1989 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz

1989 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz For consignment, a 1989 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz with a title verified 24,055 actual miles. Heres a well preserved personal luxury coupe with a beautiful blue interior. Of the 20,633 Eldorados sold in 1989, just 7,174 of them were Biarritz models in the second model year sporting a 4.5 liter V8. Exterior An overall shorter design was introduced in 1986, and although only 16 inches shorter than previous models, the configuration with shorter overhangs and narrower C-pillars created a car that exaggerated its reduction. This one is covered in white and has the telltale cabriolet treatment that is delineated by brushed nickel trim that also frames the rear quarter window. Up front, composite headlights, white bumper covers and clear lensed marker lights enhance the frosty profile while the chrome crowned eggcrate grille keeps things Caddy . A birds eye view shows a sunroof and doors that are contoured into the roofline and the textured vinyl end thats in great shape. Vertical tail lights handsomely bookmark the decklid which compared to the rounded front, maintains Cadillacs angular characteristics. Overall, the paint and trim is in excellent shape with imperfections noted as various scratches and edge wear, flex cracking on the rocker panel, a small crack in the plastic door guard, and some dings on the wire wheel covers. Interior Blue vinyl molded door panels are clean and elegant with metal toggles to control a variety of functions and a blue carpeted kick panel that takes in a speaker on each door. Inviting blue leather bucket seats with regal button tufted padding occupies the front. Theres some minor compression and patina wrinkling on the drivers seat but the rest, including the rear bench, are further enhanced with opera style lights on the inner C-pillars. In the cockpit, a wood accented steering wheel, also blue, presents the horn and cruise control buttons on the horizontal spoke while a leather wrapped rim provides a good grip. Wood frames the digital dash as well with a series of idiot light and levered switches flanking the main screen, all in great shape. A Sanyo AM/FM/Cassette player has been added while the center stack is reserved for the A/C panel and a Driver Information Center that reports everything from time and temp to fuel consumption data. Plush blue carpet covers the floor with toes deep abundance and along with the headliner, presents in very nice condition. We take a break from the solid blue interior to note the trunk that is finished in gray flannel panels. Drivetrain Under the hood, a transverse mounted and driver quality 4.5 liter V8 rated at 155 horsepower, fuel injected and tied to a 4T60 4-speed automatic transmission keeping the spin up front with 2.97 gears. This luxury cruiser is afforded power disc brakes front and rear. Undercarriage About what you would expect from a 24,000 mile car, very clean underneath with minimal surface rust and patina and no sign of errant fluids. As an FWD car, much of the underside is composed of flat panels, very clean, with a tunnel running down middle which houses the single exhaust which then snakes to the right, enters a stock style muffler, then exits via a steel pipe behind the rear bumper. Both front and rear possess independent suspension with coil springs. Drive-Ability We take a seat in this little lap of luxury and turn the key for this quick starter with the smooth idle, then shift into Drive and send it to the test loop where the car tracks straight, has plenty of power underfoot, and with the shorter wheelbase, handles better than the land yacht Eldos of yesteryear! With its low miles, every bell and whistle chimes on cue and functions properly. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. When Cadillac reduced the size of the Eldorado, devotees scoffed, but the new configuration tried to appeal to a broader audience. As a result, however, sales were not great, and our car represents a rare opportunity for one that wasnt driven that much and has many comfortable miles ahead. As people become more nostalgic about the 80s the further we get from them, a car like this would evoke smiles and memories if parked in a car show and the tufted leather seats are already classic! 1G6EL1152KU622000 1-USA G-General Motors 6-Cadillac EL-Eldorado 1-2 Door Hardtop 1-Manual Belts 5-4.5L V8 155 hp 2-Check Digit K-1989 U-Hamtramck, MI Assy Plant 622000-Sequential Unit Number Classic Auto Mall is home to more than 1,000 classic and collectible vehicles for sale via consignment in a climate controlled 336,000-square foot showroom (thats more than 8 acres!).
