Cadillac Seville is a famous and renowned model of Cadillac produced by General Motors. Cadillac Seville was launched in 1975 and continued to produce various models till 2004. Several parts of Chevrolet are used in the making of CS motors. This model of Cadillac faced several criticisms due to lacking traditional Cadillac quality; however, it still survived through all these years quite successfully.

The models of CS produced in the years 1980 till 1985 are named as "Slantback." CS was first launched in 1956 as a competitor to Eldorado convertible. However, it discontinued due to several reasons and then reappeared in 1975. The 1975 version of the Cadillac Seville was comparatively smaller in size than the one produced in 1956.

The 1983 model of CS is known to be constructed and re-engineered on the frame of Chevrolet Nova. This model had a wheel base of 114.3 inches and was 204 inches in length. This model of CS was equipped with a 350 cubic-inches of an Oldsmith diesel or gasoline engine. This model faced criticism due to this factor and also because of using not-so-Cadillac features and components.

The CS produced in 1998 was a redesigned version of its predecessor models. This 1998 model of CS was relatively smaller in size and had sharpened lines, lower profile, and a broad posture. This was done to enhance its market and to bring it in the line of famous luxury cars. Apart from this, some other changes were also brought in the overall design of the vehicle.

Cadillac Seville in known as the smallest Cadillac vehicle produced by General Motors. It was also the most expensive of 1975. Despite criticism and controversies, CS hit the market, and many Cadillac lovers admired this vehicle to a great extent.

Several variation of CS appeared in market from time to time. A version of CS known as Seville "elegante" was launched in 1978. This model had a two tone colour scheme of black and silver. Another version of CS was launched in 1979. This version of Seville was named as Gucci Seville and had a double interlocking logo "G" of Gucci carved on the leather seats, panels, wheel covers, trunk lid, and hood ornament.

The 2001 model of CS cars was based more on technological advancements rather than the design factor. The last model of Cadillac Seville was launched in 2003. Till 1998, Cadillac Seville was built on Oldsmobile Aurora platform. Cadillac Seville was discontinued in the year 2003 in order to make room for the newer version of Cadillac known as Cadillac STS.

All parts of CS vehicles are easily available in the market and on various online stores as well. The auto parts of Cadillac Seville are available for all the model and version of the car produced till date.

Cars In Extinction

When we think of vehicles no longer made, maybe we reminisce about the old Woody station wagon or Willys Jeep. But of late, cars that are still in our driveway are becoming cars of yesterday, that is, they are either no longer being made or slated to being discontinued. Will these vehicles too become collectibles? What vehicles are they?

The first is the Saturn. Saturn Corporation began making their vehicles in 1985 as a subsidiary of General Motors when GM was hoping to keep up in competition with Japanese imports with the creation of the Saturn. Vehicle sales didn't quite do that for GM and they decided to focus on their four core brands Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC. In 2009 GM was looking to sell their Saturn products to Penske Automotive. Penske backed out of the purchase and now all production has been halted and operations are expected to shut down by October 2010. Saturn isn't the only vehicle that lost focus for GM, sales slowed for their Pontiac, Hummer and Saab as well. But for now, we will be seeing the last of all the Saturn series this year.

What about the Oldsmobile? This brand of vehicle has been around forever and also a product of GM. The brand was started in 1897 by Ransom Olds and has sold over 35.2 million cars. Oldsmobile is considered the oldest surviving American automobile. Oldsmobile brand vehicles that have been phased out included the Bravada in 2002, Intrigue and Aurora V6 in 2002, Aurora V8 in 2003, Bravada SUV in 2004, Silhouette minivan in 2004 and Alero compact car in 2004.

The Plymouth has been around for some time as well. This vehicle was introduced to the market in 1928. It was the Chrysler Corporation's first shot at providing a low-priced vehicle to its consumers in efforts to compete with Chevrolet and Ford. Plymouths were actually priced a little higher than the competition, but they offered standard features such as internal expanding hydraulic brakes that the competition did not provide. Plymouths were originally sold exclusively through Chrysler dealerships. Plymouth's logo featured a rear view of the Mayflower ship that landed at Plymouth Rock. The last new model sold under the Plymouth marquee was the second generation Neon for 2000-2001.

Plymouth's PT Cruiser was ultimately launched as a Chrysler, and the Prowler and Voyager were absorbed into that make as well. Following the 2001 model year, the Neon was sold only as a Dodge in the US, though it remained available as a Chrysler in Canadian and other markets. After discontinuing the Eagle brand in 1998, Chrysler was planning to expand the Plymouth line with a number of unique models before the corporation's merged with Daimler-Benz AG. With the expansion they created the Plymouth Prowler, a retro looking hot rod sports car. This was followed by the PT Cruiser. Both models had similar retro themed front-end styling. At the time of Daimler's takeover of Plymouth the company didn't have any unique models besides the Prowler. While all Plymouth dealers also sold the Chrysler line of cars, many Dodge dealers sold only Dodge; it would have caused much greater disturbance to the dealer network to discontinue Dodge than Plymouth. Consequently, DaimlerChrysler decided to drop the make after a limited run of 2001 models. This was announced on November 3, 1999.

There are many cars both America and Foreign no longer made that many folks may still have parked in their garages and miss. They include: BMW Riley, BMW Triump, BMW Wolseley, Chrysler Hudson, Chrysler Nash, Chrysler Eagle, Chrysler Willys -Overland, Chrysler Maxwell, De Soto, Fiat Innocenti, Fiat Lancia, Ford Lagonda, Ford Tickford, Ford Edsel, GM Asuna, GM Geo, GM Laselle, GM Passport, MG Rover Austin-Healer, MG Rover Austin, MG Rover, Morris, MG Rover Qvale, MG Rover Standard, Renault Alpine, Datsun, Nissan Prince, Talbot Hillman, Talbot Simca, Talbot Sunbeam, Talbot-Lao, Audi DKW, NSU Wanderer.

This list may not even been comprehensive but certainly it may make you recall a few brands you once owned.

Oldsmobile Aurora dashboard design?

I am looking for vehicles that have dashboards like the Oldsmobile Aurora. Aurora's have been discontinued, but I like the way the console tilts towards the driver. Are there any other vehicles that have this same design concept?
