The 1959 DeVille sedan with a flat top was one of Cadillac's most popular hardtop sedans. The spectacular curve of the roof line behind the panoramic rear window was modern for that day. The classic four-window Sedan deVille with a panoramic roof complementing the iconic tail fin stabilizers was impressive and expressive. The 1959 hardtop Deville sedan retained that balanced dignity that was the hallmark of every Cadillac. The magnificent 1959 Cadillac Eldorado fins became a striking example of the style of that time.
No other Cadillac Deville has received wider recognition as a 1959 Cadillac. They were the quintessential status symbol when America was a "Fantasy Island" and even the wildest dream could come true. The 1959 Cadillac Eldorado was the height of excess and the epitome of luxury. Cadillac was a supplier of luxury cars... and the "benchmark of the world" in presence and prestige.
