1968 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe

In 1967 Cadillac transformed the Eldorado into a whole new “Personal Luxury” automobile. The all new Eldorado Coupe shared the Oldsmobile Toronado’s United Power Plant Package and front wheel drive set up. The redesigned Eldorado was a very crisp and distinct model that gave the brand a very modern and competitive edge in the luxury marketplace. The Eldorado was an instant success and for model year 1968 disc brakes became standard along with new safety features and by 1968.

I am pleased to offer this very rare and desirable 1968 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe presented in lovely Monterey Green Firemist Metallic over White leather and black interior. This Eldorado has had a repaint in its original Monterey Green Firemist some time ago and still looks very nice retaining an excellent shine. The original leather interior is great with absolutely no tears or fading. The driver door arm rest does show some cracking and wear. The original black carpets are still intact along with the cars original dashboard and vinyl headliner. The car still retains its original Cadillac wheels, steering wheel, radio, and all of its original interior and exterior trim. This Eldorado starts right up and runs very well, it idles very nicely and the transmission shifts smoothly without any issues. The brakes feel great, the suspension feels nice and is free from any rattles or squeaks. The chrome on the exterior looks nice but does show a little pitting on the lower and a couple bubble spots on the lower area. The body is very straight and accident and dent free. There are a couple spots that are bubbling under the paint, one on the lower left hood and a couple small spots in the trunk area. The headlights are powered by vacuum assist and work well, all of the lights work. All of the exterior lights are working, the reverse lights, side marker lights and headlights are all working. Interior lights work, the power windows are in working order and even the power seats are in working order. Original spare tire in in truck. This Cadillac is a very nice original low-mile car that had become increasingly hard to find over the past few years. If you are looking for a very nice, well maintained and rare original early Eldorado Coupe this is it, an extremely handsome and nice example.

GM CEO Barra says 'we are selling every truck we can build'

Tue, Jun 14 2022

DETROIT — General Motors Chief Executive Mary Barra said on Monday the automaker is "selling every truck we can build" and expanding North American truck-building capacity, even as U.S. gasoline prices hit record highs. Barra made her comments during the automaker's annual shareholder meeting. GM is pursuing a two-track strategy: Investing heavily in electric vehicles for North America, China and other markets, and funding those investments by trying to maximize profits from its North American combustion pickup truck and large SUV lineups. Barra said GM is planning higher-priced versions of its Silverado large pickup and its large SUV models. GM and its Detroit rivals Ford Motor Co and Stellantis NV rely heavily on sales of large pickup trucks and SUVs for global profits. High U.S. gasoline prices in the past have undermined consumer demand for relatively inefficient models. Nominal pump prices hit an average of above $5 a gallon for the first time ever last week, the federal government said Friday. GM is ramping up production of EVs. Barra said the Cadillac Lyriq electric sport utility is sold out through 2023. In response to shareholder questions, Barra said the "clear priority" for using cash generated by its operations is to "accelerate our EV plans." She did not rule out share buybacks or other approaches to returning cash to shareholders. GM still expects to increase production this year by 25-30%, despite continuing pressure on semiconductor supplies globally. Barra said GM is working to redesign vehicles to reduce the number of processors required by 95%. Barra serves as GM's board chair and CEO. GM shareholders overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to separate those roles.

Cadillac moving to NY as separate business unit

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

Cadillac is under new leadership, and the automaker is committed to turning itself (back) into a global luxury powerhouse. It's got a strong product offensive (of products currently in showrooms, and much more on the way), and now it will have a new location to call home.
Following earlier speculation, GM has confirmed that it is moving Cadillac's base of operations from Detroit to New York. Lest you think it might rent offices in the Chrysler Building (which is, after all, one of the tallest in the city), the new Cadillac global headquarters will be located in the Soho area with a "multipurpose brand and event space in conjunction with modern loft offices." The company is still evaluating which staff will move along with it to Manhattan, and which will remain in Michigan where technical operations will still be based.
The move from Detroit to New York is the first major change being instituted by new Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen, who previously undertook a similar shift in moving Infiniti away from Nissan headquarters to its own facility in Hong Kong. Ford had attempted a similar move in relocating its luxury portfolio under the Premier Automotive Group (which then included Lincoln, Mercury, Land Rover, Jaguar, Aston Martin and Volvo) from Dearborn to Irvine, CA, but ended up moving Lincoln (the last one still under the Ford umbrella) back to Michigan. Other luxury automakers like Audi (Volkswagen) and Maserati (Fiat) are headquartered away from their parent companies as well, but have a longer history of independent operation.
