    Is this me, or this generation of Eldorado is sorely underrated? I remember last seeing them in Midtown Madness series and that's pretty much it. Wish more modern racing games feature cars from this era.

      People like the car, they just know it's a money pit to own because '90s Northstar (it got better after 2000, and even better in the late '00s but by then the Eldorado was gone).

    Such a beautiful car! It would be even more beautiful if the owner cared to detail it. All the buttons and switchgear are caked with dirt! I don’t understand these people that give their cars to Zack for review and they are filthy. If my car was being reviewed for the world to see I would at least make sure it’s clean!

    The Coach Builder Eldorado was never considered a factory convertible. You could not order the car as a convertible from Cadillac. You could from a Cadillac dealer that dealt with Coach Builders. You could also send your car directly to them even if it was a few years old at the time. The one you reviewed is a Soft Boot car. They also started producing a hardboot version in mid 1996. From 1992-2002 they produced roughly 2200 Eldorado convertibles

      It looks like they left it out in the rain a few times with the top down - a lot of mold on the leather.

    My "luscious locks" parted ways with my scalp shortly after this beast hit the market, but I'd still love to have one...hopefully with the dreaded Northstar issues worked out by now. Bald head notwithstanding.

    Cool car. The drivers seat and steering wheel were worn but that is understandable considering the cars age. May be you can do a ride in a Cadillac XLR.

    I've always wanted one of these but I'm worried about part support for the roof. Can you still find parts to fix the roof when it inevitably fails?

    • @1524mike
      @1524mike Před měsícem

      Thank goodness I have never had any problems with the mechanics of the roof. I do need to replace some gaskets, but I’m not too worried about that. I did replace the rear window motors but that was easy. Auto zone had the motors on the shelf.
