“Madeline,” the 1959 Cadillac Eldorado from the film, is more than just a car due to many reasons. She’s a timeless embodiment of elegance and luxury as a result of her sweeping tailfins, gleaming chrome accents, and iconic “Dagmar” bumper grille. Moreover, these aspects give her a sense of presence that’s unrivaled. Behind the wheel, you feel like you’re in a classic Hollywood movie. Madeline’s V8 engine purrs with power and her plush leather seats cradle you in comfort (via The Stang Source).
