Hi, I just rtecently purchased an '01 Eldo Touring. Absolutely love the car. I replaced a Lexus Sc400 and the Caddy is an improvement over the Lexus cpe. I have not owned a Lincoln so I can't compare the two but I can tell you this is the best handling,most responsive luxury car I have owned. I...

I 've been informed there is a nice '67 Eldo here in Oregon. I am tempted to go see the car. They were sweet when they came out. My problem is,didn't they have some serious problems since they were the first front wheel drive Caddy,I believe. What do you think of the cars? I'm interested in...
