Offered here is my good friends' 1996 Cadillac Eldorado ETC. This touring coupe comes with the 300 HP Northstar motor. Much faster and stronger than the regular base Eldorado coupe. On the drive down from New York, this car gave me 18 miles per gallon highway, should do 12-14 around town. It has less than normal miles at 6874 miles per year for an 18 year old vehicle. Kelly Blue Book has the value of this car listed at $3685 in fair condition, $4110 in good condition(which is the value placed on it), $4235 in Very Good condition and $4485 in Excellent condition... I have owned the car for approx. 4 years, and have Never had a breakdown. The previous owner, which was an elderly woman in NY, did not keep the Leather interior so it has afew cracks and shows clean wear. The drivers' seat shows the most wear, but I placed seat covers on both front heated seats, which both work well. It is being sold at No Reserve. Please ask any/all questions that will be answered as soon as possible. Being an ex-fleet manager at a rental car company in NY, I was able to keep this car running very well, as I had access to a great mechanic and plenty of parts. I also bought extra parts that are included in the spare tire well. All power items work well. Muffler might need to be replaced, so will a wheel sensor, as Brake and Traction control lights are on. The brakes are not compromised as the car stops well with replaced front & rear drilled, slotted rotors and New ceramic pads on all 4 corners. I also replaced the Transmission with a brand new unit from Lee Myles in January, then drove down to Florida without any issues whatsoever. Those 1500 or less miles are the Only miles on this Transmission. I have receipts for all work done. Title is clean and signed, Ready for the New Owner. Moonroof opens with ease and also vents with No Problem At All. Leather Steering wheel and Shifter Handle in Great condition, as I found here on e-bay and replaced both items. I replaced the factory radio with a Kenwood KVT-717, Removable flip-face DVD radio, Navigation ready with remote control and also comes with the original manual. I had a Crimestopper remote alarm system with remote lock & unlock entry features installed as soon as I bought the car. The original Cadillac key and 2 remotes are included, along with all original paperwork. The Original factory Owners' manual is still in the glovebox. The airbag suspension was replaced with Brand New front struts and rear shocks about a year ago. Motor runs well, but has a very small oil leak on Oil pan, just a drop or 2 noticed. My mechanic told me it is an easy repair, just needing the oil pan gasket replaced. Many New Parts installed, this car is a steal at this price. I'm sure that I am missing some info on this fine vehicle, so please ask questions and they will be answered as soon as possible. Offered at No Reserve. Many Thanks for looking, watching and/or bidding. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Jun-01-14 at 07:15:43 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to add that the tires are matching 225-60/16 Goodyear Eagles, that I purchased Brand New from Mavis Tire back in NY just prior to my leaving. I have the receipts to verify. Tons of tread left on them, many years of use the next owner will get out of them. Lots of money I put into this car, hope it is appreciated by the next owner. Many Thanks, Robert.... On Jun-03-14 at 05:37:59 PDT, seller added the following information: I was asked about the upgraded suspension. The original air bag suspension was replaced with ARNOT front & rear struts & shocks because the factory air bags are way too expensive at $800 each. Thats why I made the change and now it rides better and stronger than orginal, I think. They also have a replacement air bag set-up, but I needed strenght back in NY, so I opted for the more expensive setup. There is a diode that comes with the new suspension to let the computer think the suspension has not been changed. That was put in incorrectly back in NY, but I hope to have done prior to the new owner picking up the car at my buddy's garage here with info from ARNOT, unless new owner doesn't care. I also have the booklet from ARNOT to prove what I say. I also have a few offers here, so please bid on this vehicle which was being offered at Highway Tire prior to me placing this auction ad. The car is being stored at Highway Tire in Palm City now, as I took it off the road in the beginning of May. Good Luck, Robert...
