Much money has been spent to make this Eldorado convertible safe and reliable after sitting for 8 years. She
still needs some little things, but you can enjoy this Caddy as you fix her up a bit more.
*** Sports Car / Project Car / Trades Considered ***
This Eldorado convertible was recently re-commissioned after sitting garaged, in New Jersey for 8+ years. It was
purchased in Texas, driven up to New Jersey, used very little, then stored. The odometer shows 55K, I believe it to
be correct, the interior looks as so. The recent (2015) NJ title shows 154K
I just had this Eldorado professionally cleaned / polished on the outside to show the quality of the repaint
(some flaws as pictured) The chrome is very nice with some light weathering at the tops of the bumpers. This
interior will clean up much nicer as well as the engine bay, door jambs, trunk and undersides. There is new weather
stripping for the trunk, no leaks, but could use replacement.
Some of the work performed within the last 400 miles includes:
All Systems Were Cleaned and Flushed., the fuel tank cleaned, cooling system, oil changed (2X), transmission
fluid / filter changed and the brake system had new fluid when the hydraulics were replaced.
New Tires, Battery, Alternator, Tune-Up, R134 Refrigerant Upgrade (the air blows cold), A Complete Brake System
Overhaul (master cylinder, front calipers, rotors, pads rear wheel cylinders, drums and shoes)
This Eldorado is not perfect, but shows very well. All the body gaps and shut lines look great. The exterior trim
and moldings are in very nice condition with no dents, no heavy scrapes or gouges. The interior is soft and looks
great (just lightly cleaned) with only minimal wear. She has an earlier repaint (with some flaws, request
additional pictures), a newer convertible top with the glass rear window, a fiberglass top / boot cover is included
and a full size spare tire was purchased. The original owners manual, a factory shop manual and custom car cover
are included as well.
A Few Things Are Inoperable, Needing Attention: The Horn, The Clock, Passenger Side Power Door Lock, Rear Bumper
Fillers Are Cracked (new ones purchased & with the car), A Cracked Rear Reflector, Missing The Rear View Mirror,
The Muffler Sounds Raspy But Not Loud. This Caddy Needs To Be Driven.

2014 Cadillac CTS debuts new design, twin-turbo power, Vsport model [w/video]

Tue, 26 Mar 2013


If ever there were a Cadillac to truly rival the world's best, this could be it.
With every new model, Cadillac indeed gets closer and closer to actually performing at the top of its class, rivaling those crafty Germans at their own sport/luxury sedan game. The best example yet of Cadillac's efforts to challenge the world came last year, when we met the 2013 ATS - a vehicle that we praised for its on-road dynamics and interior refinement, and later went on to be named North American Car of the Year.

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017

Tue, Feb 17 2015

Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).
