Cadillac’s Eldorado model was introduced in 1952 as the brand’s entrant into the personal luxury car segment. Twelve generations were produced during a fifty-year production run that ended in 2002. Whilst the Eldorado was a rear-wheel-drive vehicle from inception, 1967 was a watershed year that saw drive sent to the front wheels, a trait that stayed all the way until the end. Named after the Spanish words for ‘the gilded one, here’s a 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible from the tenth generation up for sale. It’s a first-owner car that’s got just 2,500 miles on it, making this Florida-based, garage-kept car not only a great classic but a savvy future investment too. Receipts for all work done on it are provided with the sale.
Whilst the tenth generation of the Eldorado was a rebadged Buick Riviera / Oldsmobile Toronado, this didn’t stop it from setting a sales record in 1984 of 77,806 units, which amounted to over a quarter of Cadillac sales that year. This 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible wears a clean white paint job that’s reportedly in good shape, and sports a matching white convertible top, with convertible top boot included in the sale. It’s got a set of lovely wire-spoke wheels to match the Grand Touring ethos, and the spare wheel is mounted at the rear, Continental-style. All brightwork looks to be present and correct in good condition as well. The interior is also white with lashings of wood trim and offers seating for four occupants on plush upholstered leather seats. Reportedly in good shape, the original fittings appear to be present, including the power windows, electronic gauge cluster, and electronic climate control. A Sony radio/CD head unit from a slightly later era constitutes the musical options on offer.
The tenth generation Eldorado came with a choice of V6 and V8 engines that ranged from 4.1L to 6.0L. 1982 saw the introduction of a new 4.1L “High Technology” V8 which is what this 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible is endowed with. This engine put out 125hp to the front wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission with electronic overdrive, enabling a top speed of 106mph when new. Engine tune-up work has reportedly been recently conducted on this car.

The Cadillac has long stood as a beacon of luxury and sophistication in the American automotive landscape, a tradition that persists to this day. During the 1970s, amidst the fuel crisis, the luxury car market began to evolve, shifting towards vehicles that prioritized fuel efficiency. However, Cadillac remained true to its roots, continuing to produce vehicles that epitomized luxury, despite the growing prevalence of smaller, more fuel-efficient cars from Japanese manufacturers. A prime example of Cadillac's dedication to luxury during this era is the 1972 Cadillac Eldorado. This particular Eldorado is not just any classic Cadillac; it is reputed to have been owned by the legendary wrestler and actor Count Billy Varga and boasts a well-documented history with 32,000 miles on the odometer.
Established in 1902, Cadillac is one of the world's oldest and most respected automobile manufacturers. The Cadillac Eldorado, known for its long, smooth cruising capabilities and colossal Detroit iron, stood out as a trendsetter in the luxury automotive landscape. This 1977 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible, with only 34,000 miles on the odometer, represents a classic example in exceptional condition.
The Cadillac Eldorado, a nameplate that graced the automotive landscape from 1952 to 2002 across twelve generations, held a special place as Cadillac's premier personal luxury car. In 1973, the ninth-generation Eldorado was chosen to lead the prestigious Indianapolis 500, a momentous honor. To commemorate this achievement, a mere 556 units were produced, and we are delighted to offer one for sale: the 1973 Cadillac Eldorado Indianapolis Pace Car, boasting a mere 9,500 miles on its illustrious journey. Impressively, this vehicle is an all-original specimen, having been in the possession of just two discerning owners.
Cadillac is considered one of the first automotive brands in the world. Founded in 1902 by the founder of Motor City – Detroit, Antoine de la Mothe, Cadillac, whose coat of arms is used as the brand's crest. From its inception, Cadillac's main focus has been on luxury builds, and this continued when General Motors took over the brand in 1909. One of Cadillac's memorable models is the Cadillac Fleetwood, which has its roots all the way back to 1916; while the Fleetwood is currently discontinued, it is still a much sought-after vehicle. The Fleetwood's status as a premier luxury vehicle made it aptly suitable for a myriad of uses. Take this 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood that has undergone a custom funeral car conversion custom built by The S & S Coach Company to give loved ones a last ride in luxury. The conversion has been done with excellent workmanship and is host to the original engine with 75,000 miles on the odometer.
The Cadillac Seville was Caddy's stab at the personal luxury car segment, and they took it to new levels altogether. Debuting for the 1976 model year, you could buy an Seville all the way up to 2004. This 1976 Cadillac Seville Bicentennial Edition is from the first generation and was made to celebrate America's 200th Birthday. Up for sale with 70,300 miles on the clock, it's a great symbol of Americana for you to purchase and drive, as well as a savvy investment.
Cadillac is considered the luxury arm of General Motors, and for good reason. This American brand is renowned for making land yachts to eat up the endless highways sprawling throughout the states. The Cadillac CTS-V sedan was born with the introduction of the high-performance V-Series sub-brand in 2004, which was an attempt to create a luxury sports sedan to compete with the BMW M5 and the C63 AMG. This makes the year 2019 its 15th anniversary, and Cadillac released the Pedestal Edition, which is limited to 300 units. This gorgeous example of the 2019 Cadillac CTS-V Pedestal Edition holds only 24,900 miles on the odometer and is available for sale in Florida.
