      I think I have decided the 1994-1996 Fleetwood Broughams are my favorite due to the ride, handling, performance and relatively good fuel economy. Surprisingly the little 350 Chevy LT1 engine tromps these big block Cadillac engines. The mid 90s seem to be the best combination of "old school" and modern tech.

    Beautiful car! I love the 75-76 Cadillacs, RWD or Eldorado. The originality of this car is amazing. Most 76 Cadillacs this nice are Eldorado convertibles... also beautiful cars, but those were often bought to be preserved. Sedans, particularly deVille and Calais sedans, were used as regular drivers, and finding one this clean seems to be much harder than finding a nice, original 76 Eldorado convertible. I love the thunder... reminds me of Tucson.

      GM introduced the 4 door hardtop in 1955. By 1956 the Bel-air was so available. GM introduced the 2 door hardtop in 1949. The last year for GM's two door hardtops was 1972 for the midsized and compact cars, and 1973 for the full sized cars. The Camaros and Firebirds still had frameless windows but no rear 1/4 glass.
      The last year for GM's 4 door hardtop was 1976. The last year for convertibles was 1975 except for El Dorado which was 1976. In 1982 GM pissed off a LOT of Eldorado "last convertible" owners by introducing the Riviera convertible! And they pissed me off by NOT bringing back the 2 door and 4 door hardtop! Hey, if you can make a convertible get by "rollover standards" why not a hardtop? Now the 1995-1999 Oldsmobile Auroras had frameless windows but they still had a "B" pillar.
      The only recent two door hardtops I have ever noticed are Mercedes. There may be others, but I have not seen any.

      Too much dude. I can see maybe around $25K but $33 is WAY too much for the shape this car is in . He showed the chips and scratches. He said there is surface rust. He replaced the tires but not with the period correct whitewalls as he should have (he got the cheapo Optima 's). Plus its not a well optioned car. No delay wipers, twilight sentinel or auto dimming. Plus the color isn't one of the more preferred colors. Sure the 11K miles makes it worth more which is why I estimate around $25ish.
      I had one of these around 20 years ago as a daily driver. They are really awesome cars to drive, especially on the highway. Mine was originally owned by a district manager for Cadillac. He turned it in after like 2 years with 11K miles which is when the man I bought it from purchased it from the Cadillac dealer. I think it had around 45K on it when I bought it around 2000. And as I recall, I paid somewhere in the neighborhood of around $4,500 for it. Paint in pristine condition along with the white top and white leather interior.

    Neat car, the only thing out of place conditionwise for 11,000 miles was the a/c condenser. Small time flipper seller looking for a payday (I'm not sure why he is bragging on eBay about the other cars he has sold), who likely paid less than $20,000 for the car then spent less than $2,000 for shipping from N.J. and new tires. No buyers yet at $34,750. Its a shame that it hasn't received a proper detailing. Probably the only thing holding back buyers is it being a pretty basic model, although nicely upgraded with Cadillac wire wheel covers and the hood ornament.

      The reason I list cars I have sold on Ebay is for the very reason I am a small time hobbyist. So to inform people I have some sort of success and experience on Ebay, I list the cars I have sold. I am not a dealer that has a widespread reputation. I have well more than $30,000 in the car. I am NOT a "flipper" but someone who loves cars. And since I cannot afford to have a huge collection. I can only own 3-5 cars at a time. When I get the urge to try something new, I have to rotate one or two cars out of my meager collection. If I had my way, I would own at least 25 all at once. I am not sure why you have made so many assumptions about me. But I am not the actual owner of this particular car! I gave it to my brother. And since he has NO experience of selling cars on Ebay, I am acting as his surrogate, or representative. Out of the 81 cars I have owned in my life, I can assure you my record is a significant net loss. That I more than break even is a very rare event. As they say you make money when you BUY a car. I am way too apt to pay a bit too much as the enjoyment of ownership sometimes is priceless.

These "woke" governments should start building as many modern nuclear power plants as humanly possible if they want to get rid of the internal combustion engine.
