1985 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, V-8 4d Sed
FLEETWOOD BROUGHAM — SERIES 6D — V-8 —Brougham, the last surviving rear-drive Cadillac, changed little for 1985 and faced potential extinction in spite of increased sales. That didn't happen. The traditional rear-drive lingered on for several more years, even though all other Cadillacs (including limos) switched to front-drive and shrunken size. Vast inside and out, Broughams continued to attract traditional luxury-car buyers. The Brougham coupe was dropped from the lineup in mid-year. Sedans came with a standard full vinyl roof, while the Brougham coupe included a standard Cabriolet vinyl top with unique rear quarter window. Standard engine was the 4.1 -liter V-8; diesel V-8 optional at no charge.
