Some cars leave a paper trail; the Cadillac Cyclone left a name, a year — 1959 — and a place in Cadillac's list. What follows is what can be said with a source behind it.
The story
The Cadillac Cyclone is a concept car built in 1959 by Cadillac. The Cyclone was never mass-produced as a production model. It currently resides within the GM Heritage Collection.
Its place in the line
Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Nissan Patrol, the Dodge Challenger, the Mini Mini — show what else the money bought that year. Nearby in the Cadillac catalogue sit the Cadillac 353 and the Cadillac ATS.
What it costs now
MotorJury scores cars on the United States complaint and recall record, and the Cadillac Cyclone has none: too old, too rare, or never sold there. Its value today is a collector's question, decided by provenance and condition rather than by a class average.
