From 1985 onwards, the C-body designation was used for front-wheel drive luxury cars. The platform was similar to the H platform, with both sharing the same 110.8 in wheelbase. Most C-body vehicles were replaced with cars on the related G, H, and K platform designations.
The Cadillac Series 75 briefly made its return on this platform, stretched by 23.6" to a wheelbase of 134.4".
This platform was the basis for the following vehicles:

“People’s backyards are much more interesting than their front gardens, and houses that back on to railways are public benefactors.”

Has never availed the cumbersome grindstone
To get it anywhere that I can see.”

“we, outlaws on God’s property,
Fling out imagination beyond the skies,
Wishing a tangible good from the unknown.
And likewise death will drive us from the scene
With the great flowering world unbroken yet,
Which we held in idea, a little handful.”
—Richard Eberhart (b. 1904)
