1985 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe Original Saddle Tan Firemist Exterior with Matching Vinyl Roof and Light Tan Leather Interior 4.1L V8 and 4-Speed Automatic Transmission Excellent 100% Original Condition with Only 37,489 Original Miles This 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe is a superb 100% original example of the final year of the final generation of traditional Eldorados; the model was dramatically downsized and downgraded the next year. We purchased the car from Daniel Schmitt & Co. of St. Louis, who bought it from its original owner in Palm Springs, California (see original listing here). Since then it has been garage kept and driven locally in good weather only. With only 37,489 original miles it has been driven less than 1,500 miles a year, and its condition reflects its exceptionally low mileage. It is finished in original Saddle Tan Firemist paint with matching vinyl roof and a light tan leather interior. Inside and out, it presents exceptionally well for its age with no major cosmetic flaws. The paint is still shiny, the leather trim still soft and supple. There is no rust or body damage. As befits one of the premier American luxury cars of its era, it is fitted with a high level of equipment including 4.1L V8 engine, 4-speed automatic transmission, leather upholstery, wire wheel covers, automatic climate control, power windows, power door locks, power driver's seat and more. The car has just had the oil changed, transmission fluid flushed and the rear self-leveling air suspension repaired. The car will also have a new battery installed before being delivered to its new owner. The only significant mechanical flaw of which we are aware of is that the air conditioner needs a recharge as it no longer blows cold. This is an excellent opportunity to buy one of the best examples you will find of this generation of Eldorado. Please remember that while this car is in excellent condition, it is still a used car, and therefore has wear consistent with its age and (very low) mileage. We believe this listing is a fair and accurate representation of the car and its condition, to the best of our knowledge. However, because of its age, it is being sold as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Please feel free to ask us any questions you may have and we will be happy to answer them to the best of our ability. The car is located in Islip, Long Island, NY. The buyer is welcome to collect the car in person, or it can be shipped to them. If the buyer chooses to have the car shipped, the buyer will be responsible for all shipping charges and for making all shipping arrangements. The winning bidder will be required to pay a deposit of $1,000.00 via PayPal within 48 hours of the close of the auction. Full payment via cashier's check is required within 7 days of the close of the auction. Payment may also be in cash at the time of pick-up if the buyer chooses to pick the car up in person. If the buyer chooses to have the car shipped, we will not ship the car until we have received full payment. Please note that this car is for sale to US and Canadian buyers only. Thank you and good luck!

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln
Sat, 26 Jul 2014
Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
Cadillac can't keep up with Escalade demand, can't move its sedans
Wed, Feb 11 2015No matter how much Cadillac revitalizes its lineup and its image, it seems that all consumers want is the Escalade. In fact, Automotive News reports that General Motors can't keep up with demand for the fullsize luxury SUV, despite sticker prices that start at over $70,000 and approach six figures at the top end of the spectrum. Contrast that with sedans like the ATS and CTS, which are far cheaper but which Cadillac hasn't been able to move fast enough to keep up with production, prompting both the manufacturer and dealers to offer substantial incentives to keep them from piling up. Cadillac had been resisting a price cut of the ATS or CTS, lest it hurt resale values – itself a factor that could explain consumers' reluctance to buy them in the first place – but been offering subsidized leases, discounted financing, rebates and cheaper options. Combined with incentives from individual dealers, according to AN, buyers can be looking at five-figure discounts on buying a new Cadillac sedan. And now, finally, it seems the CTS will indeed get a little bit off its bottom line. Yet GM has been producing the ATS and CTS at rates that their sales can't keep up with. The automaker was forced to idle the plant in Lansing, MI, where it assembles the ATS and CTS for six weeks starting this past December. And since it reopened late in January, it's been reduced to a single shift as dealers try to move the metal they've already got. Meanwhile the plant in Arlington, TX, that produces the Escalade and its Chevy and GMC siblings has been running on overtime, with three shifts throughout the week and even into the weekend to keep up with demand. Profitable as it's been for Cadillac and GM, though, the Escalade does not represent the future of where it wants to take the brand - separating the Escalade as almost a brand unto itself that's been left out of the company's new naming scheme. If only it could make its sedans as successful as its fullsize SUVs, it'll be all set.
Cadillac expects major growth in China
Thu, 25 Sep 2014The US sales issues facing Cadillac are not being paralleled in the People's Republic of China, as a new report from Automotive News indicates the US luxury maker should see its sales increase by as much as 40 percent.
The report cites Cadillac's own forecasts, which put its 2014 sales in the PRC at 70,000 units after cresting 45,000 vehicles at the end of August. Provided the sales pace holds true through 2015, the brand would hit its new 100,000-unit sales goal, AN reports.
"We're very optimistic about the luxury market, we believe that the luxury market by 2016 here will become the largest luxury market in the world, surpassing even the size of luxury in Europe," GM China President Matthew Tsien told AN. "With [Cadillac president] Johan [de Nysschen], we have somebody that really is an executive that understands luxury, but he also is very, very keen on understanding what do we need here in China for Cadillac to be successful."
