orFor Sale: 1988 Cadillac Brougham in Cleveland, Ohio for sale in Cleveland, OH
Vehicle Description 32,296 original miles.
Fantastic color combination.
Beautifully preserved, everything works.
Recent extensive service including new tires.
Runs and drives properly.
A fantastic icon from the era of American land yachts!Cadillac called this particular shade of dark metallic blue 'Black Sapphire Metallic,' and it works extremely well on the big Cadillac's angular bodywork.
Don't be fooled, it's blue, not black, and given the striking color combination with the red leather interior, it was surely custom ordered by the original owner.
That owner also selected virtually every option on the sheet except a power moonroof, leaving us with one of the finest '80s Cadillacs we've ever seen.
It wears 95% original paint, with the only areas being some touch-up behind the front wheels that was professionally done a few years ago.
Otherwise it is untouched, including the bumper fillers, which are still in excellent shape with no cracks or other signs of failure.
The matching blue padded roof is in great condition, too, giving the Cadillac and even more formal look.
All the bright chrome shines up nicely, and the bright red pinstripe along the flanks adds the perfect finishing touch.
If you like the big Cadillacs of yore, this is an excellent choice.
The red leather interior is likewise beautifully preserved with no stains, rips, tears or other maladies.
Even the headliner is firmly affixed to the roof, a common issue with GM cars of this era.
The long list of options includes power seats, windows, locks, and mirrors, automatic climate control (blows ice cold!), tilt steering column, cruise control, rear defogger, Twilight Sentinel, and much more.
The original AM/FM/cassette stereo has been replaced with a RetroSound radio with Bluetooth, and it looks almost factory-installed?nice! However, as a result of the radio switch, the power antenna no longer works automatically and has to be extended manually.
You'll note that the headlight and taillight monitors work, that the dash pad and faux wood on the various surfaces is still brilliantly glossy, and the car has never been smoked in and the ash trays are like new.
The massive trunk is still outfitted with its original mats, space-saver spare with cover, and a complete jack assembly.
Power comes from an Oldsmobile-derived 307 cubic inch V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor, which is impeccably smooth and bulletproof reliable.
Performance is, of course, modest, but once it's up to speed, this car will easily cruise at speeds that will get you a night in jail in all 50 states.
Obviously the engine has been well maintained and the engine bay is quite clean with no modifications or other questionable workmanship.
It starts easily, idles smoothly, and generally works the way you'd expect a top-of-the-line luxury car to work.
The A/C has been upgraded to R134a refrigerant, so it will be easy to service in the future, and recent service work includes belts, hoses, and all the fluids.
Underneath there's a 4-speed automatic transmission with a tall overdrive and thanks to 2.
73 gears out back, it even pulls down decent fuel economy for a massive luxury car.
The floors are unmarked and a light dusting of undercoating provides some protection.
The exhaust system is hushed, as it should be, and the ride is pillowy smooth.
This is an American luxury car in the most traditional sense of the word.
Factory 15-inch wheels carry chrome wire wheelcovers and 225/75/15 whitewall radial that were installed in 2021.
Documentation includes the factory owner's manual and booklets, as well as a stack of maintenance receipts.
For fans of traditional body-on-frame construction, effortless cruising, and isolated interiors, nothing can beat the Cadillac Brougham.
This one offers low mileage, exceptional maintenance, and a fantastic color combination, which all help make it a very special car.
If you've been looking for something that drives right and still has a lot of presence, this Brougham deserves a closer look.
