1984 Coupe deVille

New front-drive versions of DeVille and Fleetwood were anticipated, but delayed because of quality control questions; so for 1984 the rear-drive coupe and sedan carried on. Bodyside moldings were now color-keyed to the body finish. Taillamp lenses held goldtone Cadillac wing crests. All models now had electronic level control. The standard fuel-injected 249 cu. in. (4.1-liter) V-8 engine fed into a revised exhaust system with monolithic catalytic converter.

Electronic controls were modified to meet stricter emissions standards in high-altitude regions. The diesel V-8 remained on the option list, except in California because of its emissions Model regulations. Standard equipment included

  • power brakes and steering,
  • whitewall steel-belted radials,
  • electronic level control,
  • automatic climate-control air conditioning,
  • signal-seeking stereo radio with power antenna,
  • cornering lights,
  • light monitors
  • power windows
  • six-way power seat,
  • tinted glass,
  • a remote-control left outside mirror,
  • right visor mirror,
  • automatic parking brake release,
  • P215/75R15 tires
  • a stowaway spare.

The front-wheel drive editions appeared during the '84 model year as early 1985s.
