92 Caddy

Post by bill25 »

Apparently these have no resale value.

This is going for less than an 80s Monte Carlo SS if you look at the condition. Kind of weird. I guess a Monte Carlo can still be made fast, this being "luxurious" by today's standards has long passed.

This is still likely the best you will ever find:

350, and the gold package.

Other than the grill, this is awesome. Making one of these into a sleeper would be something else I would enjoy. But frankly I'd enjoy it stock.

I dunno about no resale. Rather, I'd say this one is a great buy.

I agree about the grill. I do like these cars. To me, this is a cruiser and doesn't really need to be fast, but that never hurts. This is in amazing condition.

This is a real candidate for a 5.3 turbo swap with the quietest mufflers you can find that flow the necessary amount of exhaust. And an automatic trans. You can even beef up the suspension with 9C1 parts so it's not completely unsafe at speed but maintain the stock look.

You could eat off the engine on this one. Only 28k.

I think I like the interior better on these (than the 93-96). More old school. The bottom hinged throttle pedal is also cool. Telescoping wheel!

The radio head unit is the same from like 90 to 95. Then the 96 got a new corporate head unit. Same gauge cluster from 90-96 also. Actually, I think it started before 90.

I'd love one with the Astroroof (or an ASC aftermarket unit) but you usually pay more for such examples.

In response to Kevin and the turbo 5.3 comment:

It isn't a 1992 Cadillac Brougham (or a 5.3) but I think you guys might still like it...
