Okay, this may not be our first choice for a great car. The ride is floaty, numb, and altogether disconnected from the road. There are people who like this sort of ride, and like the idea of being surrounded by a tank’s worth of iron. Plus, as an out-going model to be replaced by the new Cadillac DTS, DeVille buyers get a $6,000 dealer incentive, plus a good finance rate and probably GM’s special Employee Discount pricing, which is addition to any rebates offered. If you’re looking for a big American luxury car, this deal is simply too good to pass up.

A six-passenger luxury sedan, the DeVille comes with a standard 4.6-liter V8 engine that generates 275 horsepower and is rated by the EPA at 18 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.
