1963 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible 390 Auto on 2040-cars

1963 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible. The vehicle's restoration was completed in 2010 and has been driven less than 2,000 miles since its completion.191 total production for the Eldorado Biarritz Convertible and very few in this condition are in existence. The Eldorado's condition is a solid number 2 but with a minimal investment could easily be a number 1 and worth over $120K. The exterior paint color is a Matador Red Metallic with red/white interior. The paint is not perfect and does have some blemishes but can be easily corrected without painting the entire vehicle. The top is white and operates fantastically. The top's boot is virtually new since it has been rarely used. The interior of the Eldorado was redone in Genuine leather and the pattern was reproduced from the original. A Custom Audio head unit retains the appearance of the original radio but delivers state of the art sound and function. The stereo systems includes a digital equalizer, 10 CD changer, 1" tweeters (2), 6.5" mids (2) and 12" subs (2); all powered by 2 separate amplifiers. The system has been installed seamlessly and the big sound improves the driving experience. The 390 V8 engine was rebuilt and is still in great condition. The car will start right up and correctly adjust it's idle after warm up just like it did when it was brand new. The transmission was upgraded to a turbo 400 which is far more reliable than the original Hydrajet. The Eldorado's shifts are firm and precise and will get up and go despite its hefty weight. The carburetor was upgraded to a more reliable and fuel efficient Edlebrock. A car this size impressively still manages to deliver an average of 14 mpg City and 18 mpg Hwy. The front brakes were upgraded to discs for superior braking capability. All of the power options work including the powered vent windows which are impressive to see that existed in 1963. The chrome and stainless steel was all re-chromed and re-polished although some of it shows some blemishes but truly impressive for a 50 year old vehicle. The Eldorado's original appearance has been preserved yet all of the mechanical upgrades ensure that this vehicle will be road worthy no matter the distance. There is piece of mind knowing that the Eldorado is as reliable as it looks. A true show winner and it will be the last classic car that you will ever want to own. If you want to drive a classic car that is still as luxurious as when it was new than you want to own this 1963 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible. Limited space in my collection forces me to sell this handsome beauty and it will be truly missed. All Buyers with zero ratings will be disregarded unless they contact me before bidding.

Autoblog Podcast #326:
Cadillac prepares to top its own 'Ring record with upcoming new CTS-V
Mon, 14 Jul 2014It was a big deal back in 2008 when the original Cadillac CTS-V clocked a lap time of 7:59 at the Nürburgring, making it the fastest sedan ever to lap the Nordschleife to that date. Not many four-doors have bested that time since - the list consisting pretty much only of the Porsche Panamera Turbo - but now hot hatches are lapping faster than that, so you can bet that the new one will manage an even better time.
Now we've spotted the upcoming new CTS-based performance sedan several times before undergoing testing in locations around the world, but this is the first time we've seen it at the Nürburgring, apparently using the Goodyear Dunlop test facility as its base of operations (and still wearing Michigan manufacturer plates, incidentally). Considering how well the outgoing CTS-V performed and how much further you can bet Cadillac will push the envelop this time around, a new sedan lap record is almost a certainty - and we can only hope for an all-out war between Europe's performance sedan power houses to ensue.
Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.
