2006 Cadillac Sts V8 Awd Luxury Performance Package Custom Candy Green Paint !! on 2040-cars
Peru, Illinois, United States
This auction is for a wild custom candy green 2006 Cadillac STS with every option you could get on it! This car started out with the blackberry color from the factory. We decided we did not want it to look like every other STS out there, so we took it all apart and gave it this custom candy green paint job. It is sort of close to the gotta have it green on the new ford mustangs. All the jambs and inside corners of the car are painted so whenever you open something you will see the green color all around, just like factory. This color looks outrageous in the sun, the pictures do not do it justice. When had it parked outside and people would pull there car over just to stop and look at it. The engine cover and brake calipers were also sprayed green to match. Besides the awesome paint on this car it is also the V8 all wheel drive luxury performance edition. That gets you a 320HP V8, All Wheel Drive, performance brakes and cooling along with magnetic ride control sport suspension. The same is used on the new Corvettes and Camaros. We also added the 18" Cadillac accessory wheels to give it the right look. This STS used to live in Arizona so there is no rust anywhere on this car. I have always run synthetics in this car. Its runs and drives fantastic and is super fast, you would never tell that it has 91000 miles on it.. This Cadillac also has Borla exhaust and it sounds mean. We also have a clean carfax on this car so no issues there. The windows are tinted with a 20% film so they are dark enough for the daytime but you can still see good at night. There is also the custom upper and lower chrome grills which accent the wheels and parts we painted silver on the car to give it a nice balance of a second color. This STS stickered for over $60000 in 2006. So here is your chance to get a custom Cadillac that you can rest assured everybody will take notice of.

Opel director Sedran to succeed Docherty as Chevy Europe boss
Wed, 26 Jun 2013When longtime General Motors executive Susan Docherty announced she would be stepping down from her post as the head of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe, there was some idle chatter that plans for the creation of a new global overseer position for the Bowtie brand was behind the move. And while US sales chief Alan Batey has indeed assumed control of Chevy worldwide since her departure announcement, Docherty's vacancy is being filled after all, with Opel chief strategist Thomas Sedran taking up the reins.
That's according to Automotive News, who reports that Sedran will be tasked with pulling Chevy out of a sales funk, much of it pegged on Europe's stagnant auto industry, which has sunk to a 20-year low. AN notes that Chevy's EU sales plunged 32 percent to 57,584 units through the first five months of 2013, but the everyday value brand is faring worlds better than Cadillac, which has sold just 167 units in Europe over the same time period.
Sedran, 48, has been in the auto industry for over 20 years. Most recently, at Opel he had been working on long-term plans for the marque, and was appointed to the brand's management board in April of last year. Prior to joining GM, Sedran was employed as a management consultant for AlixPartners, where he worked closely with Opel for six years. Sedran will assume his new duties beginning July 1.
Cadillac executive appointments have global flair
Wed, 17 Apr 2013Cadillac has rearranged its executive suite in order to take full advantage of its sales momentum. Don Butler is moving from his role as US VP of marketing to a newly created position with the title VP of global Cadillac strategic development. It will be his job to "drive the next phase of Cadillac growth internationally," planning strategy and developing new markets.
He will be replaced by Steve Majoros, an exec poached from Chevrolet's ad agency of record, Campbell Ewald. Majoros, who has the Chevrolet campaigns "Like a Rock" and "American Revolution" on his resume, will oversee Cadillac's US and international marketing.
Another component in the brand's renewed global focus includes conducting an ad agency review. Announced last month, Fallon Worldwide remains Cadillac's agency of record, but others, said to include Campbell Ewald, will be bidding to make the creative that helps Cadillac expand sales percentages by triple digits here and in China.

GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
