When did Cadillac lose it's prestige?

I was looking at this beautiful '66 Fleetwood on Ebay, to me it's one the classiest Cadillacs ever made. In the 70s, they started looking bloated and cheaper...especially the Eldorado IMHO. I think they started chrome plating plastic during the early 70s. Today, Cadillac is just a shadow of what it used to be and aside from the CTS-V, they don't get much attention. I imagine the first owner of this car was pretty well-to-do, but today driving a Caddy doesn't mean much. My grandparents were so proud of their Caddies back in the day. I'm guessing the 80s downsized models signaled the end...What happened?
