Occasionally I see one for sale. They seem to sell higher than 4 door coupes. Anthony from Specialty Motor cars has a few he has collected and seen in his video's. One he recently got was an early 80's with blue velour interior.
@@junali94 crime against humanity especially on 50s cars. What happens when they gotta sell them who tf gonna aonce original car that’s been decked out with bullshit
Its mind blowing that a 1985 Chevy Caprice had a 165 HP 305 V8 but the best and most powerful V8 in any Cadillac in these years was a 135 HP HT 4100. And the Caprice was around 13K new versus well over 20 for the Deville/Fleetwood!
1985 I was 16 years old just got my drivers license and my parents bought me a new Cadillac Eldorado convertible I was so excited an happy with that car I still own today I knew the Eldorado was going to be totally redesigned for 86 an I barely drove my Cadillac 38 years later I have only 48 thousand miles on my convertible
Loved my 85 Eldorado Coupe in Jade Grey, white leather interior and white cabriolet top. Wish I still had it. Best design of all the Eldorados, along with the Original Seville.
My father in law had a special edition eldorado from Bramen Cadilliac in Florida , it was one of only 5 made with the colors of Gucci. His was silver with gold accents of Gucci emblems. The landau top was Gucci signature material, as was the interior seating. Very nice.
AND NOW we have hard riding, hard seating, and low profile tires that blow out on potholes......screw them, give me one of these, no other car rode like a Cadillac
Compared to today's vehicles where you sit in grey blob with an Ipad stuck on the dash. I knew two gals with the red Eldo convertible back in the day. It was a head turner going down the road because everyone knew it was, like, $36K to buy one.

I DROVE IT ONCE AND IT WAS LIKE DRIVING A PINTO.. THANKS....
I once had a 1989 Brougham. It always drove me nuts that there was a blank panel just to the right of the climate control panel. It makes sense that the '89's carburetor 307 Olds would not have the ability to feed the fuel data panel, but I wonder if the optional diesel in 1985 also put a blank in the same spot? I would think so.
Before those trip computers where put in those cars in 1981, that spot on the 1977 - 1980 rear wheel drive Cadillacs was for the rear window defog switch and/or the power antennae shut off switch.
@@andrewcolsen Cool. My memory is fuzzy, but I think the rear defrost was moved to the climate control, and by the time of the trip computer maybe it didn’t matter if the radio antenna was controlled only by the radio.
@josephvetter7085: Yup the diesel and V6 models had a blank panel there. It was supposed to be a sensor for an optional remote control for the climate control and radio but I've never seen one with that feature. Hindsight 20/20 they should've put a digital compass there.
I had da beautiful Coupe. Fully equipped, Astroroof, limited slip, AWESOME MASTERPIECE. But, dat 4.1 dissatisfied for such luxury. Wen I had 6ppl in it lord was it slow from stand still trying to reach highway nominal speeds. But, it was beautiful, I had da Caddy tru spokes & VOGUE tyres. White exterior, red leather interior.
