Has anyone ever heard of a centennial edition coupe deville? I haven't but this guy on ebay is selling his car as a centennial edition. It looks like Fleetwood Brougham front seats. Haha they don't even match the back seats. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4528826100&fromMakeTrack=true

I think that car is very correct. The seats are fine for that year. That's the way there were done. That's a very nice car if it's really original and isn't full of bondo. I would guess it's worth a few bucks.

Oh ok. I just had never heard of a centennial edition on a DeVille. I have seen the centennial Eldorados that they built to commemorate te last American convertible, and those were all white with red piping on the leather and red accents. The seats were all the same style though.

I like the footrests in the rear reminds me of Rolls Royce Silver Spur. Neat. Foot rests which are for the comfort of one who is being driven yet this car is a 2 door. Interesting.

The footrests are ok, but for them to be of any use, you need a real short back passenger or the driver and front passenger have to have their front seat way up. I never used them on my old Fleetwood because I was always driving. Most of my passengers felt cramped with them down. That's why I'm skeptical about a coupe with a shorter wheelbase than the Fleetwood having footrests. Sometimes people are miss informed about stuff like that. It could be legit, but I have seen people advertise 1978 Town Cars as Cartier special editions just because they have a Cartier logo on the clock, but all Town Cars had Cartier clocks.

I have a few reservations about the "Centennial Cadillac"....Yes, it is a good looking car, in very nice shape, and the price does seem like a good deal, but...

1) The Centennial of Cadillac was in 2002, so I don't know what Centennial this car is celebrating in 1976.
2) The may be trying to capitalize on the Bicentennial Eldorados that were produced that same year. Cadillac produced and numbered 200 of the white convertibles with red interior accents and red & blue pinstripes. In fairness, the owner may just be confused.
3) The door panels have covers, probably to hide cracks. It is nearly impossible to replace or repair those door panels.
4) See the dash cover? Again, probably cracked underneath.
5) Hupcaps are from the 1990s.
6) Front seats are wrong. They should have the same three long stiches, like the rear seats.

All-in-all a clean car, so I'm sure the new owner will be happy.

After furthur research I found that the seats are wrong. I'm not sure if the front or rear are correct but something is wrong.

As far as the hub caps go they look very much like the one's off my 78' Coupe' I don't think they're 90's

Yes a great looking car but a collector shoudl not buy it.

I agreed! You can easy see from '75 Caddy Coupe Deville's front seats:
