    Owner Comments:
    1978 Cadillac Seville Opera Coupe color "Cedar Firemist" with "Dark Cedar" leather interior. The car has 83,400 miles. It is powered by a GM 350 V-8 WITH LESS THAN 3,000 MILES ON ENGINE, with an automatic transmission. The current owner is the original owner's nephew. He keeps the vehicle garaged in San Diego, Originally purchased in Palm Springs, Ca for $50,000. Used most part of it's life in Palos Verdes, Ca. The car has clean California title. This Cadillac was completed by the Grandeur Motor Car Corporation on 1978 in Pompano Florida. Only 250 made. Grandeur Motors was officially sanctioned by Cadillac to alter the vehicles. What they would do, is cut 36 inches out of the rear section of the vehicle (the back seat) and add 36 inches in front of the hood. This saved them from having to alter the actual frame of the car. Options include A/C, power locks, windows and mirrors, power seats, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, and others. The car is in great shape. The engine runs very strong and the transmission shifts smooth. Everything inside and out works. The interior is nice. The car has seen no abuse and was cared for and well maintained since it was new. If you are seriously interested, come and check the vehicle out for yourself.
