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.

Cadillac XT3 caught covered in copious camouflage

Wed, Feb 15 2017

While a bit difficult to tell thanks to the impressive camouflage used, what we're looking at here is likely the upcoming Cadillac XT3. There are a few details that stand out to lend credence to this prediction. There are a handful of sharp angles scattered throughout that are in line with Cadillac's modern design language. Specifically in the LED running lights and on the side mirrors. The rear profile also is reminiscent of the current, and slightly larger XT5. The rear lights extend into the D-pillars, which would match the current Escalade. We get a pretty clear picture of the rear suspension on this XT3. It's clearly an independent rear suspension using coil springs. While General Motors uses independent suspension on some of its crossovers, we can't quite match it to a particular model. We believe that if the XT3 is based on an existing model (which it almost certainly is), the platform and suspension have been substantially modified. The XT3 could use a version of the D2XX platform that underpins the Buick Envision. However, we know from a previous report that the XT3 will likely be built at the factory that produces the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Malibu. The XT5 uses a modified version of the LaCrosse/Malibu platform, so it's possible the XT3 could use a shorter version of the XT5 chassis. Depending on how small the XT3 ends up being, it might even share a platform with the Chevy Trax and Buick Encore. However, considering their economy car roots and torsion-bar rear suspension, we think that's the least likely. Regardless of what chassis is underneath its crisp bodywork, we expect the XT3 to be released sometime next year. Related Video:

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
