Top-of-the-line Cadillacs have a special appeal, and this 1984 Cadillac Eldorado delivers everything you want in personal luxury, including a fuel-injected V8 and a luxury A/C interior, without the top-of-the-line price tag.
Take a look at that angular body. These are the iconic lines of the last of the great cruising Cadillacs. When Caddy shut the books on this generation, the Eldorado shrank to nearly compact car proportions and lost many of Cadillac's distinguished features. These coupes have just the right amount of chrome that cascades off the hallmark grille, then naturally flows to the front bumpers, spreads to the lower valances, and pools on the rear bumper. And you might have noticed that this is an extra-special limited edition car. The Patriot II custom lives up to its name with the white paint complemented by full-length red and blue pinstripes that highlight to sporty kick-up in the profile. While we know this is the correct appearance for this classic, there has been the correct level of care that we even suspect this to be the original paint application. And we know you love the great custom touches like the blue half landau roof and matching Continental kit.
All that blue is not just bold complement to the exterior paint, but also it's a nice introduction to the interior color. Everybody has their own individual space separated by an armrest, and the front wheel drive layout means a flat floor, where each person has limo-worthy legroom. And the wood trim only enhances the premium atmosphere. Everything you'd expect from Cadillac's flagship model comes in this coupe, including the automatic climate control with its air conditioning still blowing cold, power windows, power locks, cruise control, tilt wheel, and a trip computer. Even the original AM/FM/cassette premium sound system is intact. There are so many adapters out there for modern music players that we think it would be a shame to spoil this unique atmosphere by replacing this very original radio. The driver gets a few nifty digital readouts surrounding the classic extra-wide speedometer. This includes the driver information center, which was quite cutting edge because the computer was constantly in contact with Cadillac's "High Technology" engine.
Cadillac's 4.1-liter V8 was cutting edge for its time. It utilized lightweight aluminum construction and fuel injection to give it the kind of brisk acceleration that keeps this coupe worthy of its Eldorado heritage. And in a car that has looks so original so far, you'll be happy to know this is the original motor, too. Plus, as you look at the undercarriage photos, it has the unmistakably clean presentation that affirms this coupe's careful life. These cars are designed for all-day comfort even on the highway, and so the motor is mated to a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. The feeling on the road is that incomparable Cadillac cloud, thanks to an all-independent suspension with air shocks out back. Four-wheel disc brakes were also standard equipment on the Eldorado, so it has better capabilities than you'd expect in a coupe with such a cushy ride.
These Eldorados are becoming sought-after as they cross the threshold into true classic car territory. This one has big V8 power, a stellar interior, and the correct paperwork, such as the owner's manual and maintenance records. It's the ultimate affordable collector's Caddy, and it can be yours if you call now!
