I've been eyeing this car for the last 4 moths, ever since I moved into the apartment. I always saw it at the front of the complex, and it is exactly the luxury car I have always wanted. A pearl-white Cadillac Eldorado.

I came home one night - and there was a for sale sign on it! $5500.00.

In a nutshell: after a little negotiation, I got it for $4800.00.

And it only has 64k miles on it!

Bluebook was 4300.00, but I have NEVER seen a car this clean, or well taken car of. After I bought it I did a search on Autotrader.com for 1992 Caddy Eldorado's w/less than 75k in the entire US, and the lowest I found was 6500.00. It's a 2 owner car, and the most recent owner is a professional car detailer by trade.

It doesn't have the Northstar, ( ) it has a 4.9l in it, 200HP, 275tq. It's no TR, but it's sufficient for daily driving. It has a new A/C compressor, water pump, front brakes and more, most done by the local Cadillas dealer. The only things wrong with it is is needs 1 motor mount (mechanic broke it installing the new A/C compressor), someone tore up the passenger side door handle assembly trying to break in, and when they couldn't get in, the broke off the radio antenna, other than that it's PERFECT!

It has a CD player too. :D (Delco Bose Gold)

But it's all coming out for a Pioneer DEH-P77DH and all new speakers.

I never have liked those cars that much, just something about the shape of them. Congrats though, hopefully you get your money's worth from it.

Actually - it's the smallest (save the Allante) Cadillac made that year. FAR from a "yacht".
