Cadillac Eldorado Brougham

The Cadillac Eldorado Brougham is a hand-built four-door hardtop made by Cadillac in the United States for the 1957 and 1958 model years. Its weirdest quirk: The glove box held six magnetic silver drink tumblers, and the vanity kit came with an atomizer of Arpège perfume.

A hand-built four-door that cost $13,074 in 1957, twice as much as a regular Eldorado and more than a Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud. Cadillac sold 400 that year and 304 the next.
