Vehicle Description
This 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Commemorative Edition is a low-mileage,
well-preserved special luxury machine. After all, the elegance of
the personal coupe is only heightened by a well-coordinated
two-tone inside and out. Part of it was exclusive to this limited
run, and some is also some great custom additions. So this is a
classic that offers luxury and extra exclusivity.
This was the final year for the tenth-generation Eldorado, and
Cadillac celebrated with the limited edition Commemorative Edition.
There was a good bit to celebrate here, because this car had
accomplished holding up Cadillac's position of a favorite for
style, luxury, and power. After all, this Eldorado was smaller than
its predecessor, so it could fit in the modern world, but it was
never compact. This Caddy owned the road with its long hood, crisp
lines, and elegant details. That tradition continues on this
example, because it has averaged less than 1,400 miles annually.
The Cotillion White is likely the factory application, and it has
the gloss of a car that was only used for special occasions.
Commemorative Edition cars were quite special with special badging,
gold accenting, and an artful blue and gold pinstripe that
highlights the best curves of this Caddy. While that already make
this quite distinctive, this one is exceptional because there is
the addition of the navy blue lower section to give this a classic
two-tone appearance. And we know you immediately spotted the
upgraded continental kit on the rear.
The custom white and navy exterior is a particularly pleasing
upgrade, because the Commemorative Edition cars had an exclusive
blue and white interior. So this example really delivers a terrific
uniform total package inside and out. Low mileage means little seat
time, and so you really get to show off this special leather with
pride. Carpeting was even wrapped in plastic to help aid the
preservation of this coupe. But you'll love this for more than just
it's history. Cadillac built these as true personal luxury
machines. Fold-down armrests in both rows means individual space
for everyone, and the front seats independently power adjust. You
have all the best features, like power windows, power locks,
electric rear defrost, the factory AM/FM/cassette stereo, and
automatic climate control now blowing cold with R134a air
conditioning. The steering wheel has the special Commemorative
Edition badging, and beyond that, the digital dash is a marvel of
its time.
Under the hood is a very stock and tidy presentation of the
numbers-matching motor. Cadillac's 4.1-liter V8 utilized
lightweight aluminum construction and fuel injection to give it the
kind of brisk acceleration that keeps this coupe worthy of its
Eldorado heritage. 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. Power steering, cruise control, and
four-wheel power disc brakes make it easy to enjoy near or far. And
while the Eldorado continues Cadillac's tradition of a plush ride,
the fully-independent suspension delivers it with added grace.
Complete with the owner's manual, there are less than 2,500
Commemorative Edition Eldorados believed to have been produced. How
many do you think are left that look this good and have personal
touches? So if you love true distinction, call today!
