This 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible is the ultimate classic car and would make the perfect addition to any antique car collection. The car has been carefully restored to its original condition and is absolutely stunning. Only 61,177 miles. Feel free to ask questions. 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible Long and rightly advertised as the “Standard of the World,” GM’s Cadillac Division finally reached the summit of America’s fine car market during 1947, when it convincingly outsold its old archrival Packard by nearly 11,000 units. Without doubt, Cadillac’s postwar success was based on equal parts of advanced engineering, embodied by Cadillac’s groundbreaking overhead-valve V-8 engine, and the renowned stylistic genius of famed GM design Chief Harley Earl. Debuting for 1948 and inspired by Earl’s appreciation of the sleek and futuristic Lockheed P-38 Lightning fighter aircraft of WW II fame, Cadillac’s signature tailfins debuted for 1948 and remained a design hallmark of GM’s luxury division for over 15 years. Best-known for its sleek, cutting-edge styling based on Cadillac's El Dorado Golden Anniversary concept car that wowed the crowds at GM’s Motorama shows during 1952, the Series 62-based Eldorado Convertible reached series-production status in 1953. That year, the Eldorado quickly gained lasting fame for transporting U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower to his inauguration ceremonies. For 1956, the Seville two-door hardtop joined the Eldorado series, while the glamorous convertible was named the Biarritz, after the luxurious French seaside town on the Bay of Biscay. In 1957, the Brougham four-door hardtop appeared but then, as now, the Biarritz remained Cadillac’s undisputed image leader. With its softer lines and lower overall stance, the redesigned 1957 Eldorado remains a collector favorite today, with its elegant proportions, downward-sloping rear deck, and restrained tailfins. A tuned 365 cubic-inch V-8 with a pair of Carter four-barrel carburetors delivered a stout 325-horsepower output, with GM’s famed Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission standard. Just 1,800 examples of the Eldorado Biarritz were manufactured for 1957, priced from a commanding $7,286 to match its sheer presence. This highly attractive example is distinctively finished in “triple green” and continues to benefit very nicely from an older restoration. Equipped with most of the expected amenities for the Eldorado Biarritz, it will certainly provide an outstanding experience and draw admiration as the top GM model available for 1957 – in the most desirable open-air form to boot |

"The objective for this upcoming model is to lift the Cadillac range by entering the elite class of top-level luxury cars." - Johan de Nysschen

2014 Cadillac CTS images leak out yet again
Mon, 25 Mar 2013It seems the 2014 Cadillac CTS just doesn't want to stay under wraps. For the second time in as many days, Caddy's next sedan is showing a bit more sheetmetal than the automaker would like before it is officially debuted tomorrow at the New York Auto Show.
This time, the leak comes from USA Today, and we've gone ahead and added them to our gallery of 2014 CTS images. As you may know, Cadillac will bestow the next CTS with an all-new twin-turbo V6 engine that will offer up an impressive 420 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque.
USA Today also mentions a new Vsport model but doesn't give any more details other than the fact that it will boast the twin-turbo engine and an eight-speed automatic transmission. Of course, all you have to do is come back to these pages for the official unveiling tomorrow afternoon for all the sordid details. In the meantime, check out the images above.
2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe prepares to fight BMW 4 Series
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Cadillac introduced its new ATS Coupe at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show today, bringing customers an alternative to the growing range of sport luxury coupes typified by the BMW 4 Series, Audi A5 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe.
The ATS Coupe, as a slightly more premium offering, ditches the wheezy 2.5-liter engine found in the basic ATS Sedan, but retains the four-door's 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder and 3.6-liter V6. That four-pot turbo benefits from a fettling that has increased torque from 260 pound-feet to 295, although its peak is only available from 3,000 rpm to 4,600 rpm, unlike in the sedan, where peak twist arrives at just 1,700 rpm and sticks around until 5,500 rpm.
Power can be channeled to either the rear or all four wheels by the owner's choice of a Tremec six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. According to Cadillac, the new Coupe can get to 60 in 5.6 seconds when fitted with the 2.0-liter turbo.
