WOW, what a surprising car. A Cadillac with a Corvette heart. The Cadillac CTS-V was and still is the ultimate 4 door sports car. This car has the 405 horsepower LS6 Corvette motor from the factory. This is the exact same motor as the Z06 Corvettes. GM backed the motor up with a 6 speed manual transmission, full independent rear suspension and Brembo brakes on all 4 corners. GM even included a g force meter in the instrumentation (see photo). These cars sold new for almost $60,000 in 2005. My wife calls it our 4 dr. Corvette. ( we also have 2 older corvettes) The car is absolutely loaded. Power Moon Roof, AM/FM/Satellite/6CD CD Changer/Navigation, Power everything. I have added Magnaflow exhaust, K&N FIPK cold air intake and a programmer. I have all of the original components to go with the car. I am the second owner and I have owned it since March 2009. The car is in impeccable condition. All original paint with only two minor imperfections, 1 door ding (see photo) and the paint shows cracks on the rear bumper in one spot (see photo). The front bumper, hood, mirrors, ect. have no stone chips. This car is as clean as a 2013. I have always garaged the car and did not drive it in bad weather (snow). The interior looks almost like a new car. It has leather seating with suede centers and white piping. No tears or rips anywhere. The car has always been hand washed by me, fortunately my barn is heated and insulated, making it easy to wash a car anytime. I have always used Mobil1 oil in the car. Last summer I replaced the radiator (noticed it leaking during an oil change). While I had the radiator out, I replaced all of the hoses including the heater hoses, replaced the thermostat, belts, idler pulleys, etc. Has all of the original manuals with it, owners manual, OnStar manuals and disk, navigation manuals and disk, original leather case with Cadillac note pad. The tires are still in good condition and are the same ones that were on it when I bought the car. The car it had roughly 128 thousand miles on it when I bought it, shortly there after the electronic odometer quit working, all other gages worked fine, so I didn't worry about it. I did just replace it so that new owner wouldn't have to worry about it, but I have no idea how many miles I have put on it, well less that the life of the tires, therefore I'm selling it miles unknown. The motor runs excellent with 42 psi oil pressure idling, everything on the car works as if it were new. The only exception is over time 3 of the tire pressure monitors have quit working, planned on replacing them when it needed new tires, just doesn't need any yet. Look the pictures over, you will see that this car is in very good condition and a blast to drive. I have set the reserve low since I recently lost my job and would be better off with the money in the bank. I described the car to the best of my abilities, but I'm sure I missed a thing or two. So, if you have any questions, please ask them, I encourage coming and looking at the car, you will be surprised as to how nice it is. I did add a mini receiver type of trailer hitch a couple of years ago. I only pulled a small open motorcycle trailer with my motorcycle on it once. I didn't like my bike being exposed to the elements, decided I'd rather use my truck with an enclosed trailer and spend a little extra on gas. My apologies for jumping around with the description stuff, just listed the information as it hit me.
Now for the legal stuff, selling as-is, where-is, how-is, no warranties expressed or implied. All descriptions are my opinion, yours may vary.

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

Cadillac tipped to call flagship something other than LTS
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Cadillac wouldn't be Cadillac without large sedans in its lineup, and while the XTS has had to hold down that end of the fort all on its own, it won't have to for too long. That's because the luxury brand in the General Motors portfolio is preparing to roll out its new LTS, stylistically previewed by the Elmiraj concept pictured above. Only now, the latest thinking is that the upcoming flagship model may not be called LTS at all.
As Automotive News points out, Cadillac's naming scheme is all over the place at the moment. The ATS slotting below the CTS makes sense (alphabetically), but where do the ELR, SRX and especially the Escalade fit into that naming hierarchy? And how would LTS - as the project has been known until now - sit above the XTS?
Fortunately, Cadillac may be on the case, as two of the division's most recent senior appointments seem keen to rationalize the naming scheme. One is Uwe Ellinghaus, who joined Cadillac as chief marketing officer late last year. Speaking of the brand's nomenclature last spring, Ellinghaus was quoted as saying, "We are aware that this is currently a weakness of the Cadillac brand." And his new boss is bound to agree.
2013 Cadillac XTS [w/video]
Wed, 30 Jan 2013The Cadillac Of Stopgaps
As confusing as most alphanumeric car names have gotten in recent years, at least one constant has been that the letter "X" is generally indicative of a crossover. Then why did General Motors use this letter on its new 2013 Cadillac XTS luxury sedan? Well, for that, we'll have to look to the world of mathematics where "X" stands for an unknown variable or a placeholder. Now we're talking. The XTS is just an interim product sitting at the top of Cadillac's four-door food chain until the brand gets a true flagship in place. That sounds like a lot of resources to spend on what will likely be a one-and-done model, but the automaker needed to get something - anything - to replace the DTS.
So here you have the 2013 XTS. A big luxury sedan that was created to bridge the gap between Cadillac's recent past and its pending future. Going into our week with this XTS knowing that it was a stopgap measure proved to be both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, we know (or hope) that this car will act as a baseline for future high-end Cadillac models, but at the same time, we couldn't help but be mindful of past stopgap models, albeit in more entry-level segments, like the Cimarron and Catera.
