Abandoned History: General Motors Sued by Beretta Over the Beretta

1 week ago | thetruthaboutcars.com | Corey Lewis

When General Motors introduced the Chevrolet Beretta in 1987, the lukewarm-to-warm economically-minded coupe wore the name of a gun manufacturer. An intentional decision, the Beretta name made the new model sound more exciting. Prior to the launch, the other Beretta (the gun company) warned The General not to use its name. GM’s executives simply ignored the warning. A lawsuit ensued as Beretta of Italy came after General Motors with guns blazing, one might say.

Rare Rides Icons: The Cadillac Eldorado, Distinctly Luxurious (Part LVII)

2 weeks ago | thetruthaboutcars.com | Corey Lewis

The Fleetwood Eldorado was all new for 1971, as the model stepped away from sporting pretensions and leaned into the burgeoning brougham and luxury tastes of American consumers. As we saw in our last installment, the angular late Sixties look of the Eldorado (lauded by almost everyone) was replaced with a curved and bloated shape which grew in all dimensions over its predecessor. Today we take a look at the lavish interior accommodations of the 1971 model and talk about cost cutting.

It has been over three years in the making, but the documentary The Last Independent Automaker chronicling the life and times of the American Motors Corporation debuts today on PBS. The team behind the documentary secured over 100 hours of footage from the AMC vaults, scoured hundreds of historical photographs, and interviewed more than 35 people from the AMC sphere.

Rare Rides Icons: The Cadillac Eldorado, Distinctly Luxurious (Part LVI)

3 weeks ago | thetruthaboutcars.com | Corey Lewis

In 1971 the Cadillac product lineup featured all-new styling, as the brand exited its era of clean lines and minimized chrome ornamentation. As we reviewed in our last installment, weight, cubic inches, and length measurements all ballooned over where they were the prior decade. At the same time, emphasis on build quality and brand differentiation within the GM portfolio began to decline. For the Eldorado’s part, it slipped into a new disco suit that lost its sleekness and sporting appeal.

The Cadillac lineup was all-new in 1971, as the brand entered what would be seen later as its decline from the Standard of the World status established (partially via marketing) in 1908. Slab-sided looks of the late Sixties were exchanged for bulbous fenders, and front ends became ever heavier and chromed. Headlamps (aside from Eldorado) were spread apart by a brougham logo, and made for an awkward visual approach.

Cadillac saw its sales successes escalate for the entirety of the Sixties, as it absolutely dominated the domestic luxury car market. Faced with lackluster competition from the likes of the conservative and upright Imperial (fuselage design arrived in 1969) or the aging Continental lineup from Lincoln, buyers flocked to Cadillac in droves.
