Cadillac Fleetwood II (C-body FWD) gallery (1985–1992)
The second-generation Cadillac Fleetwood (1985–1992) adopted a front-wheel-drive C-body unibody architecture with a transverse V8 drivetrain.
The second-generation Cadillac Fleetwood was manufactured from 1985 through 1992 on General Motors' front-wheel-drive C-body unibody chassis. Offered in two-door coupe and four-door sedan body configurations, it provided traditional luxury in a more modern, space-efficient package. A major 1989 restyle lengthened the sedan's wheelbase and rear body overhangs, restoring a commanding appearance. The line also encompassed the long-wheelbase Fleetwood Sixty Special luxury sedan.

Transmissions were 4-speed automatic transaxles (4T60/4T60-E). Factory equipment encompassed ABS brakes, digital instrumentation, power memory seats, and an available Bose premium audio system.
