Here's a man who's learning the story of the 1961 Cadillac in the vefy best of all possible ways. He has taken an hour out--put himself in the driver's seat--and he's letting the car tell fhe story in its own way. And what's the report? Well, that new Cadillac is making the most eloquent statement on quality and goodness in all mqtordom--silence! Even on the by-lanes, it is virtually impossible to detect the sound of a Cadillac. And implicit in that silence is a story well worth the retelling. It speaks, first of all, of magnificent craftsmanship . . . with a care in assembly so intense that it has eliminated vibration as a necessary accompaniment to motoring. It testifies to extraordinary soundness of engineering--with a precision in performance that keeps even that great new Cadillac engine down to a hushed whisper. And it tells of truly remarkable styling . . . with a grace of shape and form that vn A//&nc&A tames the rushing wind to a soft lullaby. Of course, there are some things which a new Cadillac--with becoming modesty-- won't tell about itself. There's its. wonderful dependability, for instance, and its unrivaled resale value year after year. But your dealer will be happy to round out the story after your demonstration drive --and to explain how easily this splendid car could be yours.
