The 1997-2002 Cadillac Eldorado, a luxurious two-door coupe, marked a significant shift in design for the iconic brand. Debuting in 1997, this generation ditched the traditional, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout in favor of a more modern, front-wheel-drive platform. This change aimed to improve fuel efficiency and provide a smoother ride, and it marked a change in direction for the Cadillac brand as they sought to attract a younger demographic while still maintaining the sense of prestige and comfort associated with the name. Under the hood, the Eldorado was powered by a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine, delivering smooth power and a refined driving experience. The Eldorado's design was a departure from the boxy, angular lines of previous generations, embracing a flowing, aerodynamic aesthetic. This sleek design was complemented by a luxurious interior featuring leather upholstery, wood trim, and advanced technology features like a Bose sound system and a navigation system. The 1997-2002 Cadillac Eldorado was a well-rounded luxury coupe that offered a comfortable ride, impressive performance, and a stylish interior. However, the Eldorado was not without its challenges, with some owners reporting issues with the Northstar engine's reliability and the complexity of its electronic systems. The Eldorado's unique design and features garnered a dedicated following, and its sleek and modern silhouette made it a popular choice for those seeking a luxurious and stylish ride. However, its departure from traditional Cadillac design and the subsequent introduction of the CTS in 2003 ultimately led to the discontinuation of the Eldorado nameplate in 2002. Despite its relatively short lifespan, the 1997-2002 Cadillac Eldorado represents a pivotal moment in Cadillac history, signifying a shift toward a more modern and contemporary design language that would define the brand for years to come.
