Will Cadillac owners ever forgive us?
When you compare their Sedan
DeVille to our Chrysler Fifth Avenue,
it’s amazing how much luxury these
two cars have in common. Until you get
to the base sticker price. That’s where
Chrysler has the advantage. The
$9,500 Advantage!
But we don't just protect you from a
high price. We also protect you with the
7 YEARS/
100.000
best owner care you get from any lux
ury sedan. Our exclusive Crystal Key
warranty!*
The highest quality
rating in its class.
With its wealth of luxury features and
engineering advantages, it’s no wonder a
recent independent buyer survey rated
Fifth Avenue the highest quality car in
its class. In fact, the Consumer Attitude
Research Company rated it #1 in every
single category when it came to quality.
And that included fit, finish, overall
quality of workmanship and freedom
from noise.*
Perhaps the most important engi
neering advantage that you’ll find on
any car, however, is the driver’s air bag.
It’s included as standard equipment in
every Chrysler brand car. When used
with the safety belt, it is the most effec
tive driver protection
you’ll find. And
letter after
grateful letter
has told us one
thing for certain-air
bags help save lives.
There is no luxury without
engineering.
Fifth Avenue is engineered with one
advantage after another. And if you’re
still thinking of buying a Cadillac Sedan
DeVille, we know 9,500 advantages to
keep in mind. The $9,500 Advantage.
