Cadillac : Eldorado El Deora on 2040-cars
Fort Myers, Florida, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1972 Cadillac Eldorado with a little over 51k original miles. This car is a special custom package built by ASC Custom Craft. (American Sunroof Corporation) The package was called El Deora and offered through Cadillac dealers. It was a very rare ane expensive package which consisted of reworked grill and hood ornament, large power sunroof, heavilly padded landau roof extending into the doors, portholes, and faux spare tire hump on rear trunklid. The package competed with other "pimpmobile" builders in the early 70's such as Dunham Coach. But I believe this was the only package offered by Cadillac. The car is beautiful and is an all original survivor. It is turquoise with hand painted pinstriping and white leather. All power options inside, and ice cold climate control A/C. Everything works but for the cruise control, which works every now and then. Even all the fiber optic indicators and the automatic headlights work. The interior is near perfect, carpet is mint, backseat looks like its never been sat in and the front seat has minor patina from age but no cracks or tears. The car appears to always have been garaged. The weather stripping is still soft and in good shape. Dash is perfect Etc.. Engine is the 500 ci. that just had a fresh tune up. (points, condenser, cap, rotor, plugs, wires) Runs great, shifts smooth. No leaks that I can see. Drives unbelievable smooth and straight down the road. Brakes stop straight with no vibration. Whitewall firestone radials are in great shape with onlyb about !k miles. Origional full size bias ply is in the trunk. You get noticed in this car! I get more looks and thumbs up in this car than any other I've driven! The last few pics show the flaws : Scratch on Pass. door, small ding on driver fender, and small wrinkle on rear bumper. The only rust is a few pea sized bubbles at the base of the padded top, and a small approx 3'' spot behind both front wheels than you cant even see because of the stainless trim. Chrome and stainless in really good shape. I love this car and have been very reluctant to sell but I never use it and could use the space in the garage. Also... I bought the car from an elderly gentleman approx 3 years ago. He said he purchased the car from famous sportscaster Jimmy "The Greek" Snyder many years ago. I have not been able to prove this but just thought i'd throw it out there. Please feel free to call with any questions or if you want to come see the car. Thanks...Happy bidding. Ryan 239-218-9114

Cadillac launching crossover-heavy product offensive
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Utilizing information provided by Cadillac suppliers, Reuters says that Cadillac is preparing two more crossovers that will bow after its current product initiative is complete. According to the report, a year after the next SRX arrives in 2016, a pair of CUVs will be unveiled that will bracket it in size, and they'll be headed for the US and Chinese markets.
That is years away, though. For now, the company's attentions are on the nearly here CTS and ELR range-extended coupe, the next Escalade SUV (shown above), an ATS coupe, and the range-topper that will sit above the XTS. That, and possibly an even more impressive range-topper that promises to be the mean and majestic super-luxe unicorn Cadillac we've been dreaming about for more than a decade now.
In response to the issue of how German crossovers might be having an impact on Cadillac's future plans, a company source said - rightly, we think - "we don't need to duplicate the Germans." That doesn't mean, however, that it can't wade deeper into a market segment that the Germans are making a ton of money in. In fact, and since everyone is doing it, we'd be surprised if Cadillac didn't, even if it won't happen for another four years.
Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable
Sun, 10 Aug 2014A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
2013 Cadillac ATS Premium 2.0T 6MT
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The new Cadillac ATS is an impressive sport sedan, often considered one of the most serious threats to the BMW 3 Series. Unlike GM's previous attempts, this four door brings aggressive styling, commendable chassis dynamics and class-leading handling to the highly competitive battle. And, like its daunting German foe, Cadillac offer several powertrain choices.
I recently spent time with the ATS 2.0T Premium on my home California turf. Fitted with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox with a limited-slip rear differential, my tester was lightly optioned, with only a paint upgrade and a cold weather package. That brought the as-tested price to $46,305, configured the way I imagine most enthusiasts would prefer. This meant I fully expected to enjoy a week with a tossable sport sedan that boasted "fun-to-drive" as its middle name, but all was not well...
