The 1957 Cadillac Eldorado was better. It was not only the most expensive production vehicle available that year- more than a Rolls Fucking Royce. It also had a minibar in the glove compartment, a feature which just wasn't available on later models.

This 1957 Cadillac has a bar in the glove box

Single door, meaning theres one door on each side, not a 4 door sedan........but yes, a two door.

The 1960's, particularly the late '60s wasn't a great time for car style -- boxy designs and less comfortable interiors than previous years ... ONE 1969 car does stand out however

If i was alive back then, it probably wouldnt have been, though.

From 1969, that is the DBS V8 --- as seen driven by James Bond in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".

Unless it's 1987 and you paid $600 for it because it's full of rust and a supersled.

I do like the lines that model had. Now imagine it being a red convertible with white interior.
Those things would get up and go.
