Up for auction is this 1989 Cadillac Allante Convertible with removable hard top. 4.5 LTR V-8, auto fully loaded. Pearl white with burgandy leather interior. It has a little over 220 thousand miles. Body is in nice shape with the exception of a ding on the hood and a small dent on the bottom front of the drivers door. Here is the story. A friend of ours purchased this car in early 2003 for his wifes personal driver. She drove it regularly in the good months up until late 2009. She needed a car with more room so she bought a Lincoln and put this car up. We recently aquired this car in a trade. Battery was low so we jumped the car and drove it home. The only thing we noticed was the brakes were a little hard when applied and we figured it was from just sitting so long without use. Planned on going thru it anyway. Motor ran great, trans shifted fine, car handled nice. We let the car sit for aprox a month, brought it in the garage to install a new battery, do a tune up and clean the car. I figured this would be a good spring and summer driver. Then the nightmare began. We installed the new battery, cleaned the car, went to drive it out and it started but only ran for about 10 seconds. On the second try it almost started but acted like it was out of fuel. I didnt bother with it until the next day. It started instantly, ran for the 10 seconds and wouldnt start again. I figured maybe the fuel pump was acting up or the fuel guage wasnt right. So the next day I put a couple of gallons of fuel in, jacked up the car to tap on the fuel tank to try to jar the fuel pump to kick in. Went to turn the car over and it wouldnt. All lights came on etc but no turn over. I had my son in law come over that night to try and diagnose the problem. He jumped the starter wires and the starter turns over fine, just not turning by the key which worked all the other times until now. He tested all the relays he could find and they checked out ok. He checked the fuse panel in the console and that was fine. He said there were bigger fuses in the trunk area but the key doesnt work the trunk and the power button isnt working for the release. He figures it could be a relay to the starter but doesnt know where its located. Also could be theft deterient lock out. All I know is I dont have time or the patience to deal with this. I got a lot more money in the car then I should so I am going to sell it as is with no reserve and take my lumps. If you are handy at electrical problems or dealing with issues like this then go for it. Only bid if your willing to follow through with the sale.

Cadillac launches ATS-V, CTS-V Crystal White Frost editions

Sun, Oct 18 2015

With power and performance enough to challenge the best that Europe and Japan have to offer, buyers in the luxury performance market shouldn't need much more reason to consider a new Cadillac ATS-V or CTS-V. But to make its fastest models that much more enticing, Cadillac is rolling out the new Crystal White Frost editions you see here. Available on the ATS-V coupe, ATS-V sedan, or CTS-V sedan (pictured), the new Crystal White Frost Edition models feature unique matte-finish white paint. They also get special wheels and the Carbon Fiber and Luxury packages as standard. Other equipment like Recaro buckets and microfiber-trimmed control surfaces are also available, among other options. GM's luxury division will only make 99 examples available across the three models – 39 ATS-V coupes, 31 ATS-V sedans, and 29 CTS-V sedans. So if you want to get your hands on one, you may have to act faster than these forced-induction performance machines will muscle their way around the track. Prices start at $71,460 for the smaller sedan and extend up to $94,900 for the larger one Â– those prices including destination but not taxes, registration, and other fees. For a full rundown of the equipment included and available, scope out the detailed press release below.

Cadillac ATS Coupe headed for Detroit reveal

Mon, 25 Nov 2013

Cadillac wouldn't be Cadillac without its two-door models. But the XLR has been discontinued for over four years now, the Elmiraj concept may never see production and the future of the CTS Coupe is still up in the air. That leaves just the ELR, which may not be conventional enough for traditional Cadillac coupe buyers. Fortunately a new coupe is coming along to fill the void.
According to Edmunds, Cadillac will reveal the new ATS coupe just a couple of months from now at the Detroit Auto Show. Expected to mechanically mirror the existing ATS sedan, the new coupe will also more conventionally resemble its four-door counterpart than the CTS, whose coupe version was distinguished by a rakishly sloping roofline.
Expect the same choice of engines to carry over, with a 2.5-liter four serving as the base engine, and both a 2.0-liter turbo four and a 3.6-liter V6 offering more power for those looking for that extra bit of oomph. Following the Detroit reveal, sources anticipate the ATS coupe to go on sale next summer.

Cadillac welcomes back Entourage favorite Ari Gold

Mon, May 18 2015

With publicity for the long-awaited Entourage movie ramping up, we're finding that one of the stars of the film happens to be the handsome Cadillac Ciel Concept convertible. It makes a number of appearances in the trailers with Vince, E, Turtle, and Johnny Drama cruising about, despite the fact that it isn't actually a production vehicle. We guess it pays to be Aquaman and Enzo Ferrari. Supporting its tie-in with the flim, Cadillac has enlisted Jeremy Piven, famed for his roll as outrageous, obnoxious, abrasive, and amusing talent agent Ari Gold, to star alongside its droptop sedan. The pair are the focus of a four-minute featurette welcoming the actor's character back while expounding on the series-ending cliffhanger that basically made the movie a sure thing. Take a look at the spot, which was directed and written by Entourage creator Doug Ellin. And be sure to check out the brotastic HBO series when it makes the jump to the big screen on June 3.
