    Well, unless it has the 'optional' 4.1 liter V6, this Fleetwood Brougham is going to be equipped with the 368 cubic-inch (and troubled) 4-6-8 engine.....engine emblems not showing.

    And it was so bad they only used that cylinder deactivation system for 1 year. Thought it was pretty common for the 4 -6-8 feature to be totally disconnected or set up with an on/off switch for highway trips . Maybe not legal and detectable in CA smog tests but in a state like FL nobody would ever know. Really an attractive car IMO and the interior is way beyond anything I have ever owned.
