A seventh-generation Cadillac Coupe DeVille – the epitome of the American land yacht. Extensively restored and meticulously maintained, featuring freshly reupholstered leather interior and overhauled V8 engine with LPG conversion. A rare opportunity: nearly all comfort features are functional, and a recent appraisal report is included.
In the late 1970s, the Cadillac DeVille was considered the ultimate benchmark for size, luxury, and presence on American roads. The seventh generation, introduced for 1977, marked a turning point: for the first time, Cadillac “downsized” its flagship in response to the oil crisis and changing market demands. Yet even in this new, more compact format, the Coupe DeVille remained a commanding presence – more of a rolling living room than a conventional car, with iconic design, opulent equipment, and legendary ride comfort. Period sources spoke of a “living room on wheels,” and in truth, few other cars could match the DeVille’s effortless composure and grandeur. Under the hood: a large-displacement V8, engineered for endless highways and a supremely confident appearance.
Exterior:
This Coupe DeVille impresses with its bold lines, expansive flanks, and signature front end. The paint finish is deep and consistent, and the panel fit and chrome trim reflect the care invested in its preservation. All moldings, wheel covers, and badges are original and complete.
Interior:
The interior has been recently and completely reupholstered in supple, period-correct leather, inviting relaxed long-distance cruising. The seats, dashboard, and all panels present themselves in virtually flawless condition. A highlight: nearly all comfort features, including electric windows, air conditioning, and cruise control, are reported to work perfectly – a rare combination for US classics of this age.
Technical:
In 2012, the V8 engine underwent a comprehensive overhaul (cost: approximately €9,000), including hardened valve seats for LPG operation. The chassis was updated with new front and rear shock absorbers, new control arm bushings, and new stabilizer bar bushings. Recent maintenance includes fresh oil and filters. According to the appraisal, the vehicle’s technology is in good working order and suitable for regular driving.
History:
According to the owner, this Cadillac has enjoyed long-term, enthusiastic ownership. An extensive folder of invoices and documentation of all work accompanies the car, including a recent invoice from 2025 for €3,000 covering significant chassis work. The latest appraisal values the car at €27,500.
Service / Documents:
The sale includes a complete documentation folder with service and maintenance invoices, the latest appraisal, proof of the engine overhaul, and LPG conversion. Further technical reports or mileage documentation can be reviewed upon request.
This 1977 Cadillac Coupe DeVille embodies the best of American automotive culture: distinctive design, powerful V8 engineering, and an interior that feels like a luxury living room. The careful restoration, comprehensive technical overhaul, and thorough documentation make this example especially appealing for enthusiasts of authentic US classics. A vehicle that still combines relaxed long-distance cruising with a truly commanding presence.
Some cars truly define an era – the 1977 Cadillac DeVille is undoubtedly one of them. I remember how these “land yachts” dominated films and American roads alike. What impresses me most about this example is the combination of authentic patina, modern leather comfort, and technical diligence. Once you experience cruising in a Cadillac like this, you understand why it became the symbol of boundless comfort and effortless luxury.
