I Bought a Cheap 1976 Eldorado, and It's Way Better than Any New Cadillac

Finally, someone who understands the wonderfulness of a land-yaught!

To be fair European roads are so tight and windy that the sports feel is almost essential to avoid accidents. I do not understand why Americans felt the need to copy us and get rid of their huge cars, most of your roads are just miles of straight lines.

[MrGman]

you are so right. cadillac no longer makes cadillac's they are totally lost, and have been for a long time

Car Wizard Astral Prediction says....He is saving up for a Duesenberg. Duesenberg....

[BernonCars]

The most RWD looking FWD vehicle I’ve ever seen. Lol

I work at a Cadillac dealer and we have a 76 Eldorado Convertible BiCentenial Edition. The crazy thing is that it only has 128 miles. Yes. 128 miles on a 43 year old car. Inanity.

Hey marge that new guy has got some sort of tank in his driveway and he’s laying on the ground next to it!

8.2 liter engine making only 190 hp, slow, doesn't handle, difficult to park, gets 9 mpg. But I still want one!! pity I live in the UK where that's almost impossible LOL.

[williamlamdin]

I drive a 76 Eldo semi-regularly in Montana winters. Good snow tires on the front make this thing a tank. The 9mpg is extremely optimistic btw

Replica plastics in Alabama sells the quarter panel extensions and bumper fillers. Excellent quality and pricing.

Buying cars in December only to wait months to reveal after your New Years resolution so you don't technically "break the resolution", wrapping your old cars so they feel new...
Tyler, I dont know if you're a desperate addict trying to get his fix, or a mad genius...either way we love and support you

Nice, I bet the neighbors are asking "Who the h@!# just moved in?"

[zollotech]

The Cadillac Sixteen and Elmiraj would have been amazing to see come to production...sad that it seems we will never see either of them.

Thank you @Hoovies Garage for understanding luxury. 1989 Cadillac Brougham owner here.

I so much agree on the journalism pushing the car industry into forced sportiness. And I think consumers reaction is suv. Most of us find sporty cars uncomfortable and inconvenient. The only cars left who are not sport cars are SUV’s, but automotive journalist are dead set on ruining that as well. Sport package for my Jeep? NO!

Need air in your front passenger tire hoovie.

Cadillac needs to get back to their luxury car roots, and stop trying to make everything sporty.

[sportytone]

I'd be curious to see how the old 500 would do with a modern throttle body fuel injection system like the Holley Sniper EFI .

[averagehummer]

What I think is funny is that James May took a CTs-v on the American muscle car road trip and complained about it not being what a Cadillac should be.

Super comfortable. Massive displacement. 0-60 in 15 minutes. So 70s. I hate it. I love it.
