My Dad bought me a '61 CAdillac convertible for me when I was a sophomore in college in 1965.   I never had a desire to own another brand of car ever since!  Happy day,  James
James, there is something special about driving around in a convertible caddy.  I haven't felt this way in any other car.  It is a joyful experience.

1976 Eldorado Convertible

Brian,

  It''s safe to say that owning a Cadillac convertible is a transgenerational affliction.  Since the mid 60's, I've owned many Cadillac convertibles, and now, as a "boomer" / geezer who's seventy-five years old, I'm driving an "Infared" XLR-- in spite of logic, and yes, everytime I drive that car and recall all the other Cadillacs I've owned, it's brightened my day. YOur generation Eldorado, when brought up to specs, is simply an incredible ride--- Similar to sitting in a posh movie theatre and watching a film--- "road feel,"  be damned!   Happy day, James
