New To Me:Self-Treat

I drove my Grandma to church Thanksgiving morning. She has a very nice Cadillac, and it made me remember my two previous 'Lac's. My 1986 Coupe De'Ville and my 2001 STS. Both of which I am digging to find photos of...

Well, let's just say the drive 'wet my whistle' for it, so I researched my dream car. Funny dream I know, but this car is perfect. It's long and lean, and the lines are perfect. It's smooth and powerful, and handles well. The seats hug you.

The unfortunate thing about the 'Eldorado' is that they stopped making them in 2002. So when I found this one with 52k miles on it, I went to see it. And then I made an offer, and then I drove it home.

This version is the ETC, Eldorado Touring Coupe. The way you can tell the difference between these and the normal version is that there is no chrome; the exterior is largely monochromatic. But it also has 300hp vice 275.

I know it's shameful, but I haven't been this happy in a while.
