1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz.
Engine: 390
Exterior Color: Persian
Starting bid: US $225,000.00
The Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz was one of the vehicles produced by Cadillac to win the ‘fin wars.’
It was never meant to be a cheap entry car and the prices are now no different as you can see from the starting price.
Low production numbers of 1,320 and a consistent high valuation means a Biarritz will now go for anything between $112,000 and $259,000 according to Hagerty https://www.hagerty.com/apps/valuationtools/1959-Cadillac-Eldorado-Biarritz
This one is also being auctioned at Mecum and sounds like it is having extra work done before its final auction, like new chrome detailing.
These huge cruisers are in a category of their own, which means to the Cadillac collector, this is one to shortlist.
