The song is called I Maschi and is by the Italian singer Gianna Nannini.

What do these old American cars feel like to drive?

[GRUWEZ]

This car only has 18,000 original miles, so it feels pretty much like a new car. Of course, it has the typical soft suspension and ride of a 1970s Land Yacht. But it feels pretty tight and solid, unlike the many high miles cars of that era.

I hate the "cab forward" & front wheel drive platform combo design on most modern cars now.

The leading edge of the front door is actually part of the front wheel well on most cars now.

My Father and Grandfather always had cars like this with big long hoods and powerful V-8's.

Long wheel base for great rides with long graceful body lines.

I remember my cousins in the summer time actually sleeping overnight outdoors on the hood of these cadillacs at my Grandpa's ranch. Those were the days!

@RossPK81 If you spent 10 hours behind the wheel of this car, you would drive your present car off a cliff. I have owned a 1971 Fleetwood, 1976 Coupe DeVille, 1983 Sedan DeVille, 1995 Fleetwood as well as others. When it came to riding comfort, NONE could compare to the 1973-1976 Cadillacs. You would have to ride in one to know.

I hope I have answered you to your satisfaction.♥

I cry every time I watch this video.

Love those '70`s big Caddy`s for sure! From a time gone by when "excess ruled!".

I`ve got a mint '78 Caddy Sedan Deville and it drives great! Great highway cruiser.It`s not quite as big as the one in this video--but it`s still a huge ride.GM downsized them in the '77 model year,shaving hundreds of pounds of weight and some 7 inches or so in length to pacify the stricter gas mileage laws of the time.

@GRUWEZ It looks like it accelerates faster than I would expect. This would be the 472 with 205 net horsepower. Even the 500 had only 210. Lots of torque though. 380 at 2400 RPM.One of my dream cars. I still like bullet 'Birds but they don't have much headroom and I'm around 6'4''.

I owned a Caillac like this one-a 74' Coupe DeVille-light green in High School--I got it up to 100-110 miles an hour on 684 in Westchester, N.Y. in the years 82-84?? Everybody knew of me because of the "Green-Cadi". I had to fill the gas tank often--sometimes $75.00/week!! Back then I think gas was under $1.00. Once I took a trip to Poughkeepsie with some friends from H.S. to a funeral, filled up the gas tank, and got back home-the gas gauge read near empty. Drove from Mt.Kisco to Poughkeepsie!

@RossPK81 ---Ever pilot a yacht?--My dad had a 1974 caddy Sedan De Ville! Still it was a great ride!

[midnitesquirldog]

these cars are great you feel like your on a cloud when driving

[bigredsled67]

For those who travel well- CADILLAC! Thank You for keeping her new and absolutely original! This what people looked for in a car of "Status" No new Caddy can even compare- Thanks

Hi from Geneva (Switzerland), I have the same in dark metalic green with beige interior. I like the 1974 models. I also have the hearse in dark blue, the eldorado in red with white interior, the limo 75 series in all dark blue and the withe fleetwood grey interior. I LOVE IT. I'm just waiting for a Talisman now to complete the 1974 collection.
