Everyone needs more malaise-era FWD Luxobarges in their lives.

For 1979, the Eldorado was drastically downsized yo, and offered initially with a 350ci Oldsmobile V8 and the reliable and powerful Oldsmobile LF9 Diesel. For 1980 the 350 was replaced with a 368ci Cadillac unit equipped with DEFI (Cadillac language for fuel injection). For 1981 the V8-6-4 engine which didn't work was supposed to reduce fuel consumption but didn't work was introduced. I 1982 Cadillac began offering the HT-4100 engine, which was rubbish had minor reliability issues (was rubbish). In 1984 and 1985 Cadillac even offered a Convertible (There were also some coachbuilt Convertibles prior to that y'know). Approximately 450.000 ninth-gen Eldorados were built (Chicks dig it).

Facts:
368ci (6,036cc) OHV V8, Fuel injected, 145hp, 270lb-ft (366Nm) all without Vtec kicked in yo!
3-speed automatic transmission because race boat, front-wheel-drive drift machine
3806lbs of Detroit steel (1726kg)
0-60 in 12.8 seconds when dat nonexistent Turbo spools
Top speed: 111mph (178kph) Veyron killer

Where is option NO ?

A car that you won't vote for?

It must be a sign...


EDIT: It just now dawned on me that this one is a joke suggestion, I can come up with a better one.
