Please, somebody correct the typos in the name of the marque; It's "Coupe (D/d)eVille".
Nowadays it is pronounced as "koop" but back in the '50s it was written as "Coupé" and sounded like "koo-pey". DeVille is written as one "word" and both capital and lower case "dee" was used by Cadillac in the name of this, now extinct, true American icon (or, "DEVILLE" as in its latest incarnation).
Thanks!
