1994 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Review - Don't Fix What Ain't Broke! 

I own a creampuff '94 Fleetwood with 44K miles, gold with beige interior. By the way, Brougham is a one-syllable word...pronounced "brome."

i love these 90s Cadillacs, There's just something Nostalgic about them. Another great Vid!

With a tow package the benefit is an auxiliary transmission cooler so the transmission will stay cooler and have better longevity overall even if you don’t tow, so it’s a plus.

Zack should have given a nice hand gesture to the Kia driver at 3:03 for driving that far over on the road, the modern day version of a Fleetwood would have to be the CT6, it's a shame GM has discontinued it after such a short period

I've figured out that a 1993 Fleetwood is the only way to get a regular TBI small block vehicle with a factory electric fan, the amount of room to work on all of the front accessories is SHOCKING even compared to this LT1 Fleetwood!

I always get a kick out of younger reviewers reviewing older cars. They are amazed a car has a feature they think only newer cars have. Cadillac had heated seats in the early 1960's, possibly late 50's. Auto headlamps mid 1950's. Memory seat 1980 or 1981. Digital dash with a trip computer 1979 Buick Riviera, for 1979 Caddy just offered the trip computer on the Seville & Eldorado (avg & instant MPG, distance and time to reach destination, etc.

I have two 1995 Fleetwood Broughams. One has 257k miles on it and literally looks and drives like it has 40k. They are remarkable vehicles and didn’t get the acclaim they deserved when new. Unfortunately, Cadillac was too busy at the time pushing the smaller front-drive stuff with the Northstar that would blow its head gasket at some random time after purchase.

Cadillac went to FWD for the 80's mostly. The majority of the 70's Caddies were RWD with the ElDorado being the exception.

Hi Zack from Sydney, Australia. I'm 67 yrs old now, and when I was 26 I bought a 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham -TALISMAN- . Firstly, Brougham is in pure english pronounced broom. The Europeans in a variety of languages spell it Brum, or Brumm, etc. As in the horse & carriage days a mans patent leather covered Brum, or Brougham was the ultimate premium 4 wheeled, 2 person carriage pulled by 2 or 4 horses , , kind of a 17th Century Rolls Royce Phantom Coupe. Secondly , twilight Sentinel, first offered on the 1953 Eldorado. twilight , as in twilight time when it gets darker outside, and sentinel, as a safeguard for something, hence twilight sentinel is your automated safeguard as the photocell light sensor detects failing light and automatically switches lights on when it darkens, or in say a tunnel. But its more than that as the sentinel is also your safeguard if you are in the dark & have a long drive to walk along, as you can set the headlights from o seconds to 5 minutes to delay shutdown & then they will shut off Cadillac made talismans for just 3 years, like the early airbags 1974, 75 & 76 only. The 1974 talisman was the only one with leather seats in the most over the top design imaginable, PLUS the car had ONLY 4 Seats , YEP in a 19 foot 10 inch monster , just FOUR ultra luxurious seats , with little "cubby holder bins " to separate the seats front & rear , these can be opened out front and rear as little writing desks which are self-illuminated as well, these cars were packed with features , the Talisman option was the price of a Chevy !!!! This was an ultimate mega premium version. It came with all the options that are in today's cars, including airbags, yep airbags, or as GM called the back then "Air Cushion Restraint System" or ACRS for short, offered for just 3 years as almost zero take up, 10,231 cars out of 19.4 million new GM cars in 3 years. Additionally, it had Trackmaster , another advanced feature combines ABS braking with traction control. Car has UV proof glass in all windows, electrically controlled air shocks etc. GM sent a car kit completely knocked down to build here in GM Holdens plant at Pagewood in Sydney. as cars HAD to be right hand drive to be registered for road use. We had full power 8.2 litre engines as we had no car epa rules until 1987, so no de-tuned gutless ones like in the USA. Also we went metric for 1974 in Australia, so its in kilometers, bought in 1982 with 102,700k's, about 60,000miles,. it now, 40 years later in my ownership has 704,000 kilometres which is approx 445,000 miles. I am a doctor so I have properly serviced the car ultra regularly as can be fully charged back against tax, so careful maintenance is almost like a rolling restoration.

I also have a Cadillac Fleetwood brougham with 152,000. I've had it for eight years I bought it with 70,000 miles I've been on numerous comfortable trips.❤❤

The Dole / Kemp bumper sticker speaks volumes!! Hahahaa!! Nice. If Bob Dole had won, we never would have had met Monica Lewinski.

7:01 my 1996 Audi A4 also has an Easter egg like that with the heater control LCD display. If you press certain buttons you could get engine temperature, engine rpm, outside temperature, rpm etc. 3:06 bro that oncoming car almost hit you

Is it just me or is brougham supposed to be pronounced “brom” not “bro-ham” it seems like the Cadillac fanboys always pronounce it “brom”

The chrome bottom panels look incredible. I dont know why Cadillac doesn't use them today

Now THIS is a luxury vehicle, not just a slightly fancier sports car with a crazy high horsepower V8, obnoxiously loud supercharger, and a stupid alphabet soup name.

253K miles, wow! Someone took care of this old Caddy 💯

One of my dream cars! So beautiful!👍🏾🔥

This was such a great high quality video! Ur doing it so well! I loved this

Thanks, I always enjoy your videos.

That security lock for the license plate/gas cap is awesome. I could have used it on my Chevelle or Camaro. Shout out to my cousin Big Frank who currently owns a 94 Fleetwood.

Awesome review, buying this exact car tomorrow 😂

Man, when I saw those GM buttons, memories just came back.

God l remember when you only had like only 5,000 subs.. you've came a long way young man. Plus my brother tried to get me to buy o one of these instead of the park Avenue I ended up buying.. now I'm into Japanese & European cars. Smh

I had a gold 96 - best car I ever owned!

That Dark Cherry paint looks amazing.

love these big body on frame broughams!

The Twilight Sentinel name started in 1964, but I believe the feature dated back to the 1950s, along with the break light indicator above the rear window and those fender mounted indicators. Those along with the fin tails were standard features of old school Cadillacs.

Wonderful review

My Daily driver is a Silver 94 Fleetwood. 3rd one I've owned! There's just something special about the 90s GM B body's

I want to let something off my chest here. I have had a realization, one that has been haunting me for some time. I think this car is beautiful, elegant and unique, and I BADLY want one.

I had a '96 Brougham. The fella that I sold it to caught me on the highway with my '92 Brougham. He called me out. He got smoked. He didn't know that its 5.7 liter Chevrolet engine had been replaced by a 540 Cadillac engine which is packing 600 horsepower. I love a sleeper.

I've got a '94 myself, and if you want to put a bit of a smile on your face, put some 3.73 gears in it and get a 93 octane performance tune. These have amazing "sleeper" potential with that LT1!

If I were around in the 90s, making good money, no matter my age I would own Cadillacs and Lincolns. I still kinda feel that way but neither of those now satisfies my yearning for a soft, comfortable atmosphere in a car. Genesis and Lexus scratch that itch.

I like how doofus at 3:05 didn't even attempt to move over.

Great review.

It's fascinating to see young people who don't know much about automotive history review cars. Cadillac has had diagnostic info through climate controls since the late 70s. Brougham was a coach builder, like Fleetwood (and LeBaron and a few others) which eventually became car models in their own right. Twilight Sentinel has been a GM feature for decades. There's so much he could learn about automotive history if he looked into those kinds of things more.

Hey-that white Deville is mine! ;)

i love that shade of purple on it

I have had 5 Cadillac Fleetwood 1994-1996 they are super great chassis’s

I appreciate these for the super-soft ride that doesn't exist anymore. That said, I don't know how the hill this car was available for as long as it was. The entire non-US segment was moving in a different direction toward performance, but the US makes insisted on making barges.

I love this guy!

I always loved these Fleetwood Broughams!!!

my 94 is this exact spect down to the interior, never knew what that lever was for in the trunk

Makes me miss my Roadmaster

My favourite Cadillac of all time

I wish my Deville had the ability to send the air wherever too

Thank u very for making wonderful review of this beautiful classic Caddy Fleetwood car so as per ur experience in driving both Caddy Fleetwood 1994 and Lincoln Town Car 1996 so which one of them have lighter soft power steering and more soft comfortable cushion seating?

The ride comfort, is unmatched in these

They are a PITA to work on!! Trying doing the opti-spark, plugs and wires..

would love one of these. but no room int he garage and pretty much any classic u throw money at it and not get much of it back lol

I love mine had it since 2017

This is the model I am selling my 01 DeVille to get. Absolutely NOTHING wrong with my Deville. It’s a cream puff, zero rust and only 53k miles. But I am scared to death that the headgasket is gonna blow every time I drive it. With a Fleetwood I will feel more confident in knowing there less chance of the motor blowing and it will cost half as much to repair it and it has maybe the best aftermarket support of any engine ever 🤷‍♂️

can i change the digital mph to kmh?

HEYYY I HAVE THIS EXACT CADILLAC AND WANT A QUOTE OF WHAT I WOULD GET FOR IT (not really looking to sell) but genuinely curious. 50k miles so basically brand new

What about fuse box n windshield fuse location

Could listen to you say BRO Hmmm all day long. HA! - save the planet drive it to the junk yard today! (joke aside great video)

My 1980 Seville reads codes in the climate control system also.

Nice :)

The brake and blinkers were fiber optic. Which means if the bulb is out you'll not see a light. Cadillac intelligence.

At 4:39, it has 253,289 miles! Over a quarter million miles, and still silly smooth, and whisper quiet. Not THAT'S quality!

A bit of research will show: some of these 'surprise' auto features were old news by this car's creation. E.g. even mid-price Mercury's high-end cars had memory seats in 1950s.

I have one of these in black

i couldn't care less for new Bentley's, mercs, Ferrari, etc this huge car is all you need presence is unmatched!

225 inches? I got 233 inches long or 18 ft 9

They are fiber optics not lights on the fenders and the brake lights on the inside of rear roof

This was the last old school Cadillac ever made, none of the Cadillacs that followed had this imposing presence, with the closest being the truck that succeeded the Fleetwood in the Arlington assembly plant, the Escalade. The Sixteen never happened and the CT8 also died before it arrived. The upcoming 300k electric handbuilt Cadillac will be something completely different.

I just bought one of these a few months ago. Surprisingly I'm not really a huge fan of it. I love 80s and 90s luxury cars, but the features in this 94 are just a bit much. I much prefer my 95 lincoln town car. It has all the features you want, no features you don't want. The caddy has a bunch of overly complicated automatic features I don't like and can't turn off, and is missing alot of the features I really like from my town car, like steering wheel buttons

LT1

And Just WHAT are Your credentials ?

"Broou-am" or less correctly "BRooum" is from 1800s (horse-drawn 4-wheel carriage, riders roofed but driver a slave to rain etc.) *The H is silent.* On cars it denotes top luxury.

You mean broke ham..& long as monday but still nice cool loking car,..

the later northstars are much better. I love mine. Smooth as silk with surpring get up and go.

About 2 years late, but it's pronounced broam. As in bro mm. The H is silent. Or maybe it is pronounced brohmm but broam is just a lot cleaner sounding

Needs whitewalls

It costs under $200 to replace the airride. Ive done it myself so id know.

I really wish these young reviewers would gain knowledge before bashing an engine in every single Cadillac video.. I’m goin too possibly help you here, the Northstar was the most technically advanced engine ever built and was WAY ahead of its time.. the ONLY issue these engines have is the head bolts pull out of the aluminum block which causes the head gaskets too fail. Did you know that every single Northstar made even current ones will ALL have this problem? Also did you know that there are companies like Northstar performance in Canada that remove, repair the block with a patented stud kit that is guaranteed for life of the car unlimited mileage!! Why would someone do that you ask? My 99 Deville concourse has studs and is tuned and cammed with spray doing o tad over 700HP and is bullet proof!!! That Northstar becomes a great engine once it’s ONLY problem is dealt with correctly!! And yes when that shop does a stud service then reseal the mid section of the block with GMs updated sealer so it will not ever leak there again. Have you ever changed a starter in the middle of winter with snow on the ground??? Sux right?!?!?!? Well that Northstar you hate so much has the starter mounted on top of the engine right under the intake that uses rubber lifetime gaskets. You don’t got too even lay down it’s super easy too do the job!!! Tons of cool stuff about those vehicles I only gave 2 reasons

The town car bags are $200 not 1,000s of dollars

Bro wants ham

Bro-ham 🤣 alotta differences between both cars those chrome panels the longer body the engine is wayyyyy better than the DeVille. Overall the Cadillac Fleetwood can outlast the DeVille. And the Fleetwood is 227 not 225

Sorry I’m a stickler but it’s actually called transatlantic accent!

Hmmmmmmm. B BODY!!

Pronounced Broam! Not bro ham

3:05 Incoming car didn’t know how to turn a little wider, making you veer right. Sad

DAMN kids not learning product, bro-HAM BWAAAAHAAAAAHAAA ,,,,,, BROME,,,,, beavis

3:05 🤷‍♂️ "Geezzz buddy, I know those Kia Sephias were super Huge and all but could ya let me have at least 30% of my side of the road here?! This things a Boat not a Weedwacker"!! 🖕

My 94 cadilac fleetwood wont shit into 4th

pronounced brome

Brougham rhymes with chrome.

“Brohm”

It's pronounced Broh-mmm. Not bro ham.

Why do you shout so much?

Terrible low-tech GM "luxury". Ford was offering a much nicer Town Car at the time.

How do you pronounce Brougham? Just ask GM: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GBI6op1PKTI.html

"brome"

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Brom….

Fleetwood > Deville 🤮

If Cadillac didn't do what they did with the art and science design and the V cars Cadillac would be dead. You really seem to know nothing about the cars you review....

A cheap Cadillac!

amazing cars but terrible engines

This is the ugliest Cadillac they have ever made. I immediately think funeral when I see one.
