I have my 2005 Stealth Grey 6 speed CTS-V for sale. The car currently has 123,xxx miles on it. I am the third owner and have owned the car since 11/2012. I have put approximately 7,000 miles on the car, since I have owned it. Since I bought the car, I have performed the following mods and maintenance:


- Changed oil every 3,000 miles
- Flushed coolant
- Machined brake rotors
- Buffed headlghts
- Installed Black OEM Cadillac 18x8.5 wheels with Nitto 555 tires (245/45/18 (f), 275/40/18 (r)). The tires have ~50% tread left
- Installed H&R lowering springs (I have the MM spacers for the rear shocks, but they are not installed)

All this work was performed at AMS performance, where I work. I have complete service records from the 2nd owner which show that the following work has been done to the car:

- Replaced water pump
- Replaced motor mounts

The car is in excellent shape the for miles. The exterior is very clean. There are dime sized paint chips on either side of the grill on the vertical face of the hood as well as some small (1/8" or smaller) chips in the bumper and tops of the fenders. There is a scratch on the right rear quarter panel also. Other than that, the car is very clean. There are no door dings at all, and the paint is in great condition. There is some swirl in the paint, but nothing a good polish won't fix. All of the wipers, mirrors, windows, locks, lights, and defrosters work perfectly. The wheels are powdercoated black and have no imperfections. 

The interior is also in extremely good shape. All of the lights, gauges, seat adjustments, climate controls and other switches work. Some of the paint has started to rub off of the seat memory and sun roof buttons. This is a very common problem for these cars. All the leather is in near perfect condition. There are no stains or tears. The C pillar covers have broken on both sides and now hang down. This again is a very common problem for these cars. The trunk is spotless and has the factory cargo net, which is very convenient. The factory radio/navigation unit has been replaced with a Panosonic radio/CD/navigation touch screen unit. The navigation is very good and the sound quality is great. The unit has a 6" touch screen that flips down to allow CDs to be installed. The mechanism that flips the screen back up is broken, but the screen easily goes back into place if you help it back up. The passenger side airbag light has been on since I bought the car. I have never looked into the issue.

Mechanically the car is in near perfect shape. The differential doesn't whine at all (big problem on these cars), the g-meter didn't read over 1g in either direction when I purchased the car from the second owner and the front brake calipers are still silver (meaning the car has never been on a road track). The clutch engages without any issues, and the car tracks straight. The car pulls like it should under WOT, and the brakes engage with a firm pedal and no vibrations.

I am selling the car because I am moving to Atlanta at the end of July and I will no longer need two cars. I am asking $14k OBO. Please call or text at 615-579-5873. The car is located in the loop, but I work in West Chicago, so I can meet anywhere along 290, 55, or 90 between West Chicago and the loop after 5pm.

Cadillac XTS to become Opel flagship sedan?

Tue, 24 Jul 2012

According to Auto-News.de, Opel is considering using Cadillac's all-new big sedan, the XTS, as the base for its new flagship car, which would likely carry the name Omega.
WorldCarFans.com speculates that Opel could use GM's 3.6-liter direct-injection V6 that generates 304 horsepower or, possibly, a 2.8-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that creates 321 horsepower to power the vehicle. The European automaker could even use a 195-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine in this application - fine, since many of Europe's largest sedans are powered by smaller, more efficient engines.
Regardless of power, the Omega could arrive at dealerships by the end of 2013.

2014 Cadillac ELR wears a suave suit with Volt underpants

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

The Cadillac design and engineering teams were smiling like a bunch of proud papas here in Detroit this morning, as the Wreath and Crest crew pulled the curtain back on their 2014 ELR. The house was packed for the ELR's coming out party, and reaction was enthusiastic amongst the murmuring media, as far as we could gather, while the flashes were firing.
In fact, we think that the sleek styling and aggressive proportions of the Voltec-powered ELR looked even better in the metal than they did in the first official images we saw earlier. Further, the leather-lined interior seems custom made for serious driving, even if the ELR is slightly less than rocket-ship quick.
The new Cadillac makes good use of the basic running gear from the Chevrolet Volt, including the 1.4-liter range-extending gas engine, a 15.6-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, and an electric drive motor that offers 295 pound-feet of torque, and a total system output of 207 horsepower. All-electric range is down by just one mile versus its Chevrolet forebearer, for a total of 35, and Cadillac speculates that the total range with the gasoline generator figured in will top 300 miles.
