The\u00a01960<\/strong> model year was an impressive beginning to a new decade. During the\u00a0Sixties<\/strong>,\u00a0Cadillac<\/strong> styling became more graceful and restrained as\u00a0Bill Mitchell<\/em> gradually unified\u00a0the design. Few new engineering advances were introduced, but orderly design development\u00a0and a conservative styling approach set\u00a0Cadillac<\/strong> apart from other luxury makes and\u00a0maintained its reputation as\u00a0“The Standard of the World.”<\/em> To the American public,\u00a0Cadillac<\/strong> remained a symbol of\u00a0prestige<\/em>,\u00a0success<\/em>, and\u00a0good taste<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Though\u00a0Cadillac’s<\/strong> V-8 was unchanged, the slightly lighter\u00a0’65s<\/strong> offered the luxury market’s\u00a0best power-to-weight ratio.\u00a0“Dual driving range”<\/strong> Turbo Hydra-Matic and full-perimeter\u00a0frames were adopted. Amazingly, prices weren’t far above what they’d been in ’61.<\/p>\n
