Have you ever dreamed of discovering a car that was tucked away in a garage and forgotten? That happened to me when I found this beautiful 1979 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz. This was my elderly neighbor’s car that she purchased new at a local dealership. She drove it only during the warmer months, and then parked it inside her garage while she drove her AWD Mercedes in the winter. In 1994 she moved to Florida to live with her son and the car remained parked in a climate controlled garage, covered up until her son sold it to me last year. I moved into my house in 1998 so I did not know the car was sitting there until the day her son had the garage door open and I stumbled across it. Now anyone who knows anything about cars knows that you just can’t get in it and drive it after it has sat for 18 years. I spent almost $4,000.00 to get this Cadillac roadworthy, but now it runs and drives quite nicely. Tires and brakes are great, engine and transmission are smooth, and all electrical components work including the automatic ride leveler and cruise control. The next owner should not have to put very much money into the vehicle, if any. Should be able to drive it any distance with confidence. The interior is almost flawless with no rips, tears, or even any wear areas. To my knowledge the car has never been smoked in, eaten or drank in. The dash is excellent with the dash pad not faded or cracked anywhere. There is very little pitting anywhere on the chrome. The headliner was replaced by me. The outside is clean, straight, and rust free with a couple of small areas with a little surface rust. There is a boo boo on the passenger’s side behind the front bumper (pictured). I have no reason to believe the mileage of 43,590 is not original. I didn’t do any major detailing to the car,just washed it and vacuumed the interior. Trunk and engine compartment are the way they looked when I pulled it out of the garage.

I can go on and on about the superior condition of the Cadillac, but I’m running out of text space. It is offered at no reserve; however I express the right to sell it locally, so it is subject to availability. Inspections are welcomed and recommended but I would be astonished if an inspector found anything of consequence. If you require more information, please reply to the ad with your phone number and I will reply as soon as possible. Thank you for considering my vehicle.

I forgot to add a few things.

The paint has some minor scratches but not easily noticed. Just above the driver's rear tire molding is a dent about the size of a quarter that has some surface rust. I'd rate the body and paint at 8.5-9 out of 10.

The rubber seals around the windows and doors are still soft and pliable. I ran it through a carwash just before taking pictures and there was not one drop of water that got inside the car.I have driven it 70 MPH on the highway and there is very little wind noise. The cabin is very quiet and comfortable. All the glass is completely scratch and chip free. The window motors are smooth and strong. It's not an exaggeration to say the interior smells like a new car when you open the doors. There are no rattles or squeaks when driving over railroad tracks. This car is in unbelievable condition. I have all the original manuals. Spare has never been removed from the trunk. Bumpers are perfect with no dings or pitting. I think you can see where I am going with this!

Cadillac's striking Escala concept is reportedly headed for production

Mon, Mar 19 2018

Cadillac is reportedly planning a new flagship four-door, and it won't be based on its alphanumeric naming system a la the CT6. It'll be the Escala, the stunning concept fastback it revealed in 2016 in Pebble Beach. The news comes via Autoline, which cites AutoForecast Solutions. The Escala is said to be planned for production starting in December 2021 at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck plant, which currently builds the CT6, Buick LaCrosse and Chevrolet Volt and Impala. That suggests the Escala, which was branded as a four-door coupe, will likely keep that layout. It'll also be built on the CT6 platform. Cadillac has been talking about fitting a flagship sedan above the CT6 for years, and the Escala's design language has been influencing bits of other Cadillac models, from the refresh of the CT6 to the broad grille shape on the new XT4 crossover, which debuts at the New York Auto Show next week. The concept Escala featured a wide, muscular stance and a minimalist, white mid-century modern interior aesthetic, with tail lamps that evoke waterfowl in flight. Interestingly, it came equipped with a 4.2-liter twin-turbo V8 with cylinder deactivation, which Cadillac President Johan De Nysschen said at the time was "absolutely worthy of a car of this caliber." But with such a long horizon before production, there's obviously lots of time to develop a more pragmatic production model and cue ravenous speculation. Or, for that matter, to decide to rename it something like the CT8.
