The New Eight-Cylinder Cadillac
Type 55
Awaits Your Examination
THERE is one thought in connection with the coming of this new Cadillac which wo would
like you to grasp at once.
With the advent of this car, the Cadillac "Eight" enters upon its third successive season, with no
radical change in the basic principles of its design.
This is perhaps the first time such a thing has happened in motor car development, and you will
quickly see its significance as applied to the Cadillac.
Quite properly, we believe, the World has always looked to the Cadillac Company for advanced
ideas, improved practice and progressive principles.
The fact, therefore, that the Cadillac car has proven itself beyond the need of radical change is,
in itself, too impressive and too illuminating to call for comment. ' -
It does not, by any manner of means, implyjthat the Cadillac process of refinement had come to a
conclusion. 4MsMSM '
In a multitude of ways, this is a better, finer Cadillac than any which has preceded it the subject
of unremitting research and scientific betterment in scores of details.
What the absence of radical change really means, is that the underlying principles of Cadillac V-
type eight-cylinder construction have been proven fundamentally sound by the performance of
31,000 cars.
It means that the Cadillac Company, with resources at its command probably superior to those
possessed by any other motor car plant in the world, has arrived at the deliberate judgment
that the kind of a motor car which it is now building represents a higher degree of efficiency
than any other in existence.
It means that this is the joint judgment of every expert mind associated with this Company. It
expresses the judgment of 31,000 owners who cannot conceive of any respect in which Cadillac
principles could be changed to their advantage. -
The new Cadillac conforms to the finest Cadillac traditions, down to the least and last of details
and it advances them still more closely toward perfection.
It is a beautiful car to look upon.
The superior riding qualities, with which you are familiar, are enhanced and intensified.
The driving ease of last year and the year before,accentuated by the longer wheelbase of the new
car, is more marked than ever.
It is doubtful if motoring can give rise to a situation which can successfully challenge Cadillac
powers.
The old feeling that it is folly to seek' further the old sense of security that the Cadillac repre
sents the uttermost in a motor car will come over you more strongly than ever.
We are serenely confident of the exhilaration an d enthusiasm which you will experience on the
occasion of your first ride in this unusual car. ,
