67coupedeville Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Around six or eight months ago, a used car lot had a 1994 SLS, pearl white, sunroof, owned by a stereo shop owner since new. I test drove it with my Dad and it was just an excellent car but the 1995 Eldorado came up on here and I jumped on it due to the drastically lower price. The SLS was $10,000 on the lot and I was talking to a good friend of mine that works at a local wholesale car auction and he told me about this SLS they had go through the tuesday public couple weeks ago. I hit the floor after I asked a few questions about it. It was the same car that I test drove, it was still on their lot literally weeks ago. The car sold at the auction for $3600! He said the reserve was $3500. I was choked for most of the afternoon. I told him to keep an eye out for a navy 96 Deville and if it comes through to give me a dingle because I know there is one on another lot that has been there forever and a day. I am still shocked that it went for that cheap. Spence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

67coupedeville Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Have yet to do anything with the Eldorado. My good friend works at the Caddy stealership and he said he can get me a new GM tranny for his cost so I'm just waiting for the snow to go away. I've bought a set of CTS wheels for it so far lol. The Eldo has been just taking the winter off at the farm. Going to be the keeper, that's for sure. Plan is to sell the 91 Fleetwood and 95 Chrysler LHS and keep the Eldorado and pick up a newer (96+) STS, Eldorado, Deville, etc. I'll keep everyone posted on the Eldo in the up coming months, got big plans for that one .
