1987 Cadillac Brougham d'Elegance

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Introduced in 1987, the Cadillac Brougham was built on the long-lived GM B platform to emphasize comfort, smooth ride quality, and classic American styling with chrome accents and a formal roofline. Power came from V8 engines paired with automatic transmissions, prioritizing refinement over performance. Inside, plush seating, woodgrain trim, and generous space defined the experience. The optional d’Elegance package elevated luxury further, adding tufted pillow-style seats, upgraded upholstery, distinctive badging, and extra sound insulation.

This 1987 Brougham d’Elegance is finished in white with a vinyl roof cover and powered by a 5.0L V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission.

The exterior is accented by polished trim, B-pillar opera lights, and elegance badging and rides on 15” wire-spoke wheels. Additional features include power-assisted steering and front disc brakes, independent front suspension, a four-link live rear axle, and stabilizer bars.

Inside, tan leather upholstery covers power-adjustable front seats and a rear bench with a fold-down center armrest. The door panels feature courtesy lights, while reading lights are provided for the rear passengers. Other amenities include cruise control, electronic climate control, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo.

This Brougham is offered at no reserve with a CARFAX Vehicle History Report and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.
