Front Seats Ranked 1999 Cadillac DeVille Sedan FWD better.

Family Car Ranked 1999 Cadillac DeVille Sedan FWD better.
"Simple. The passenger capacity. Of course the DeVille is a better family car because it has space for 5 to 6 occupants while the 350z omly has space for the driver and one passenger."

Looks/Style Ranked 2016 Nissan 370Z Base worse.
