Still had a decent engine (6.0 l V8) in 1980. 1980 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle... (craigslist.org)
Yup, last year for a Cadillac with a v8 that was both a) powerful (kinda) and b) reliable\trouble-free. The V8-6-4 of 1981 wasn't awful if you disabled it when it acted up, but the HT4100 that came in 1982 was the epitome of awful design and the less said about the Olds 350 diesel the better. This car was the pinnacle of luxury and technology and styling from GM in 1980. It's kind of funny to think about the type of person who bought these cars when they were new.
Interesting ad. He names all previous owners, which might be seen by some as an invasion of privacy. What is the value in terms of evaluating the car in knowing the names of the previous owners? Isn't it enough to just say "owner #1 did this," "owner #2 did that," etc.? Also, he says he's owned the car for only four months. Why is he selling it so quickly after buying it?
