WHAT MATTERS:

Exceptionally RARE and BEAUTIFUL car!  My wife and I are the first owners of this vehicle and we affectionately refer to her as "Bella".  She is a beauty.  We did a nationwide search for this car to find a CTS loaded up with all the goodies, be black or red, AND have a MANUAL transmission.  My wife and I both love to actually drive a car... and if you are still reading this, you probably know exactly what we are talking about... driving a stick!   So we were elated when we found one... and I mean ONE in the entire COUNTRY that had the navigation package and a stick!  To top things off, it was here in the DFW metroplex where we live!  We had to drive to Atlanta for our last luxury car with a stick!  

We bought Bella as a certified pre-owned vehicle, but she came from the Cadillac Executive Program, so she had never been titled.  The bonus here is that we got a 6 year, 100,000 mile (very similar to a bumper to bumper) warranty that is completely transferrable!!!!  You can purchase this vehicle with absolutely, positively no worries!  Bella has never been hit or involved in any kind of accident.  She has had all scheduled maintenance and has had the oil changed every 3-5 thousand miles (synthetic oil) throughout her life.  Only certified Cadillac service technicians have ever touched her mechanically.

WHY ARE WE SELLING?

The only reason we are selling Bella is... and you won't hear this everyday folks... is that we needed a car to put a lot of miles on to travel to... cat shows!  We have two very exotic kitties and plan to have more and we show them every chance we get.  I've included a pic or our babies as well just for fun.  Anyways, I couldn't justify putting all those miles on Bella, so we got a much less expensive gas sipper to get us around for the next few years, but have to part with a car that we absolutely LOVE... Our beloved Bella.

CONDITION:

MECHANICAL:

Perfect working condition.  Everything still under warranty.  Engine, transmission, electronics... everything... perfect working order.  Recently had new front brakes and new Michelin tires put on all 4 wheels.

INTERIOR:

The overall condition of the interior is IMMACULATE.  PERFECT.  GORGEOUS.  TRUE LUXURY.  Check the pictures... Bella is pretty much flawless inside.  For those worried about a black car with black leather... DON'T... She has air conditioned seats.  The leather is in perfect condition.  Everything works perfectly.  Best of all, it's still under warranty!  Bella has every factory option available except a sunroof.  Navigation, dual climate control, ventilated and heated seats, xenon headlights, automatic headlights, etc, etc, etc... The list goes on and on... She is LOADED and in PERFECT condition!

EXTERIOR:

Mirror finish Black Raven paint... washed and waxed routinely.  Overall, still a beautiful car, but being black in Texas on our roads will cause some blemishes.  Please note that you are not buying a new car.  That being said, I will try to describe all I can, but please check the pics.  If you want additional pics, please let me know.  First, there are rock chips... very fine... not major... but they are there on the nose of the car as well as the lower quarter panels.  The rock chips on the lower quarter panels were put there by a Caddy Exec and existed when we bought her, just fyi. On the front right driver side quarter panel, there is a scratch from where a temporary stop sign fell over on the car.  Not a major scratch, but I thought I'd point it out.  On the Driver side rear quarter panel, just in front of the rear tire, there is a blemish that happened at the DFW airport covered parking.  Evidently, they were cleaning with some kind of chemicals or acid on the level above, and liquid dripped onto the spot.  It has been buffed, compounded, and everything else, but it won't come out.  Again, not major, but a hickey to point out.  On the passenger side rear quarter panel, just before the gas cap, there is the only door ding on the car.  On the front driver side wheel, there are some spots where red hot brake juice from a broken brake line bled onto the wheel and corroded the polished aluminum finish.  This happened the first week we owned the car, and I should have made them replace the wheel, but I didn't.  My bad, but not a real eye sore.

That's really about it that I can see and/or think of.  Again, the car has NEVER been hit in any way.  She is absolutely stunning when clean.  You can see the mirror shine and finish even in blemish photos.  Bella would make a beautiful addition to any home.

OVERALL:  

You can rate this extremely rare and special vehicle however you like, but I would rate her as a 9 out of 10.  Pictures and facts don't lie.  Covered under warranty... perfect interior... and still a really, really pretty girl who runs hard, fast, and precise.  Driver's Wanted for this RARE vehicle!!!  You will not find many of these vehicles, if any, in the entire country.  Whomever is fortunate enough to win our Bella, please take care of this beautiful girl...

Payment in full expected within 3 days.  No games, no hassles... Straight seller looking for a straight buyer.  If you have ANY questions at all, PLEASE let me know.  Good luck stick lovers...

GM Super Cruise beats Tesla Autopilot again in latest hands-free test

Wed, Oct 28 2020

DETROIT — General Motors' Super Cruise once again edged Tesla's Autopilot in an evaluation of 17 vehicles equipped with active driving assistance systems (ADAS) by Consumer Reports, the testing organization said on Wednesday. A Tesla Model Y fitted with Autopilot finished "a distant second," the group said, to a Cadillac CT6 equipped with Super Cruise, which GM is rolling out to more than 20 vehicles — including its new Hummer electric pickup truck — over the next three years. Safety and insurance researchers have frequently warned of the risks of consumers overestimating ADAS systems' abilities, a misconception increased by some automakers calling their products Autopilot, ProPilot or Co-Pilot. In 2018, the Cadillac CT6 with Super Cruise scored higher than a Tesla Model 3 with Autopilot, in a Consumer Reports test of just four vehicles equipped with ADAS. In the latest test, conducted this summer on a track and on public roads, the Cadillac scored 69 points out of a possible 100, while the Tesla scored 57. A Lincoln Corsair equipped with Ford's Co-Pilot 360 system, finished third with 52. The critical difference in the Super Cruise system is a driver-facing infrared camera to make sure he or she is paying attention to the road and is ready to take over manual control when necessary, said Kelly Funkhouser, head of connected and automated vehicle testing at Consumer Reports. The group noted that Autopilot can shut off abruptly in some situations, while Super Cruise did a better job of notifying the driver when the system is disengaging. In recent European safety testing, a Tesla Model 3 with Autopilot placed sixth out of 10 systems, getting high marks for performance and ability to respond to emergencies, but falling short on its ability to maintain a driverÂ’s focus on the road.

Autoblog's ultimate holiday rides

Tue, Dec 16 2014

Over the hills and through the woods, it's the time of year when many of us visit family and friends for the holidays. But getting there can be a chore. It's cold and snowy across much of the United States, and even if the climate is favorable, the drive to grandmother's house often is not. Think back to holiday road trips of yore: They probably included crying babies, antsy children, hungover adults and frequent bathrooms stops all around. Now, we're all at different life stages here at Autoblog, and the perfect car for one staffer might be as useful as a team of Budweiser Clydesdales to another. Some of us bounce from family event to family event with children and a labrador in tow, while others prefer a quieter, simpler holiday. But whatever the endeavor, we all need wheels. With that in mind, here is the unofficial Autoblog list of the ultimate cars in which to tackle the holiday season. 2015 Ferrari FF To borrow a chestnut from Top Gear presenter James May, "As you'd expect, I've done this properly." That oddly voluptuous ruby bolide in the photo above? It's a 2015 Ferrari FF – all 652 all-wheel-driven horsepower of it. What makes a Ferrari the ideal for holiday time in PaukertLand? My Midwestern winter breaks are wonderful, but they're typically frenetic and slushy, involving a lot of schlepping from house to house and even city to city, not to mention inevitable last-minute runs for forgotten presents and dinner ingredients. Needless to say, a powerful V12 is a welcome ally for such duties. And this one isn't just a friend when the road is clear. The FF has been gifted Ferrari's novel 4RM AWD system, and despite sitting lower to the ground than, say, an SUV, it's a pretty effective tool for real winter driving, especially when outfitted with a set of snow tires. Unlike other Ferraris, it's also a rather practical thing, with legitimate seating for four adults and 15.9 cubic feet of cargo space – that's precisely as much room as a Mercedes E-Class – and you can fold the rear chairs and cram 28.2 cubes-worth of holiday cheer in the back. Okay, so it's far from cheap and fuel economy isn't that great, but who cares? Just drop a paddle-shifted gear or two, bury the throttle and Repeat The Sounding Joy. Ain't the holidays grand? – Chris Paukert Executive Editor 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe My Mom gives out more presents than any other human being I've ever encountered.

First Cadillac ELR rolls off the line

Thu, 30 May 2013

Gearing up for the Belle Isle Grand Prix this weekend, General Motors invited some of the Chevrolet and Cadillac racecar drivers out to its Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. While there, the racers - including IndyCar Driver and Chevrolet Volt owner, Simona De Silvestro - witnessed the very first 2014 Cadillac ELR to roll off the assembly line.
These vehicles are not destined for customers, however, but instead pre-production units will be used by engineers for testing purposes. Actual production of ELR consumer models is expected to commence closer to the end of this year. As a refresher, this range-extended electric Cadillac shares much of its powertrain with the Volt but will have a sportier coupe design inspired by the Converj Concept. De Silvestro manged to snap a few images of here own, which you can see in the gallery below.
