driver quality as it is and obviously not perfect. Great Colors and
Equipment! Affordably priced. 1978 Eldorado Biarritz... Ever since
the beginning of the automobile, people have admired the big cars
with lots of shiny chrome outside and luxury touches inside. By the
fifties, owning a Cadillac was a universally accepted symbol of
success and stature. If that Cadillac happened to be an Eldorado,
that put one in a class separate and above that of even other
Cadillac owners. Over the years, the Eldorado changed. It started
out as an exclusive convertible in 1953, and by 1957 had expanded
to three models-the Biarritz Convertible, Seville Hardtop Coupe,
and Eldorado Brougham, a four door hardtop with stainless steel
roof. These cars were among the most expensive on the road,
anywhere. We can't really put our finger on it. Is it creativity?
Imagination? Inspiration? Whatever it is, these cars have it and
most new cars don't. Is it wasteful to drive such a large car given
today's interest in economizing and saving the environment? We'll
answer that with another question: Is it wasteful to go to sports
events? Concerts? Drive to the golf course? All use fuel, and none
are necessary activities. Having a classic car is a hobby, and like
all hobbies they take time, cost money, and may be a bit wasteful.
But with a classic car, you can bring it home, put it in your
garage and admire it every time you go into the garage. Golf clubs
may be great, but really, do you enjoy looking at them? Large
personal luxury cars like the Eldorado were a snapshot of a time in
America when being creative, or extravagant, or a bit daring was
OK. They represent a time when a new automobile was truly a work of
art to be admired by all. They were individual, unique. We may
never see a time like that again, but thank goodness cars like the
1978 Eldorado still exist to prove that there was once a time when
owning a grand car was possible. A time when sporty didn't mean
tiny. When flashy didn't mean huge chrome rims and skinny little
tires. There was a time when we had cars that could truly inspire
one's imagination. When getting there and back home again was a big
part of the fun. The 1978 Cadillac Eldorado has always been such a
car. You park it in the driveway, and you glance back at it before
you go in the house. You are proud to own it, even if it may seem
outdated and wasteful to those who don't take the time to
understand. It reflects a different time in America, when men and
women created rolling works of art every year, and people bought
them and drove them without giving it much thought. Even today,
some are just now beginning to see what we've lost along the way.
Cadillac Eldorado has always been the world's finest personal
luxury car! And it's doubtful that anything being made today will
ever challenge that title. Available now at our dealership Great
