My Ciera has the Holiday Coupe package, which was a option on 1984,1985,and1986 Brougham Coupes. It cost $565. I know that it added a landau vinyl roof, opera windows, and a few trim parts, but I dont know much else. Can anyone tell me what interior things or anything else that the Holiday Package contained? :D

I found the ad online for the 1984 Cutlass Ciera Hoiday coupe. It shows the car with whitewall tires and the chrome wire hubcaps, both which my car has. Also as I expected, the vinyl roof, and other exterior Holiday changes were visable. There is also a shot of the inside, which appears to have leather seats, which a two tone, and has the same basic seat as my car. If anyone finds any ads like this for any year Holiday coupe, please post it.

I saw another Holiday coupe today, the 1st time ive seen one in person (other then mine). It was white with a white top wire hubcaps and a luggage rack.
As I know know they came in at least these colors:

white, cream, red, gray, light blue, teal and dark blue

I have an 84 holiday coupe. Mine has the vinyl roof, smaller windows, wire wheels and extra trim parts. It dosen't have leather seats. According to a 1984 brouchure, the extra trim and wire wheels come with the brougham package, which is needed for the holiday package. The brouchure says that the holiday coupe comes with a special padded landau roof and distinctive striping, and thats it, the rest must be included in the brougham package.

Yeah this is although a rear car, I must say that other then the way the back of the roof looks, its just a regular Brougham coupe. These were really just exersies in marketing as the Holiday package changed the Brougham coupe very little. But there were around 10000 made per year, and that makes them special.

O and I also have cloth seats in my Holiday, the destinctive striping must be pin stripe. The changes to the car were done by ASC, the same company that did th 1st factory sun roof (1968 Cougar) and makes the retractable top for the Chevy SSR. The Holiday also deleated all of the exterior Brougham/LS trim off of these cars, but Brougham is present on the inner door. The package cost $565 for the 1984, and 1985 models, and went up to I think $625 for 1986.

The reason for the smaller "opera' side windows was to give the rear seat passengers the feel of being in a limo, or so Im told.
