1993 Cadillac DeVille Spring Edition

Offered for sale is my 1993 Cadillac Sedan deVille Spring Special Edition. I am the second owner and the car has accumulated only 897xx miles. Complete history including all service records always serviced at Ed Martin Cadillac in Anderson Indiana since new until June of 2010 when the original owner sold the car. The first owner stated the car was never driven in the snow and rarely in the rain. Built in Feb 1993 it was sold in May of 1993 and garage kept from day one. The car wears CLC Senior badge #774 awarded at the 2011 Grand National scoring 98 points.

Finished in code 72 Carmine metallic the car has Code 40T white factory Phaeton top with Code 78 Garnet leather interior. The Spring Edition included perforated leather inserts with solid leather bolsters on the seats. Also unique were the body color outside door handles (from the Touring sedans of the era) and the package included gold ornamentation most of which I have replaced in the past 2 years with NOS parts. The car currently wears brand new Bridgestone radials with the correct whitewalls mounted on professionally refinished original aluminum lace wheels.

The white Phaeton top is a one year only color option for the SdV. According to 2 trusted sources only 20 cars were produced in this color combination by the factory. The Phaeton top was installed off line by ASC at a facility adjacent to Orion Assembly. Cadillac then did final inspection before shipment to the dealer.

The car was ordered with option package C which included remote fuel filler door release digital instrument cluster automatic day/night driver and interior rear view mirror trumpet 4 note horns and trunk convenience net. The car was also ordered with the security package including theft deterrent and keyless entry systems. Other standard or optional equipment included 6 ways power driver and passenger seats with manual recliners power windows automatic door locks trunk lid release and pull down illuminated vanity mirrors and entry system and trunk mat. Climate control and cruise control work perfectly as does EVERY standard and optional piece of equipment. Keyless entry with both original remotes were repaired with an NOS module and function as designed. The original radio was serviced by an AC-Delco repair center including refreshing the cassette player. The original power antenna works well.

Mechanically the car is as close to perfect as possible As stated the original owner had all suggested maintenance done by the selling dealer. The front brakes were refreshed with AC-Delco parts including calipers hoses pads and rotors. The rear brakes look brand new with no corrosion even on the hardware. The anti-lock brakes systems works as designed. Brake fluid has been flushed and replaced with DOT4 fluid. The speed sensitive suspension works properly with new front struts having been installed at around 50K. The electronic suspension control has been modified per a Cadillac service bulletin to prevent false warning light activation. The electronic level control functions perfectly although the rear struts have some cosmetic corrosion around the air bladders. The speed sensitive steering also works properly. The steering pump was resealed and an NOS pressure line installed in late 2011. There are NO fluid leaks at all. I have noted mileage of 26.1 MPG on longer trips and average 20 locally using the specified premium fuel. Coolant was flushed and replaced with the proper “green” coolant and GM seal tabs fall of 2013. Transmission shifts smoothly again with no fluid leaks. There are no warning lights on or fault codes stored in the computers.

The interior is very very nice. The leather is buttery soft and shows only minor creasing on the driver seat cushion bolster. I have cleaned the leather wrapped steering wheel which has good color with a couple of tiny knicks probably from the original owner’s rings. There are NO cracks in the dash or door armrests and the headliner shows no looseness. I had the rear door stationary window closeouts for the Phaeton top recovered.. Carpeting is in good condition and the original mats are in the car. Also included is another set of front mats which I use as “driver” mats. The trunk lining is nice and includes the 93 only trunk mat. Except as noted below the paint is original. There are a number of small chips and scratches which have been touched up with GM touch-up paint. As is problematic with these cars there are spots on some of the lower body plastic cladding panels where the paint has flaked off primarily the lower front fender rears where stones have chipped the paint. The Phaeton top is extremely clean. The material used by the factory on white tops was Haartz convertible top material. In the interest of full disclosure I must admit the car was involved in an accident in September of 1993 when the car was 4 months old. The original owner said she was sideswiped by a dui driver in downtown Anderson on a sunny Sunday afternoon. I have a copy of the repair estimate and there was NO structural damage noted or repaired. Both left doors and the left outer quarter panel were replaced with new GM parts by Ed Martin Cadillac’s body shop. The work was of high quality and the paint match is very very close even after 20 years. Admittedly under certain light conditions the slight difference is apparent to the trained eye. Even the hand applied gold pinstripes were duplicated very nicely. The biggest fault was the Phaeton top panel on the left rear door was originally reinstalled slightly out of place. When that was corrected there was one mounting hole filled and touched up. The hole is not visible standing beside the car as it is obscured by the molding. It is visible when on the ground looking up.

The underbody and engine compartment are both very clean. To be 100% show condition the suspension components and rear bumper mounting should be refinished.. The chrome bumpers and stainless trim is very nice as well.

I have a large number of digital pictures of the car. The car is in storage but is available for inspection evenings after 6 PM EST or anytime weekends. I am located in Northwest Ohio 1 hour west of Toledo or 1 hour northeast of Fort Wayne Indiana just 5 miles from an exit off I80-90. I can be reached by phone during the above times at 567-239-2563. Clear title in my name asking price is $5200.00 will consider offers. Cash in person only.

Shipment will be entirely the buyer’s responsibility. Vehicle must be paid in full cash in person before shipment or pickup I will gladly cooperate with your designated shipper or make accommodation for pickup in person.
