The Man Who Brought Us Cadillac and Lincoln The importance of Cadillac and Lincoln in upholding the reputation of American automakers was driven home in July 2003, when marketing research firm J. Power and Associates released the results of two surveys. Three Cadillacs, the only cars that entered the contest, were shipped to England, and officials completely disassembled them, mixed up their parts, and then reassembled the cars. Cadillac soon became GM's prestige brand, and its reputation loomed larger in 1912 when it became the only company ever to win a second Dewar Trophy, this time for its electric starting and ignition system. www.hnn.us /articles/1646.html   (1154 words)

Drant with a proposition, for $3.5 million, to buy Cadillac into the conglomerate of General Motors. Cadillac also led the way for being the first car company to sell a totally constructed luxury car, instead of having to go to a coachbuilder to have a body built for the car's chassis. everything2.com /index.pl?node=Cadillac   (1465 words)

Cadillac history 1903 The first Cadillac was completed on Oct. 17, 1902 and was given its maiden test drive by Alanson P. Brush, the twenty-four-year-old Leland and Faulconer engineer who had contributed substantially to the car's design and who would later build the Brush Runabout. Cadillac did not use the "A" designation in 1903; however, later Cadillac publications combined references to the 1903 "Cadillac" and "1904 Model A" and used "Model A" in reference to all single cylinder cars with two front springs and angle steel frame. In July, 1903, F. Bennett exported a Cadillac to England where it was entered in the Sunrising Hill Climb which was reported to be "the worst hill in England." It placed seventh in a field of 17 other cars, but it was the only one with one cylinder. 100megsfree4.com /cadillac/cad1900/cad03s.htm   (1547 words)

Cadillac CTS - Review & Road Test - Automobile Magazine To a teenager in the early 1970s, a Cadillac Eldorado was the very definition of an American car, something you could imagine taking for a cruise into the desert, one arm around your honey, one fingertip on the wheel, with Elvis crooning away on the eight-track. To me, Cadillacs were always the biggest of the big, whether you looked back into the mists of the 1930s at the gorgeous V-12s and V-16s, or at the befinned extravaganzas of the late 1950s, or even at the front-wheel-drive boats of the following decade. Cadillac, provider of floppy, ill-handling land yachts from the 1960s to the 1990s, has built a new entry-luxury car that handles really well. www.automobilemag.com /reviews/sedans/0109_cadillac_cts   (724 words)

Cadillac - Wikicars Today, it is a brand of luxury automobile, part of the General Motors Corporation, produced and mostly sold in the United States and Canada; outside of North America, they have been less successful. In the United States, the name became a synonym for "high quality", used in such phrases as "the Cadillac of clocks." This is less prevalent, though still known, in other English-speaking countries (who are more likely to use Rolls-Royce in such phrases). As the Cimarron was rushed to production about three years ahead of schedule, only a four-cylinder engine was available (though a V6 arrived in 1985) and at first, minimal styling differences were made to distiguish it from the considerably cheaper Chevrolet version, and buyers dismissed it as a "warmed-over Cavalier". wikicars.org /en/Cadillac   (3974 words)
