Ambitious price?
 
I actually thought it was a fair, if not good, price. Their list price, which is no haggle btw, is around NADA trade value. I am sincerely curious as to how high you think it is.
 
Thanks!

Yeah - naturally not too many RWD examples here in Colorado. Maybe some coupes, but certainly very few sedans.

"...would look good next to my..."
 
Would look good next to just about anything. I wish I had that kind of dough to throw at a used car.
 
One question, do you prefer the AWD to the RWD?

"...since we're discussion Caddys..."
 
I thought you were going to the car show not the boat show. I like all those except the 1973 Ford. The drivability of those years was terrible as car makers struggled with pollution control and milage.

love the thermometer
 
I've never seen one like that on a Caddy. My 89 Town Car had one just like it.
 
The 99 LTC, could be OK depending on the mileage. The 98-02 style just isn't my favorite. 90-97 and 03-11 is much better.

My grandparents had an LTD just like that one when I was growing up except it was a lighter shade of green. Seemed OK for what it was, although I do remember them having to let it "warm up" for a couple of minutes before driving away so it wouldn't stall.

I owned a 71 Galaxy and all 4 doors rusted through the bottom in 3 years.

That's mighty cheap. That's close to auction value.
 
Am I right to say that doesn't have bun warmers, though? In Colorado? Is that allowed?

I think the seller of that '79 Caddy made a typo in the price.
 
'73 LTD: see... this is a more realistic seller.
 
For the same price, and assuming 120k miles or less on the Lincoln, I'd rather have that than the S430.
