Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham - Clinton-era style and luxury - A real dignitary's car, fit for a flag on the fender
in Black/Black/Black
Two owners
Purchased new by the Lyric Opera of Chicago. Driven by General Director Ardis Krainik and chauffeured opera luminaries to Chicago’s historic Civic Opera Building including "Samuel Ramey, Catherine Malfitano, and Placido Domingo, but not Pavarotti.” (Ms Krainik famously fired Pavarotti after one too many last-minute cancellations.)
Present owner:
Electric pre-start oil pump installed when purchased from Lyric Opera at 20k miles. Garaged in Fort Collins CO and Washington DC area. Maintained by GM dealerships. 223,000 total fair weather miles - 85% interstate driving. Never used as a daily commuter.
I take this magic carpet for a 25 mile spin about every 45 days in warm months. Starts in a snap, accelerates impressively, and glides on the interstate. No smoke, ever, thanks to the auxiliary pre-start oil pressurization/circulation. Mobil1 oil. KN air filter. A head turner and stop-light thumbs-up getter every ride. A UPS driver even followed me into a parking lot just to shake his head, grin and say "Mmm mm mm! Wow!"
