    Cadillac Eldorado (11th gen) 1992-2002

    Cadillac Eldorado eleventh generation 1992-2002

    For 1992, Cadillac introduced a new, significantly larger Eldorado, approximately 11" longer than its predecessor. Window glass was once again frameless, and shortly after introduction Cadillac's new Northstar V8 became available in both 270 and 295 hp (220 kW) variants, replacing the 200 hp (150 kW) 4.9 L. Sales were up, though never again at record heights.

    The Eldorado continued for the rest of the decade with incremental changes and tapering sales. A passenger side airbag was added as standard equipment in 1993. Fresh exterior styling - in the form of updated bumpers front and rear, side cladding, and a new grille - arrived for '95. 1996 featured a slightly revamped interior with a new upholstery sew style, larger analog gauge cluster, relocated climate control system, and updated stereo faces. In the wake of declining sales, circulating reports that the Eldorado would get a redesign for 1999 — similar to that which the Seville underwent for 1998 — would prove false as the car soldiered on largely unchanged into the new millennium, although it did get some upgrades from the 1999 Seville.

    The car was sold under Cadillac ETC (Eldorado Touring Coupe) and ESC (Eldorado Sport Coupe) trim

    How could this icon from '59 be transformed into such a non-entity? I still like the current model, but it's lost a little something along the way.

    This reflects perfectly the turn of fortunes for Detroit.

    Back in 1959 they were a leading force in auto industry, now they are turning into "non-entity" like you said.

    A lot of poetic irony there

    (Fact-o-matic: These two pictures, and the last from the previous post show the EDM version of the Eldorado)
