S'il est un patronyme automobile qui fait rêver des générations d'enthousiastes, tout en symbolisant le dynamisme américain ainsi que sa modernité, c'est bien celui de Cadillac. La Cadillac Automobile Company est fondée à la clôture d'une réunion réunissant un groupe décidé, originaire de Detroit par un chaud après-midi du 22 août 1902.
Devenu la division d'élite de la jeune General Motors à partir de 1909, Cadillac s'impose alors comme une entité sur laquelle il faut désormais compter. Aussi bien auprès de ses principaux concurrents nationaux, Packard, Lincoln, Pierce-Arrow, Stutz, Peerless ou encore Duesenberg, que ceux non moins redoutables installés en Europe tels que Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Hispano-Suiza, Delage ou Isotta Fraschini.
La division s'inscrit dans une constante recherche technique, les modèles de la maison proposent par exemple, une première mondiale, le démarrage et l'éclairage électrique dès 1912, ou encore à disposition de la clientèle un choix unique de mécaniques V8, V12 ou V16, puis s'adonne à partir de 1967 à la technique des roues avant motrices.
Après guerre stylistiquement parlant, la firme de Clark avenue engage en faveur de son catalogue une démarche personnelle qui fera date, et influencera de nombreux compétiteurs de part le monde. De nos jours Cadillac affiche un dynamisme retrouvé, une réputation de savoir faire qui s'étend désormais jusqu'en Chine.
Cet ouvrage retrace la riche et longue histoire de Cadillac, marque américaine de prestige et toujours en activité.

For eleven years prior to World War II, Cadillac defied the norms of practicality and produced an extravagant supercar, a 16-cylinder luxury automobile that could be tailored to the customer's every want. Big, thirsty and lavish, it cemented Cadillac's place in the top tier of motoring magnificence.
Each of the cars has its own colorful and fascinating story to tell. Driven by a life-long love of the V-16 and an interest in the history of his own car, the author has assembled more than 65 of these tales, gleaned from interviews, books, periodicals and documents, into a liberally illustrated book.
Each story is shaped by the people a particular car touched, and the events they lived through together.

Cadillac V-16s Lost and Found - Tracing the Histories of the 1930s Classics
Idioma: Inglés

In 1930, Cadillac rolled out a line of new cars of unsurpassed elegance and craftsmanship that would launch the company into the top tier of luxury carmakers. While competitors produced models with eight or twelve-cylinder engines, Cadillac offered the smooth, powerful performance of a V-16.
Over the next 11 years, each of the nearly 4000 V-16s were as close to hand-made as a commercial auto manufacturer could come.
Their drivers included statesmen, celebrities, businessmen and, sometimes, well-heeled ne'er-do-wells. Many of the cars have survived wartime scrap drives, obsolescence, lack of replacement parts, neglect and the elements. This follow-up volume to "Cadillac V-16s Lost and Found" (2014) presents author's second effort to document the stories of these magnificent machines.

The Cadillac story is more than the story of a car company. It is, in many ways, the story of the American automobile industry itself - which, as much as any industry, drove America's growth in the twentieth century and defined who we are as a people: mobile and prosperous. Cadillac, again and again, played a critical role in that story, for both good and ill.
In the depths of the Great Depression, the brand redefined itself and the luxury market. After World War II, it epitomized expansive prosperity. Then, in the 1980s, it epitomized the industrial crisis that had suddenly overtaken America. Today, Cadillac's struggle to survive in a furiously competitive - and suddenly international - automobile industry mirrors the challenges facing American industry as a whole. Its success in meeting those challenges will have much to say about the future of American industry and of General Motors.

Cadillac Eldorado (1967-1978) - Brooklands Performance Portfolio

Comprar en Amazon.com Comprar en Amazon ESde Anthony Young (Autor)
Cadillac has had a long history in the automotive marketplace as General Motors' luxury car division. During the 1980s, Cadillac's management wanted to reestablish the brand as a leader in sophistication, innovation, refinement and prestige.
Engineers conceived a new dual-overhead cam, four-valve-per-cylinder V-8 engine - the Northstar. This power plant was the heart of Cadillac's Northstar System, which included a greatly improved suspension and braking system.
The division redesigned its entire line to incorporate these new technologies for the 1990s and beyond. The Northstar was the last engine designed and built by Cadillac before the 2005 establishment of GM Powertrain, which took over engine design for all GM divisions.
This history of the Northstar V-8 and the cars it powered covers the first generation front-wheel drive Northstar, the second generation rear-wheel drive model, and the supercharged version, along with racing history and the most collectible Northstar-powered Cadillacs.
