Finished in Medium Slate Metallic with lighter-colored bumper surrounds and lower body edges matching the full-length gray vinyl top, this 1990 Cadillac Fleetwood shows just under 50,000 miles on the odometer. A fuel-injected 4.5L V-8 engine drives the front wheels via an automatic transmission with overdrive.
Rolling on factory-stylized aluminum wheels with whitewall tires, the Fleetwood boasts a gray leather interior with air conditioning, supple button-tufted seating surfaces, an 8-way power adjustable driver’s seat, air conditioning, an AM/FM/Cass stereo system with a graphic equalizer, power windows, power locks, power dual sideview mirrors, power steering, power brakes, cruise control, a tilt steering column with an airbag-equipped steering wheel perched at the top, a digital information system and much more. For 1985, Cadillac would introduce an entirely new Fleetwood and Deville lineup based on a front-wheel drive platform.
Considerably smaller than ever before, the call of the day was indeed efficiency; as such, Cadillac focused on build quality, interior noise levels and overall drivability. While many balked at the newly-shrunken Cadillac, those who drove them frequently enjoyed them immensely, the smaller size proving easier to handle in most all situations, especially parking in tight spaces. Despite the outwardly diminutive look of the Cadillac, the interiors were exceptionally accommodating.
For the 1989 model year, the Fleetwood body would grow and return to a lengthier disposition complete with rear fender skirts, and, in 1990, the 4.5L would find 180 HP thanks to a modified intake manifold, allowing the car not just more power, but a more linear delivery. By 1993, the Fleetwood name would reappear on a large rear-wheel drive vehicle, largely returning the name to a more classically-proportioned platform.
