In ’55, Cadillac added tubeless tires and a “hockey stick” chrome trim, boosting sales to a record 118,190. By ’56, the Series 62 had a grill fancier than a Michelin-starred meal and could sprint to 60 mph in a brisk, for its size, 12 seconds.

So, if you’re tired of getting the same results, maybe it’s time to shift gears and try something new—unless you fancy being the tortoise in a world of hares!
