1999 Cadillac Fleetwood Limited POV Drive

- Hello everyone and welcome back for a POV video! The 1999 Cadillac Fleetwood Limited is an extremely special vehicle. With a production run lasting just two years, only 781 of these luxurious vehicles were made. I will first give you a tour of this luxo-barge. Then I'll go on a drive on the highway, out in the country, and in the city. Finally, I will finish it all off by performing an acceleration test. There is no commentary in this video which emphasizes the experience and sounds of the car. Enjoy!

(What an odd promo item to include with a car purchase) Nice vid!
Your car reviews are amazing! I really appreciate how much time and effort you put into showing the details of all these old cars. I especially like your red eldorado and fleetwood series 75 reviews.
I don't know how you chose and obtain the cars you review, but if you're willing to take requests, I think you would really enjoy the Lincoln Continental Mark V. It's another big, blocky, road-hugging car, and it's especially good in the Bill Blass edition that has a stylish design all over. I would love to hear what you have to say about it.
Love the burble of the NORTHSTAR exhaust!
Thank you James! I had known about this video for few days and kept it for the right moment. So after a loong walk in cold autumn day, I had a glass of bourbon on a couch and enjoyed my ride in this cool Cadillac. (Which I will never own as I am affraid of the Northstar engine., but I would take it for a ride anytime.) Thank you again, I am already looking for another one! Cheers from Prague!
Great POV of the very first RUclips car review! Well done!
This guy makes awesome vids and reviews! He let's the car speak for itself. Can't get any better than that. So I subbed.
Beautiful car. Thanks for the video.
I really like your videos and likecto see you drive the the old opulent cadillacs from the 60s & 70s its fascinating the technology how they have have advanced over the years keep driving these lovely beautiful cars.
Cheers
Sam
Excellent video as always 🫶
We had a white/red one back in 99, I was in highschool.
This is one gorgeous vehicle!
This Cadillac is big and beautiful. It has all the creature a limo would have. I understand no audio so we can hear how the car sounds on the road. Very Quite. Acceleration is quick. The only problem with the car was the engine they used. I only wish they used a different engine. Thumbs up on the video. I enjoyed the ride of this big Fleetwood Limited.
I'm really glad you like this car, Robert! The car isn't perfect, but I certainly do love how it rides and drives. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful car, I own one myself! The biggest issue I have with that car is that it DESPERATELY needs white wall tires. It just looks lost without them lol
People just to get it!!?! White wall tires for big barge cars! Lol. Thank you!
She gets up and goes!
Really clean
I had an 89' Fleetwood I bought new. Saw one at the Los Angeles auto show on Friday and I was at the dealer Saturday morning to buy it. What an amazing vehicle. Lost it in a divorce. What a loss. The car, not the wife.
Love This car
Nice car!❤
Fantastic car!! all the luxury, longer wheelbase ...wellI 'm a little jealous...I own the lessen 1994 sedan de ville 4.9l (non northstar).
James, Nice old Girl Fleetwood, looks well cared for only the dreaded early NorthStar. Get the steering wheel centered, makes me crazy when I see this😵💫. I enjoy your presentations better with narration and music. Thanks..
The 1993-1996 Cadillac Fleetwood has a LT1 5.7L V8 rear wheel drive engine that is much better than the 1999 Cadillac and has the same performance
I had no problem following your feature demonstration of this big Caddy. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe none of the glass, including the windscreen had a factory tint. The windscreen appeared to have a tint strip at the top. I noticed the Michelin’s on the four corners 😊. 👍 on the vid James!
Thank you, Lon! That's correct, none of the windows had a dark factory tint. I think it would have been nice for the rear windows to have factory tint so it would be more of a private experience in the back. I'm glad you liked the video!!
@@lonwaslien104 it does have a slight tint.
Surprised not to see tailpipe smoke telling on those notorious head bolts.
Such a good driver. I'll bet you aced your driver's test the very 1st time you took it?.
I think I have only seen maybe two of these in person so far.... possibly three
all were in south florida
Road trip ready.... After an alignment of course.
Yes please I'll take it
Que coisas linda
Get the steering wheel centered at the next alignment! That would drive me nuts
My last alignment service the retards didn't center it. I was pissed and they charged me 60 dollars for it the jackoffs
I think they used the Fleetwood model name for a Sedan Deville. It doesn't look like the 90s Fleetwood. It looks like a stretch Deville.
It is a '99 DeVille that has been stretched 6" in the backseat and 6" in the trunk. Work was done by Accubuilt in Lima, OH. When the 2000 model came out, Accubuilt stretched those 6" in the backseat. Purpose was to compete with Lincoln Towncar L with was a 6" stretch done at the Lincoln factory.
Concours package is better, but this one is still nice
Race car sounds from that Northstar 👀
BEAUTIFUL car a real Cadillac just needs a alignment
I hate it when folks do reviews without talking. You don't have to be a Doug, "with all the quirks and features", but a little description would help.😅
Deathstar engine. My neighbor had one and they were about 150 miles away from home and it blew a head gasket. Nice exterior styling and okay interior.
The 1998 and 1999 Northstars were considered to be the worst which is a shame because those are the only two years they made Fleetwood Limited's lol. But in my case, this engine has been a dream. No out of the ordinary issues, it runs beautifully, and gets great gas mileage for the vehicle. Thank you for the comment, Tim!
@@JW_Reviews CarWizard on RUclips did a video on replacing the NS head bolts. He said it was one of the best engines if you did that. On occassion I see a posting on the Cadillac Forum website about replacing the head bolts. A better engine than the HT4100 I have in 3 of my Cadillacs.
Fortunately, the 1993-1996 Cadillac Fleetwood, which came with the LT1 engine and the RWD system, has equal performance to the 1998-1999 Fleetwood.
restud it and they're amazing
Needs a LT1
Does the interior have lots of hard plastic? Lots of Chevy parts?
Just about the only shared part is GM’s “multistalk” cruise control signal and windshield wipers all on the same stalk, otherwise no, nothing is shared with lesser GM vehicles inside. Cadillac stuff was always Cadillac exclusive for the most part during this era.
Most of the interior is leather and there are plastics in places were even todays luxury cars have them, like in the base of the seats.
@@ic1815 My mother's '99 Fleetwood Brougham was luxurious and yet flawed. Air conditioning problems and overheating plagued it. It was a well appointed car, and wonderful to drive.
If only these cars had Navigation
It favors the Buick Roadmaster
I don’t understand the point of buying this gens Fleetwood over the concourse or deville. The one before this was RWD.
Extra legroom in the backseat and extra trunk room. It is a DeVille that got stretched 6" in the backseat and 6" in the trunk.
When you maintain ‘radio silence’ we don’t understand half of what you’re trying to show us. Also we can easily misconstrue what you are saying. For instance: when you go to show that this is an extra-length Cadillac, unless folks already knew that about the Limited they might not pick up on that. Or the might think you’re trying to say that the trunk is bigger. Of course we who are already familiar with the Ltd. know that the extra length is in the rear passenger compartment.
It appeared that the trunk release button did not work. What was the other button below the TR button?
Please add some narration.
He already made a spoken video before, it's one of the first videos he uploaded to the channel.
No. He’s made a review video. The POV’s are narration free thankfully. Calming and nice to watch. If you want to know about it/have it explained, watch his review…
And it’s called valet lockout. Trunk works just fine.
I do understand where you are coming from, but Julian and IC are correct. The POV videos are meant to compliment the reviews, they are by no means a replacement or a rehash. I usually film a review where I give my input on the vehicle (although my FL review was my first ever video and probably deserves an update), and then I make a POV video to let the viewer experience the vehicle for themselves. Hopefully people will watch both videos to understand and then experience the car. I hope this explanation makes sense. Thank you for watching the video!
what about that shit northstar motor though
Fortunately, the 1993-1996 Cadillac Fleetwood, which came with the LT1 engine and the RWD system, has equal performance to the 1998-1999 Fleetwood.
I need to do one of these in 1996 it was the biggest piece of shit I ever owned there was nothing in it a Toyota Camry had more equipment in this car was a concourse that was a real Cadillac but I didn’t know it at the time and it didn’t have that much stuff in it either this this wasn’t even a Cadillac this was either a Buick or a Pontiac at the time or an Oldsmobile it wasn’t a Cadillac anymore I believe it started in 1992 were Cadillac really wasn’t a Cadillac anymore
They did not even share the platform, and if you are really strict to what a cadillac should be, then the last proper cadillacs were from 1973.
You make 0 sense. This was and still is miles ahead of the comparable year Camry. Lol.
Lol
It was exactly a year later I traded it in on a BMW 740 series much much much better car at least it had equipment in it this car was just a big boat with no equipment disgraceful car sorry for being so blunt but I just didn’t like this car
You didn’t have this car. Lmfao.
U don't make sense
If you Pay close attention to this video you’ll see this car has nothing in it it was like nothing you might as well have gotten a Pontiac or an Oldsmobile base models this car was a joke my lease at the time of $$650 two-year lease red carpet with 50,000 miles allowance
Do a little research, there were massive differences between those and this one.
None of what you’re saying makes any sense.
