Driving the Last Cadillac Eldorado, with a $25K Convertible Conversion and Vogue Tires SOLD

SOLD The twelfth generation Cadillac Eldorado would be the last - a sad testament to a bygone era. Though I'm predisposed to dislike this generation of front drive Cadillacs, I do have to admit that the Eldorado has been a front driver since about 1967 or so, which gives them the claim of historical roots. Truthfully, though, it would have been a front driver nomatter what. The Eldo, so named in a contest by a young secretary at GM in the early 50s, morphed from a very expensive two and foor door model to a very expensive two door model. Sometime called "the doctor's car," it maintained an elevated position in the Cadillac lineup, often with the most power and equipment on offer. This final generation was no different, getting virtually all of Cadillac's technological goodies, a lot of real wood and bling, and a comparably high price tag. While it's enemy, the Lincoln Mark VIII, and it's cousin, The Buick Riviera, all fell victim to the chopping block, the Eldorado hung on for a few more years before finally being killed in 2002. What a shame. Full review and test drive by Bill of this 2001 Eldorado, complete with a very expensive and professional convertible conversion by Coach Builders Limited - in 2001, add $25K to the $45K sticker on the car, and it tells you something about the well heeled riverboat gamblers who bought these cars. It is SOLD
