ORIGINAL: 71eldorado

I'm new in here, but thought I'd participate. Had a 94 Deville and loved it. Tomorrow, I get my hands on my 1971 Eldorado convertible that I just purchased sight unseen (ebay). Look very forward to making her a traffic stopper!!

I've heard horror stories, and not something I would ever do, but I wish you the best of luck. Look forward to you posting photos of making her a traffic stopper. Actually post the photo when you get her and we can do a before and after comparison.

Good luck, hope it's not TOO big a project for you.

For a American sedan, it''s a toss up between the Deville (DTS) and the Seville (STS). Both you can drive with a lot of comfort, power and manageability, and elegance.

The Deville has a slight edge in the comfort category for obvious reasons and is likely the best choice for the family car. For people that want what it has to offer there''s no other choice from an American Manufacture.

The Seville wins in looks. It''s a nicely balanced American Sport/Luxury Sedan that carries you off as if you were driving an exclusive sports coupe with all the amenities of the Deville.

IMO Ford and Chrysler can''t come close to either of these cars with what they offer in their lineups.

This is tough!

The coolest by far is the XLR-V

However the best would be the Eldorado 1968-1977

You cant beat the 8.2 liter monster V8

I had a 1970 eldorado customized by g. barris in calif. it was blue with sidemount sim. tires , simulated alligator 1/2 roof , this was a COOL car!! It had afactory 501/400hp engine it would roar at idle ,nice deep idle , I loved that one as the eldorado progressed?the horsepower of the 501''s lessened because of gas consumption !!those eldorado''s are definatly among my favorites!!
