A couple of notes. The Drive was not the first to report this. The poster of that reddit thread reached out to me directly hours before the Drive posted. :)

I’ll take this AIV, an Esperante, and a Qvale Mangusta, please.

This is all I can think of

Nah. Front-Wheel Drive doesn’t cut it. The first-gen was dynamically superior to that bustle-backed beast.

I wouldn’t necessarily say that’s a bad thing. This X-plus (GM actually re-classified it as a K-body) chassis was used for the Seville and the Pontiac Phoenix 4-doors of that era. it also was essentially the platform used for the second-gen Camaro and Firebird.

A car like this needs to be seen to be worthwhile, which means it needs to be in pristine condition, which this appears to be. You’re not dailying this, you’re driving it to C&C and the local meetups where you can talk about your grandfather’s Cadillac. 

As God as my witness, I thought drones could fly

If you weren’t alive back then, it may be hard to grasp what a thunderclap this design was at the time. Visually speaking, it was a bit like the arrival of the Taurus just a decade later. Of course, GM let the downsized B-bodies–especially the Caprice/Impala–steal the Seville’s thunder the very next year.

90's era Chrysler took all sorts of wild swings, made interesting things, did top-tier concept cars, and if they weren’t American, more people would recognize that.

Not really sure about the color. It doesn’t look bad, but it’s also a sports car color on a large luxury sedan. If it was a claret or darker, I might be enthusiastic.

For a fun car, I’d take FWD over AWD 99% of the time

55 MPH is more than a “minor inconvenience”. Have you ever driven (or been a passenger) crossing Kansas at 55 MPH? Christ it felt like I could get out and walk faster than that.

And what you fail to mention is that GM is a private business and makes it’s own money. Asking for a taxpayer handout so they can double-dip on charitable tax breaks later is ridiculous.

I like that the byline says a 12 story building collapsed nearby - even though that has nothing to do with the story. That collapse was due to poor construction not sinking.

Finally, a late-model Porsche drops in value.

These fuckers just don’t get it.  Viva le revolution.

So anybody with common sense knew no one would grab the manual v6 over the automatic in enough volume to justify the amount of sales lost. I think they purposely announced they were discontinuing the auto but in reality they never were. Just wanted to guage demand and build up scarcity just to charge $4500 for the…

If Stellantis listened to their customers why the fuck would their customers be abandoning them?  Just more corporate speak from executives that aren’t fit to run a lemonade stand.

This just looks like something I could create using Microsoft Word and a couple of Hoby Store items...

A plug and play kit will probably be available on TEMU next week
