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!

It's an old allante trick.  Stealth?  Care to give away the secret?

man does that bring back old memories..
the class on the  " é  " 
i made a whole long thread of that  ...


“Extended ASCII code ..”

Hold down  the “ ALT “  key and while holding down key, type the number.
Then let go of the “Alt” key.

Alt  130  => É
Alt  136 =>  ê
Alt  137 =>  ë
Alt  138 =>  è


1 to 127 is the standard set that defines the  keyboard.
You don’t need the Alt key to do those.
The Alt 128  to  Alt 256 is the extended set via the “ Alt “ key.
