This immaculate 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz only has 32k miles.

 


This would be the last year for this Eldorado body which made it's debut in the fall of 1978(1979-1985). If ever there was a car that automotive enthusiasts and non-automotive enthusiasts alike will come together on, the Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is the one. Most will agree that this is one of the best looking cars ever created. It get's approving comments whenever it is driven from the young, old, male, and female alike about how great looking it is. That makes a strong statement about the future collectability of these Eldorados.

 

 These Eldorados continue to get better looking as the years go by as well. A unique ensemble of Cadillac tradition in design with it's limo style rear window and the rear of the car having definite styling cues from the 67-70 Eldorados. The Biarritz package raised the bar considerably with it's stainless steel roof which was a nod back to the 57 and 58 Eldorado Broughams. The Biarritz also included a wide chrome strip perfectly placed across the roof and then sweeping down the tops of the doors on down to the end of the front fenders. Tufted leather or velour interiors were much more plush than the non-Biarritz Eldorado. Padded landau vinyl roofs were standard on the Biarritz as well.

 

    The demand for this body amongst collectors has never been higher. Cadillac aficionados are snapping the best examples up for their collections. Most prefer to own the last year of a body style and 1985 was the very last year for this incredible body style and from a design standpoint was GM at it's finest hour. These Eldorados were the last of a classic style era which will never be produced again.

 

This immaculate example is finished in a very classic color combination of Cotilian White with Carmine Red leather interior. Hard loaded with the astro-roof, memory seats, auto-dimming lights, twilight sentinel, extremely rare factory alloy touring wheels and the list goes on.

 

The essence of "personal luxury" this Biarritz drives like a dream.

I have had the privilege of owning quite a few of these Eldorados in my 20+ years of Cadillac collecting, and this particular example is hands down in the best condition of them all. This particular Eldorado was a one-owner car and has always been collector owned and garage kept.  With only 32k miles, this Cadillac needs no excuses and stands well to be a very lucrative long term investment. The best resale colors for these are white, red, blue and black.

This Cadillac has been professionally detailed and could be put directly into a car show as it sits.

The bumper rub strips are like new with no scrapes.

All lenses are clear and free of cracks.

Very rare factory touring wheels. There is an extra touring wheel in the trunk mounted on a matching Michelin tire.

 This Cadillac was ordered with a generous list of options, with a sticker price of almost $29k whereas a base Eldorado stickered for $21,319. Some of these options include; Touring wheels($429), Memory Drivers Seat($225), Leather Seating Area($680), Twilight Sentinel($85), Guidematic Head lamp Control($128), Astro Roof($1,225) Power Passenger seat recliner w/six-way power seat($380),  Electric Remote-control Outside Mirrors($101), Symphony Sound AM/FM Cassette ($299), Illuminated Vanity Mirrors Driver and Passenger($140), Illuminated Entry System($80), Rear Window Defogger including Heated Outside Mirrors($220), and the list goes on. 

 

Factory paint all the way around is very glossy. No fading anywhere on this car.

  Drivers side rocker panel,, flawless.

Class at every angle.

  No pitting on any of the chrome.

.

 

 

 Tail light lenses are clear and as new.

Not a single door ding on this car. none.

Proper factory stance.

 Chrome rocker panels are like the rest of the car,,,gorgeous.

Standard of Excellence

Perfect vinyl landau top.

Stainless steel roof

 

Door jambs and hinge area are free of any rust or corrosion all the way around.

This Biarritz is so fresh. Door panels are plump and free of cracks.

Rare Drivers memory seat

The leather in this car is amazing.

Clean rust free hinges

I would hop in this car and drive it anywhere.

This Cadillac has all of it's original front and rear floor mats including the trunk mat.

Time capsule.

Drivers seat leather perfection.

 

You can almost sum up a car's history just from the condition of the drivers seat..

32k miles. Perfect carfax on this Eldorado.

This is the icing on the cake to not only have the ultra rare touring wheels but to also have a perfect extra in the trunk!

Above is from the factory brochure showing the two wheel choices. Wire wheel hubcaps or the more expensive alluminum Touring Wheel. The real wire wheels you see on some eldorados are not factory original equipment. They were dealer added. White walls were also made smaller for 1985 whereas the 84 and older had 1.5 inch wide white wall tires.

This car runs very smooth and shifts excellent. Such a pleasure to drive.

 

 

 

Bid with confidence, win with high expectations!

Cadillac CT6 beefs up with 400-hp twin-turbo V6

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Cadillac'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. Related Video: Cadillac Next-Gen V-6 Engines Led by 3.0L Twin Turbo Segment-leading power, efficiency in world's most advanced six-cylinder DETROIT – Cadillac today announced a new generation of V-6 engines, led by an exclusive Twin Turbo V-6 that will be one of the industry's most advanced six-cylinder gasoline engines. It leverages the latest technology to balance efficiency, performance and refinement in the upcoming, top-of-the-range CT6 luxury performance sedan. The all-new Cadillac 3.0L Twin Turbo is designed to achieve new thresholds of refinement and specific output for the brand's new prestige luxury sedan, which makes its world premiere March 31, at the New York International Auto Show. Production begins late this year at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant.

North American Car, Truck and SUV of the Year finalists revealed

Thu, Nov 17 2022

The finalists for the 2023 North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year Awards were announced Thursday at the L.A. Auto Show. — The Acura Integra, Genesis Electrified G80 and Nissan Z made the cut in the car category. — The Ford F-150 Lightning, Chevy Silverado ZR2 and Lordstown Endurance advanced in trucks. — And the Cadillac Lyriq, Genesis GV60 and Kia EV6 advanced among utilities.  The winners will be announced Jan. 11 in Detroit.  The finalists underscored the industryÂ’s shift to electric vehicles, as all three utilities and two of the three trucks are EVs. The finalists were culled from a list of 26 semifinalists made up of three trucks, 10 cars and 16 utility vehicles that are new this year.  Notables that missed the cut include the Mercedes EQE, Subaru WRX and Toyota GR Corolla in cars; while the Honda CR-V, Kia Sportage and Rivian R1S were among the utes that did not advance. The three trucks are the only ones eligible this year and have advanced through the voting.  50 jurors who work for media outlets across North America vote three times over the course of the year to whittle down the field, which was originally 47 vehicles. Jurors also test the semifinalists at an October group event in Ann Arbor, Mich. The Honda Civic (car), Ford Maverick (truck) and Ford Bronco (utility vehicle) were the 2022 winners.
