1959 CADILLAC ELDORADO BROUGHAM Older Restored A perfect and Rare (only 99 built) investment to add to your fun and excitement while a rising investment in your portfolio. These cars are set to really take-off as so many rare low production classic cars have lately. The 1959 Cadillacs were nothing if not extravagant, with big engines, posh interiors and even bigger fins. It was the ultimate fin treatment on Cadillacs, accented with matching front and rear grille treatments and immense chrome bumpers like the exhaust ports on intergalactic space ships. Fortunately one Cadillac in 1959 was much more restrained, even refined, the Eldorado Brougham hardtop. Its small, sharp fins foreshadowed Cadillac's redesign for 1960. Its expansive flanks were attractively creased but free from gaudy embellishment. A flat windshield that eliminated the knee-knocker encroachments of the rest of Cadillac's wraparound screens foreshadowed 1961. The Eldorado Broughams were bodied in Italy by Pinin Farina on Cadillac's standard 130 inch wheelbase chassis equipped with 345hp 390 cubic inch triple carburetor engines shipped from the U.S., then returned to Cadillac for completion at Fleetwood to customers' orders. The Eldorado Brougham's price of $13,074 FOB Detroit over a thousand dollars more than the median single family house value in the U.S. It's not surprising, then, that only 99 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Broughams were built, followed by 101 in 1960 when the model was dropped from Cadillac's catalog. Much more rare than the 57 or 58. In addition to being loaded with every available option and accessory in Cadillac's extensive catalog the Eldorado Brougham had rear door quarter windows that automatically retracted when the door latch was operated. It facilitated entry and exit, but even today startles those who aren't prepared for it. Current NADA shows the value of this car at --low-$74K, average $104K and High $168K--so you decide?? |

2020 Cadillac XT5 leaks onto web, adopts elements from smaller XT4
Mon, Jan 21 2019Cadillac just showed the new XT6 at the 2019 Detroit Auto Show, but today's news covers its smaller brother the XT5. A couple of leaked images on GM Authority along with information about the cars squirmed its way onto the web for the 2020 mid-cycle refresh, and we have the details for you. In looking at the shots here, not much has changed. The mesh grille is the most obvious update, adopting the same look as the compact XT4 crossover. Its lower grille has ever-so-slightly grown in size, and the headlights and taillights get new internal LED designs. Yawn. Better news comes out of the powertrain side. Information from the leak suggests GM's updated 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder will be tapped for duty. As of now, the 2.0-liter offered in international markets has not been an option in the U.S. That could very well change this time around, since it's already being used in one Cadillac — see our first drive of the XT4 with this engine for the full breakdown on its improved refinement and efficiency. The 3.6-liter V6 will undoubtedly carry over, but it'll be getting the GM nine-speed automatic also paired to the new four-cylinder. This should be a marked improvement over the Aisin-based eight-speed torque converter it makes do with now. We weren't exactly blown away by the Cadillac XT6's interior, but expect styling elements from the slightly newer Caddy SUV to make its way to the XT5, too. A reveal for this updated crossover should be on its way soon, as GM will most likely be selling the updated 2020 XT5 before the year is done. We asked GM if it could confirm or deny any of the information in this report, and will update when we hear back. Related video:
Combative de Nysschen defends Cadillac move, naming change
Mon, 29 Sep 2014
Johan de Nysschen isn't afraid of taking quick, decisive actions, even if they are criticized. Since taking the wheel at Cadillac, he instigated moving the luxury division's base of operations to Manhattan's SoHo neighborhood and introduced a new naming scheme for the future of the brand, like he did at Infiniti. The polarizing boss recently explained his feelings about the future of Cadillac in more depth on his Facebook page, but unfortunately only his friends could read it. Thankfully, Daily Kanban posted much of the strongly worded missive for the whole world to see.
Much of the message examines the decision to move some employees to New York. De Nysschen claims that it's all about giving Cadillac distance from Detroit to reshape itself. It allows for, "No distractions. No side shows. No cross-brand corporate considerations. No homogenized lowest common denominator approach. Just pure, unadulterated, CLASS."
Cadillac CT6 beefs up with 400-hp twin-turbo V6
Fri, Mar 20 2015Cadillac's engine lineup is set to get a makeover led by the potent powerplants under the hood of the CT6. Our man Steven Ewing is onsite at an event in Detroit reporting all the details. Here's what we know so far: The CT6's top engine will be a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6. It's the first twin-turbo with cylinder deactivation, which essentially makes the V6 able to convert to a V4 unit. Power will be 400 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 400 pound-feet of torque at just 2,500 rpm. No word on what a potential CT6-V would get. The CT6 will also have a naturally aspirated V6 that Cadillac is claiming to be all-new. It's rated at 335 hp at 6,800 rpm and 284 lb-ft at 5,300 rpm. That's an improvement of 14 hp and nine lb-ft compared with today's 3.6-liter V6, and fuel economy increases nine percent. Cadillac says it's the highest output for a naturally aspirated V6 that's SAE-certified and runs on regular fuel. Both of these V6s will have stop/start technology and will be paired to with eight-speed automatic transmissions. The 3.6-liter V6 will also be used in the 2016 CTS and the 2016 ATS. Meanwhile, Ewing reports that Cadillac says the ATS-V is actually more powerful than initially announced, though there are no numbers to flesh that claim out as yet. The brand also plans to offer four- and six-cylinder diesel engines in various vehicles and new V8 options. The CT6 bows at the New York Auto Show. It will use an aluminum-intensive body that reduces weight by 198 pounds compared with a steel setup and continues Cadillac's creased design language used on the CTS and ATS models. The CT6 goes into production late this year in Detroit.
