1966 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible 


The 1966 Cadillac Eldorado convertible, with a production run of only 2,250 vehicles makes this baby a rare gem. With over 200,000 Cadillacs sold in 1966... the 1966 Cadillac was the best ever in sales and production in the history Cadillac. The 1966 Cadillac convertible production reached its peak with 19,200 1966 Cadillac DeVille Convertibles and 2,250 1966 Eldorado convertibles produced. This is an ultra rare car. Only 2,250 1966 Cadillac Eldorado convertibles manufactured. Of which less than ten percent (200 cars) were equipped with the ultra rare bucket seats and console. Furthermore, how many were built like this car and equipped with dual power bucket seats? Additionally, this car appears to have been originally equipped with rare factory head rests.

This car has an interesting history, having been bought new by a cattle dealer in the state of Vermont, who upon his retirement sold it to a Vermont State Senator. It has been blessed to have never have been driven in inclement weather and stored indoors during the winter months. As such, it has only racked up 73,068 original miles on its odometer. This is a very original and unmolested car. It still sports its original leather interior and carpeting. Best of all, it has an uncracked dash pad. It was treated to a very high quality paint refinish in its original Aztec red using Sikkens paint a few years ago by its third owners (a pair of physicians) who owned the car for 17 years and lovingly kept it garaged and out of the rain. The black convertible top was also replaced at that time and is close to new.

This car could be enjoyed the way it is, or upgraded with very little effort. I have located the original missing stainless trim for the bottom of the rear quarters. I just drove this car on a 300 mile trip at highway speeds with no problems. I am a fussy Dentist.

Cadillac SRX likely to see next-gen built in China

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Here's some shocking news to no one: People love crossovers, including those living in China. Since introducing the Cadillac SRX there in 2009, the model's sales have gone through the roof. Now, the brand is considering moving some production of the next-generation model in China to eliminate import tariffs and make it an even bigger player in the market.
According to a recent report in The Wall Street Journal, the crossover is leading Cadillac's Chinese growth, despite its US-equivalent price of over $67,000 after the country's high import tariffs. The CUV's sales are up 23 percent there so far this year, and it's responsible for over 40 percent of the brand's sales. John Stadwick, General Motors' VP of sales, service and marketing in China, told the WSJ that GM could "very possibly" build the next-gen model there.
The SRX is Cadillac's golden goose in China, and it just keeps pushing the brand's sales forward. "It's the vehicle that took us out of being a small niche in the market," said David Caldwell, Cadillac Communications Manager, to Autoblog. Before the CUV, Caddy was selling a little over 20,000 cars a year there, but partially thanks to the crossover's success, the brand sold 50,000 vehicles last year and could reach 60,000 this year. "The SRX is the most popular Cadillac in that market," he said.

Cadillac considering more electric cars, Elmiraj business case gaining popularity

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

Cadillac's electrification isn't likely to stop at the $76,000 ELR coupe, according a report from TheDetroitBureau.com. Speaking to Cadillac's global sales boss, Bob Ferguson, a successful ELR will likely lead to a larger, even more upscale offering than the Volt-based two-door. "I could certainly see a larger vehicle, something even more luxurious," Ferguson said of a potential second, battery-powered Caddy.
That car would likely boast a more potent version of the Voltec powertrain that motivates the Volt and ELR. This next-generation system is still sometime off, though, and won't likely arrive until the second-generation Volt hits the market.
Besides hinting at future plug-in hybrids, Ferguson spoke to TDB about the improving business case for the Elmiraj Concept, shown at the Pebble Beach Concours in Monterey in August. "I'm very excited about the reception for the Elmiraj," Ferguson said. "I'd like to see it in showrooms as soon as possible," he added, before saying that a business case for the production version of the big coupe still needed to be presented to the brass. "It was made to be operationalized," Ferguson added, which is just what we want to hear when it comes to big, flashy concept cars.

Cadillac LTS flagship to bow at NY Auto Show

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

There is widespread agreement across the industry that Cadillac needs a proper, rear-drive flagship sedan that completes legitimately with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series.
Fortunately, the same view is held within the company, and just such a car - possibly dubbed LTS - is under development. According to a high-level source at Cadillac, the new four-door, which is said to incorporate design cues from the marque's celebrated Elmiraj coupe concept, will debut at the New York Auto Show next April.
If the car needs a cheerleader, surely incoming president Johan de Nysschen is just such a person. De Nysschen doesn't arrive at Cadillac until late in the month, but certainly he will want a proper flagship to do battle with his old foes at Mercedes-Benz and BMW and old friends at Audi and Infiniti.
