cause the Caprice was one hell of a car.
If GM had just "face lifted" the B-Body caprice like ford did to the Crown Vic, It would have competed well with the Crown Vic. I don't know why GM had to stop making such a great car, they are just as contemporary as a late 00's Crown Vic in my opinion.
Harry Super
GM shot themselves in the foot. I suppose you could say they were way ahead of their time. They canceled the Caprice and other B body cars because they thought the public wanted Tahoes instead - so that's what they did - the converted the Arlington plant where the Caprice was made into a Tahoe/Yukon plant and killed the Caprice. They thought the departments who bought the Caprice would buy Tahoes - that's now happening but only because Ford killed the 'Vic.
The 'Vic is a good car too, not bad in the power department if you get one that's 2004 or newer. My '88 9C1 and my '05 P71 are closely matched power wise. I know the 'Tri-9' Caprice would smash either one.
silicon212 I totally agree! The Vic is a great car, sorry what I said earlier. The Caprice though is such a great car! I have a Roadmaster Estate, and ironically my family has an 01 and an 02 Tahoe. But had GM continued the B-Body, i bet it would have beat the crownvic in terms of sails. And My folks would still have their Tahoe's because they originally were made in Michigan.
Harrison S Yes, the only time Ford was able to outsell the Caprice to LE was when the Caprice was dropped. When available, the Caprice outsold the Vic by good margins. If the Caprice had continued production, that outlook would not have changed.
The Caprice was a pile of junk, that's why police forces stopped buying them. My local PD got rid of their Caprices years before they had planned to because it was cheaper to buy Crown Vics than it was to keep repairing the Caprices.
My nephew likes this promo video! It made him want a '91 Caprice!
Хороший вкус у вашего племянника. Привет из Росии🇷🇺. У нас в РФ своего автопрома вообще практически нет.
My '93 has the "round" back wheel openings (completely changed the whole look of the car). Mine has 343,xxx miles and burns no oil with the original engine which has never been rebuilt. The most extensive repairs have been a new timing chain and new intake manifold gaskets. Amazing car.
No car promotions today will call you fat, but Chevy wasn't afraid to point it out in 1991. Good for them!
I love these cars, however I love how this is marketed to grandparents.
This is a beautiful classic car commercial and it's so relaxing 😊.
I found my 95 chevy caprice 9c1 in 2020 neglected state and the guy selling it wanted $1200 but talked him down to $650. Now its in good hands and also a project car today.
What a fantastic cars it's better than the 2000's model cars the cars of these days it has very bad and uncomfortable design
3:48 look at that soft suspension, the car bounces just from that..
that's something you don't see here in europe unfortunately, that and a couch for front seats, awesome stuff!
You guys ruined our car designs
great car made in USA.. when USA was a great country :-(
zahrem0b Same for Italy
One of the best cars ever made!
I SO LOVE THE 1986-1996 CAPRICE CLASSICS I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A KID AROUND 6-7 YEARS OLD MY UNCLE HAD A 87-90 BROUGHAM FULL TOP IT WAS MEDIUM GREY DARK GREY WITH GREY CLOTH PLUSH SEATS I USED TO SIT IN THE BACK ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND MY MOM SAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WE USE TO GO TO THE LOCAL SUPER 1 FOOD STORE IT WAS ALL ORIGINAL MANN TILL THIS DAY I STILL REMINISCE ABOUT THE BOX CAPRICES I USE TO SEE AS A KID I HAVE OWNED 4 SO FAR TWO BOX STYLES AND 2 BUBBLE STYLE
This car is so beautiful..
One day I'l have it in my garage, along with a 1990 Camaro Iroc-Z and a 1985 Ford Bronco.
its a nice car. i love it. i have a white on and its 30 years old now and runs great.
I remember when my father bought his in 1994. It was the LS with the 5.7. We thought it was a huge deal.....the sticker was $24K! He's like, OMG, what did I do! He kept it until he passed away in 2015. It gave him 21 years of good service.
My Family had one of these! It just kept going and going and going! One hell of a car!
Pathos, drink-spilling grand-children, confusion about new technology, soothing elevator music... they did a really good job aiming this commercial at the retired American!
I can totally imagine a retired Hank Hill driving this car :D
Toarcade I am sorry that your ego is so fragile. But you are still incorrect. Pathos refers to "an emotion of sympathy." For example your poignantly discursive drivel has aroused in my heart a certain degree of pathos for you. I realize your limitations and understand that autism is a cruel master.
Toarcade Will you argue with the dictionary, idiot? www.thefreedictionary.com/pathos
+Toarcade Hello, Idiot. Try deleting my new post, moron.
@ Remembering 1992
Nobody likes a pedantic twat.
'Retired Americans'?....tell that to the thousands of officers, where the Caprice Classic populated police fleets across the country.
The reason they no longer make the large cars people want to buy is because the government stupidly allowed only SUVs to burn a decent amount of gas. So goodbye large cars.
the old good days
I can honestly say, this is one of the best made, most reliable, and easy to work on cars in the world. The hardest thing to do on it is change the spark plugs...but that's more of an inconvenience than anything. My '91 LTZ will probably outlive me...
They are definitely hard to get too. I changed the thermostat and also the distributer cables on my '93 Roadmaster wagon. And changing those took a few hours. The ends of the cables where the plugs go are hard to reach.
my cousins still drive my grandmas caprice around. that's saying something
They are great, I just did the spark plugs on mine. I also have a new gearbox, power steering pump, somewhat new shocks, and a new alternator. All I need now is a good alignment then ill be ready to go.
"They are definitely hard to get too."
That's because they all went to the junkyard after a very short period of time.
It 2015 & my 91 can still roll with the best cars out here today I lov my white ghost
I had a 1995 Caprice Taxi when I lived in New York in 1998.
Specially the SS model it's still the best I ever drive
Kevin Lofur someone stole it huh???
Hell no.
Kevin Lofur i was just messing around man lol
Chevrolet needs to start making cars that are distinctive American again, not to try to compete with European or Japanese cars. Full size, body on frame rwd and V8! Bring back the good real cars that lasts and are roomy and comfortable! I Daily my 91 Caprice in Finland and I love it in every way!
Great review ! I still preferred the old Box Chevrolets which I grew up with and own today ( 2023 ) . The 1993 Caprice styling was more appealing than the 91/92 Caprice and the performance would dance circles around the Box Chevrolets .
I STILL remember the first time I ever sat in one!!!! It was at Tom Chevrolet on Route 1 (The Automile) in Norwood, MA on Saturday, March 24, 1990 (also the day that the last episode of ALF aired). That was also my first look at the then-new S-10 Blazer 4-door.
Quite informative!
I miss cars like this.
A real american sedan with a big v8 engine and comfy seats that feel like a couch. Notice the sideskirts that mimmick 50s car styling. Now we have egg shaped cardboard boxes..
This is more egg shaped than most cars today.
Fried egg.
Now a Buick is a Korean little puddle jumper or a bigger Chinese made thing that GM wants it’s owners to think they are driving an American built car , like their old riviera
I had a 91 Caprice Classic station wagon I towed my boat and I went all over the place I miss it I should have never got rid of it
I have an 86 but i really like the bubble body, especially the 91-92's i know im in the minority
Just the way the scenery looked and how the caprices were in pristine shape on this video and the music makes me go in a daze just thinking back when I was 8 yrs old sitting in the back seat of my aunts husband 87-90 box caprice brougham two tone light grey and black color he use to take me and my mom to the super market I remember sitting on those grey suede plush seats I'll never forget that
5:40 even when new they knew old people would own these cars
MentalMarshmellow 33 granny always knew best
nice white walls and fender skirts, in 1991! I think it was a better car than the Crown Victoria.
hey harryrez, you're not the only one, I like the 91-92 style better compared to the 93-96 style too, the wheel skirt adds more class to the bubble style I think, I wish they put the skirts on the 77-90 models like they did with the Pontiac Bonnevilles cause I've got a 89 Caprice and I think it would look better with it.
my grandfather owned a CAPRICE, 1991. man, it was b e autifull. and DAMN, it would fly.
Really? WOW!! Email the networks so they can report this story on the nightly news.
Remembering 1992 lmao
Rest in peace Caprice 1966-1996.
1965-1996
When this Caprice first came out, I thought it was butt ugly. But now, I want one, especially with the 5.7 liter engine.
I bought a 96 with the LT1 350. It had every option except leather. I loved it. Smooth ride, great in winter with posi and high ground clearance. The weak link was the interior, cheap looking Tupperware dash and door panels and lots of squeaks and rattles from those cheap bits. But otherwise it was great! Kept it 4 years and its still on the road, my friend bought it and still enjoys it. The only mechanical glitch in 94-96 was that the LT1 liked eating water pumps.
They forgot to mention how easy it is to add some 26 inch wheels.
Our family bought a Classic exactly the same as the blue one featured in this video brand new. I ran it for 265k until we sold it. Let me tell you all the items that had to be replaced: Power brake booster, alternator, battery. A few pairs of brake rotors. End links, shocks. Das it. It was still running but had leaky valve seals (a common issue with high mileage). It had plenty of life - big reason was the engine saw 4000 rpm maybe 12 times in its life :) GM perfected the rear wheel drive family car with this one.
Caprice was born and grew in the USA and died in Australia by HOLDEN
Never liked the rear quarter panel covering the rear tire on the 1991 and 1992 models. They changed it in 1993. Always liked the 1995 and 1996 SS model. The small window behind the rear door was restyled in 1995 as well.
ace frehley i agree never did like that ugly rear fender back there lol
@@BornToBeFamed that's not ugly bro that's a throw back to the 60 s and 50 s vehicles that's classic styling .
I drove one for over 10 years. It was the best car i ever had.
+AQUALIND Öhlinger Gerald You have my sympathies.
Had a 92 Caprice I think these have more personality than a row over civics or n Toyota's . I'll take the caprice any day good on gas. cheap to fix every one can work on will outlast ant new car of today mine lasted to 364000 miles still runs today sold it for 300..00 had for 10 years Maybe ugly but these were bullet proof hence that's why the police agency uses them. Get 30 mpg on highway and 21 in city on a 5.0l v-8 A crappy PT Cruiser only gets a combined mileage of 21. Bring the Caprice Back I would give this car 10 stars.
The car that takes you into the twilight of your life...
We bought ours new in 1991, and I use it has my daily driver. It only has 273,000 miles on the motor, and still rides like a cloud.
Christopher Felt i doubt that
This is a dream car of mine I hope to own someday!
The SS version was a thing of beauty
Mr. Sterling sadly died in 2006.
I can see a 70 year old man rolling up to the Sizzler for the early bird dinner. All in his stylish Caprice
even though i prefer the impala, i must admit this was a great car for its time.
Honestly I never thought it was ugly
Old is gold
my grandmother has a car like this. my cousins drive it to class at college. my dad named it helga.
I love that old retiree sales pitch. Full size turd is what it is
I'll never forget when it happened. At the time I was working at a Chevy dealership as a car detailer "I owned a 84 Impala at the time." and I walked in to the owner's office of the dealership and I told him that they were making a big mistake. Yes the re-design wasn't a hit. But, that only means that they could have redesigned it.
When the 4 door Tahoe replaced these perhaps it didn't look like a bad bet but, when the great recession hit perhaps it wouldn't have been so bad for GM.
Why can't they continue to build cars like this? :(
Just got this car, 1 owner original 78,000 miles. All grey half Landau top
One of my favorite cars. What side is the gas tank in?
Behind the license plate
Yup behind the license plate so both sides :)
That's alot of trunk space for sub woofer's :)
wow this thing really is fuel efficient!
Good job
A true 90s classic.
ahead of its time
Remember when the 66 Caprice was new. They were a good looking ride ,imo.
i love capris my brother had one in 1995 gold color.
Ahh yes the 90' were definitely superior. even tho it is now the 2000's, this is still the car i want for my first car.
Still looks cool.
Damn that blue is sharp.
Beautiful car.
The Caprice used the same transmission that was carried in the Buick Roadmaster and Cadillac Brougham in this body design. I have seen that transmission go out twice. One in Caprice and one in a Roadmaster.
Im gonna get a pimped version of this whip
i want this car!
Very nice car... my dream 😍
ah yes...nothing screams desiring & refined taste more than the 1991 Caprice by Chevrolet! prepare to make your buddies over at the country club jelous...lol, the jalopy of jalopies.
Just bought a 91' Caprice Classic with the wheelspats, 250k miles. Exterior paint was sunbleached and interrior is decent. Was smoked in unfortunately.
Wish my Caprice was as brand new looking as in the VHS Promo.. :(
Oh well i'll get it close enough to brand new over time.
I'm saving money to repaint the entire body Taxi Yellow to build a replica NYC Taxi.
Entire paintjob is sanded down except bumpers so paintshop can finish up spots I couldn't get.
Man I want to import one of these over to the UK
8:34 look at that white rolls!
not just luxury....taxi luxury.
woah
taxi luxury
my grandparents would have loved this car
I'm young, im born exactly some month before this caprice and i dream owning one, this is a cool granpa car, sadly in my country fuel e very expensive and a car like that will eat my wage in a week :(
I doubt you were. These were released in 1990.
Carro muito bonito!!! Tenho 2 de polícia escala 1/18 da UT MODELS!!!
Almost every family owned one of these in Saudi Arabia back in the 90s
love car!!
7.18 that face I died 😂
7:18
I had the 1991 Motor Trend Car Of The Year edition, I had #51 out of only 100 made. The key broke off in the switch and my dad junked it, while I wasn't home. :'(
😆
Still got my 91 bubble 114k miles on motor.
I used to own a '91 Caprice Classic.
Nice car
My uncle insisted my aunt buy one brought it brand new they ended up using the house as collateral for the loan he wanted her to have a car with an airbag my aunt was ready to strangle him she said as they drove off the lot YOU REALIZED WHAT WE HAD TO DO TO GET THIS CAR AND HOW MUCH TROUBLE WERE IN
This is a great car. I think swapping this engine with a 2014 Chevy Corvette engine sounds terrific. Perhaps change the automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
***** Okay, then we can replace the original Caprice suspension with top-of-the-line car suspension to be safe than sorry.
ha
yeah no
paddle shifter button garbage
A colomn shift is the way to go
Strong wheel catchers ...🤗😍😍😍
I'm using the first kind of Internet,does anybody know if the $1000 cash back offer is still valid!?
My Mother had a 1991 Caprice 5.0L and it was not the best however the 1983 Oldsmobile 98 Regency with a 5.7L before that was a sweet ride very smooth couldn't even feel bumps and railroad tracks were smooth even very nice suspension the ride quality was night and day
The only 5.7L available in a 83 Regency was the diesel and they were junk.
You are correct about them not coming optioned with a 350 gas engine however hers did have one not sure what year but it was good on gas and very smooth.
Don't really like the skirted rear wheels but it's still a great car
I think it's a great look -- compare to the rear fenders on, say, a '57 Plymouth or Chevy -- but lemme tell you, it's a pain in the nutz to get a wheel off.
