Cadillac Eldorado
For 50 years, the Eldorado was Cadillac's flagship personal luxury car, representing American extravagance and comfort. It's famous for showcasing new technology and bold styling, from the iconic 1959 tailfins to the 1967 model's front-wheel drive.
Cadillac Eldorado sold for a median of $16,250 over the last 12 months, based on 233 auction sales; the middle half sold between $8,725 and $40,700. 659 currently for sale.
The Cadillac Eldorado enjoyed a 50-year run from 1953 to 2002 as the brand's premier personal luxury car. It often served as a showcase for Cadillac's latest styling and technology, from the legendary tailfins of the 1959 model to the introduction of front-wheel drive on the sharp-edged 1967 coupe. Spanning 12 distinct generations, the Eldorado nameplate consistently represented American automotive extravagance and comfort.
Collectors gravitate toward specific eras of the Eldorado. The ultra-rare 1953 convertible and flamboyant 1957-1960 models command the highest prices, celebrated for their bespoke styling and powerful V8s. The 1967-1970 coupes are also highly prized for their clean, muscular design. Later generations from the downsized 1980s and the final Northstar-powered cars of the 1990s offer a more accessible entry point to ownership.
The market for the Eldorado is exceptionally broad, with an average sale price of $33,267 across 603 recent transactions. While pristine, early-generation cars can fetch six-figure sums, a large volume of well-kept cars from the 1970s, '80s, and '90s frequently trade for under $20,000. This makes the Eldorado a nameplate with options for almost any collector's budget.
Buying Tips
Check for rust thoroughly, especially in the floor pans, trunk floor, and around the rear window, particularly on cars with vinyl tops.
On 1967 and later front-wheel-drive models, listen for clicking sounds from the CV joints during turns and check for smooth operation of the TH-425 transmission.
Older big-block V8s like the 472 and 500 are robust but can leak oil; later Northstar V8s require inspection for any signs of head gasket failure.
Test all power accessories, including seats, windows, locks, and the complex automatic climate control systems, as repairs can be expensive.
Prices for the Cadillac Eldorado range from $105 for project cars to $410,000 for concours-quality early models.
