9 Future Cadillac Collectibles

[bloomsman]

In the latest Hemmings Classic Car magazine there is an article on what the magazine staff considers the Nine future Cadillac collectibles. The XLR is number 9 of 9. The short article starts with "This one hits all of our hot buttons" and ends with "coolest, most collectible future Cadillac you'probably never seen". John

John -

Did the Allante rank anywhere?

Wishful thinking on my part - bet I already know the answer!

 

[bloomsman]

Carter, yes the Allante was listed as Five of the Nine. John

Surprise, surprise!

Thanks John...

What was number one a 1959 convertible?

I remember a cartoon when I was a youngster - it showed two ship wrecked guys in a life raft being circled by two sharks - all you could see were two fins that were side-by-side. One guy looks at the other and says: "It's either sharks or a '59 caddy"!

They are listed in the following order no numbers attatched to the order

75-79 Seville
Special Bodies
82-85 Eldorado Touring Coupe
84-85 Eldorado convertible
87-93 Allante
94-96 Fleetwood
2000- present Escalade
04- present CTS/CTS-V
04-09 XLR/XLR-V

:/ 00+ escalade & 04+ cts on the list don't really make for a good 'collectible' list...
