Considering a 93 or 95 deville. Both have the 4.9 liter. The 93 has 75k on it and the 95 has 85k so both fairly comparable. I can get the 93 for 2k and the 95 for around 2.5k Just looking for some pros and cons on each. Any big differences? Any info appreciated.

I like the '93 better, but I'm very biased lol. The '93 is around 500lbs lighter making it quicker 0-60. (a '93 with Touring Sedan gears will beat even a N* powered '95 to 60) Fuel economy is around the same, because even though the '95 is heavier it has a lower coefficient of drag. '95 has four wheel disc brakes, while the '93 is front disc, rear drum. '95 also has other little niceties, such as traction control, a quieter engine, dual airbags, etc.


It's personal preference really. Neither is drastically different, for better or for worse, from the other.

I have never warmed up to the styling of the 94-96 Devilles. I would say it's personal preference.

I have a 95 and have little complaints about it. But I'd go for the 4.9L with less mileage if everything else is in order.

93 for looks, 95 for everything else.

Go for the '95. I miss mine dearly, it was the best car I ever owned. The '95 makes much less wind noise on the highway and it rides a little softer.

The 95 has a nicer interior and door panels that don't fall apart. They also drive better. Anything else comes down to looks. So just get whatever one you like the best.

The door panels don't fall apart, the vinyl on the arms just cracks

I think the 93 actually rides softer, but its also bouncier.

And you can buy replacements for those on ebay pretty cheap.

Even in white?

I like the way the '93 looks more...the classic hard-edged styling, the full tail lights (on the 94-96, they don't go lower than the bumper), and the open rear wheel wells. The '95 looks more whalish and rounded, but it's got a much more modern interior (the '93's interior was designed for '85) and it's quieter inside.

Your pick is as good as mine.

The '93 for smooth ride.

I have never liked the whale bodies however they are longer and more luxurious

I agree the 93. i heard bad things about the 94s and up. the northstar engine i hear stuff about blown heads and such but i think its just a high maintence engine and requires a lot tlc. I believe it varys. But I go with a 93 my friend had a 95 blown head 120k

95 Deville doesn't have Northstar unless it's a Concours. Only 1996 and newer Devilles have it.
