Inside Trump’s ‘World’s Most Luxurious Limo’ | RIDICULOUS RIDES

A PROUD collector is the owner of one of the world’s rarest cars – a special ‘Trump Edition’ Cadillac designed to be the ‘world’s most luxurious limo’. In 1987 Cadillac and Donald Trump partnered on the idea of offering a "Trump Edition" limousine. The aim was to produce the world's most luxurious limo with specialists Dillinger Coachwork as the chosen coach-builder. Their plan was to build 50 examples each of two slightly different models: The Trump Golden Series and the Trump Executive Series. Both featured an electronic bar, three phones, TV and VCR, raised roof for extra headroom, plus a paper shredder and fax machine, all topped off with an iconic ‘Cadillac Trump’ crest. Although the project was scrapped Trump bought both cars, one for himself and the other for his father, but one model now resides in Brian Gram’s Volo Auto Museum in Illinois.

I always wanted to own a Cadillac limo from the 80s and 90s

[davidjenkins]

That was back when Cadillac built a Luxury Car. Nothing to look at with today’s modern Cadillac.

The Gold Key Series. I had the exact same Brougham in the 80's.

I'm 99% sure those headlights are NOT original. They look to be from a 1987-90 Caprice. Us fans of lowriders know those as "Euro" headlights. In the late 80's GM re-vamped a lot of their Mid and Full Sized RWD cars with one peice composite headlamps. They could be fond on 87 Cutlasses, 87-90 Caprices and the 87 Monte Carlo LS "Luxury Sport" they were known as "Euro Clips" amongst the lowrider community. Cadillac received the Euro style composite headlamps on this body style in the 1990-92 RWD Brougham. This doesn't have the Brougham headlamps however. For those reason the 1990-92 Cadillac Brougham is much more popular than the 80's model. Aside from just the beautiful much more modern headlamps, it also had these gorgeous additional rocker panels. The final reason why the 90-92 Caddies are preferred is for the 5.0 and especially the 5.7 Fuel Injected V8's. Compared to that nightmare of the HT4100, it's an exponentially better powertrain. Some lowriders will take the 1980-85 Coupe Deville (and especially the rarer 2 Door Fleetwood Brougham (80-85) and swap over the 90-92 Euro Front-End, they mold the rocker Panels to work on a 2 door. They swap the interior with the D'Elegance pillow top seats and the much cooler Digital Dash found on the 90-92 4 Doors. The real purists will even swap the 90-92 Brougham Frame on their 80-85 2 Doors to have the better powertrain and ABS. Essentially creating the 90-92 Cadillac Brougham in a 2 door, which never existed. They're really cool, one of the ultimate Cadillac. It's mostly a lowrider thing. I think it's a great display of ingenuity.

3:36 is everything ok with the front right wheel?

[gordythecreator]

How much you wanna bet that "custom steering wheel" is replacing an original Gold & Woodgrain steering wheel.

[pianofry]

1:50 that's just what the "good" keys look like. Any GM key would work but you could get gold ones for a Cadillac.

[anniewilkes]

I rode in a non-stretch in the mid-80's. Everyone thought we were celebrities 😹 Ride in a limo now and people think Prom or party🫠😹

[andrewbochicchio]

I guarantee that somebody paid a lady to join them in that limousine and the lady accidentally left her brush

[jeanniebilliejean]

Neat I've never been in a limo .. neat.

[biggreentruck]

I would love a Trump Series limo. Old school executive limousines are awesome. I particularly like the wood grain partition, and the pullout table top.

All the limousines, today, seem to have cheapazz interiors, with excessive disco lighting. That's fine, I guess, for kids. But, this Trump car is clearly designed for grownups, thus it appeals to me.

[btrdangerdan]

What if you actually send off the hair samples for DNA testing from the hair brush?

[friendlypiranha]

I can so see Donald in the back of that limo as the chauffeur turns into Southfork Ranch. 🤣🤣🤣

[kibblesanbites]

Wow this is simply just beautiful
I never would imagine Cadillac Trump so badass

[ricke]

Had an 89 Brougham deElegance and loved it! Wish I had never let it go. Actually like the car. Nice to see a car almost as BIG as the Donald's EGO! 😉 😜. Let's make Cadillacs great again!

[mattfarahsmillionmilelexus]

You should feature the AOC clown car next.

[lucygoosie]

This is exactly what i would expect a 21st century Gatsby would drive

[elijahcarr]

When you realize this is 20 years older than your £500 banger

[teresattrudicks]

Awesome he has an old HOLLYWOOD VIDEO sign above his garage! I worked there when I was 17 in 1998.

[hazbinalastor]

I can already see the sjw's going off, the "well actually" or the "why are you doing this?.."
