No one will want this, but interesting provenance
1998 Cadillac Eldorado with 146k, 30k on current engine. Exterior and interior look quite spic and span. Under the hood looks kinda dirty in comparison, which is weird, but not a biggie.
Not a fan of the colors used in the car. What makes it interesting is that the seller is Mike Ness of Social Distortion. https://mikeness.squarespace.com/98-cadillac

Nothing says heavily tattooed punk guitarist like a late 90's FWD Cad.

I actually thought the 4 door STS version was pretty cool back then but what did I know.

Yeah I think it looked distinctly American and Cadillac but in a more modern up to date way. I kinda still like them when I see one on the road Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

My Uncle left his 1995(?) Eldorado to my Dad when he passed away in 1997.
It became the generic 'extra' car in the family for a while. As such, when I visited - it was the car I was given to get around in. All in all - It was a pretty nice ride. Northstar V8 and all the bells and whistles and... Just comfortable for cruising in. I drove it down HWY 1 a few times (Big Sur) and while it was not my first choice for driving down that way - all in all, a very good 'cruise-mobile' while getting near 30mpg if I recall correctly. It started to have electrical glitches and my Dad grew frustrated with it (in that way) - so it was sold off after a couple of years.
