Review
I bought my '92 Cadillac Eldorado Touring Coupe at an auto auction a little over a month ago for a few hundred dollars. It wasn't my first choice, but I am so glad that I bought it. Best purchase ever. It has it's issues- I've replaced two tires, the exhaust manifold, the instrument panel and the glove box latch. All parts were gotten cheap. Whomever had this car took very good care of it. Mechanically, it is perfect. The leather interior is almost perfect and it drives like a dream. I plan on having this car for as long as it will stay alive. I recommend this car to anyone, especially parents buying for a new driver. Very solid, safe car.

I've driven over 30,000 west coast miles. Really enjoy driving this car. It makes me smile and often laugh every time I walk up to it. Such a great streamlined look! I agree its the only car that looks like its moving when it's sitting still. So sexy and elegant. Replaced drivers window motor and recently have been tracking an electrical weirdness. Replaced the starter/battery but still sometimes clicks instead of starting. Haven't been able to figure it out. Speakers were going on and off then smelled electrical so don't use it. The a/c goes on and off sometimes when I go over bumps so there's some wiring with bad connects. I still love it and am keeping it for now.

my eldorado is rock solid. i had an accident in it with a f250 and my father got the body of the car fixed and it runs like it was never wrecked. i haave test driven newer cars and can't find much to match the strength of my el dorado. it even has decent gas mileage for a cadillac.

Gracious, old-fashioned Italianesque (Pininfarina's spirit?) beauty with a classic flair. The handling is very precise and feels crisp and agile -- with quick response of a spiffy little sports car, but with all the safety benefits of a big heavy car. The car is extremely comfortable to drive. The seats are thick and firm and this helps me feel less tired after long trips. I have the sports analog gauge. Still runs on original transmission and 4.9L V8. Past repairs:air suspension, some worn original gaskets & seals, oil pump. Planned:a/c compressor, struts. Otherwise maintenance. I love that pulling trouble codes is built right into the controls. Overall a good, reliable car over the years.

This is a beautiful car but that beauty is only skin deep. Below the skin is a mechanical junk pile of the poorest engineeering I have ever seen and I am an engineer. I thought I was buying the ultimate in American automotive engineering. In 110,000 miles I have gone thru 3 alternators, 4 water pumps, at least 5 serpentine belts, one catalytic converter and numerous failures to pass smog tests. The drivers side window does not operate properly. The radio, Bose system, is all snap, crackle and pop. Oh, and now the drivers side view mirror does not work, and the heater has given up. Like I said, it is the prettiest pile of junk I have ever owned.

I bought this car with 125,000 miles on the odometer and have put over 20,000 more miles on it since I purchased it less than a year ago and the car has been great. It's powerful, reliable, comfortable, and good looking. Its fuel economy isn't great, but the 4.9 engine has been very solid. I am particulary amazed at the build quality. The car still has the original a/c and it blows as cold as ice. I would recommend this car to anyone.

The designers of the 1992 cadillac
eldorado saw into the future. The crisp
rectangular styling of rear end is just
now being picked up by manuafatures
like BMW and Daimler-Chrysler. Drivers
and passengers will confuse the 1992's
interior for that of a much newer car.
The Eldorado borrows much of its
classy, yet agressive, styleing from
the Pininfarina designed Allante. As
far as mechanical dependability the car
is average to below average. Most note
worthy are problems with the
transmission and air ride suspension.
I feel they are an even trade off for
the car's style and comfort.

One of very few vehicles that just look
like it is in motion (57 Chev, 92 and
up Eldo) while it is standing still.
The previous owner rear-ended a car on
the freeway and was fixed at a Cadillac
dealer. It looks great for an 11 year
old car. It is a real pleasure to
drive, being very responsive and
handles great. It is a touring coupe.
A must-own for me from the first model
I saw.

I been driving eldorado (w/ 64000
miles) over 2 months and is been a lot
of fun. I like the eldorado so much
that i just purchase anoht one for my
son. My son wants mine any i will keep
the new one (only 57000 miles).
The price of 92 eldorados are going down
and there is the perfect time to buy
them while they last.
