It probably won't surprise you to learn that most peoplegiven a choice of any motor car in the land -- would choose Cadillac. For Cadillac is so widely acknowledged the master of motor cars that it has become a vital part not only of the American dream--but of the aspirations of people everywhere. It is a possession deliberately created to represent design and craftsmanship at their highest levels--and to render the fullest possible measure of personal enjoyment and satisfaction. Happily, more and more of Cadillac's "secret admirers" have this year decided to declare their intentions, to select their own favorite Cadillac model--and start driving one! And with good reason. First of all, the car itself provides a greater temptation to action than ever before. In the way it looks and rides and handles--it has widened even further the gulf that exists between Cadillac and other motor cars. Secondly, the "car of cars" is now within the means of an even larger number of motorists. Its original cost is surprisingly close to cars of far less stature and acceptance. Its dependability and reliability are unparalleled. And it is the "resale champion" of all motordom. We suggest you pay your Cadillac dealer a visit--and let him arrange a date with your secret love.
