Here in cheerful red and white an  unrestored all original well maintained 1957 Cadillac Coupe Deville. 5% not original are the chrome wire wheels which are off a 1953 Buick Skylark and the chrome trim on the fins were rechromed.   The chrome bumpers are excellent all original. Cadillacs of this era are known for pitting
by the window vents. As in photo mine are perfect and pit free.    Paint is factory original and very good. Some small chips on the doors but no dings and few on top
of fenders (from past servicing) and were touched up. Bias white walls on balanced rims. Also white wall spare on wire wheel, Full factory jack set and lug wrench.

All chrome dash is beautiful and pit free. Headliner perfect. Door panels, carpet, parcel shelf, seats A-1 with no missing buttons, no cuts or rips. Factory white leather. Power windows, seats, trunk,steering, brakes, and antenna working perfectly. Also working tube radio with dual speakers and working clock. Excellent heater. NO AC thank God ..makes servicing engine a lot easier.

Engine has new wires, plugs, points and cap. Compression is good. Runs on regular gas and purrs like a kitten. Dual exhaust and tight with no leaks. Transmission
changes smoothly and brakes excellent including foot brake. Rust free car. New shocks all around and new battery.

Im the 3rd owner. The previous owner of 35 years would remove small chrome parts and clean them with a tooth brush like chrome unit under wipers. Car ALWAYS parked in a insulated garage. There is nothing negative to say except don't wash the car in the sun. The original factory red paint will get water spots on hood and trunk and you will spend rest of the day polishing them out.

Im selling to downsize my car collection. Shipping across Canada is affordable. Shipping to U.S.A. is a bit more costly because $600 aprox for duty and
customs. However I will assist the buyer as best I can. I have more photos just go to questions at bottom of listing.

Payment $1000.00 deposit and balance within 7 days by Paypal or wired bank draft.   My feedback is 100% positive, I just sold my 69 Olds to a buyer in Florida .
  Car is located in Vancouver area of B.C Canada. Car has clear title.

To view this exact Cadillac listed here on YouTube just  type this in search box    VID 00000011 1957 Red Cadillac This was       shot in summer 2013.  Car is leaving
 the Chevron gas station ( note $1.39 litre gas ) and you will hear the motor and transmission doing its job around town. After two minutes I turn on the tube radio. As I proceed home I climb very steep hill. Any clicking is the turn signals. Any bouncing is my Blackberry Tablet camera sitting on dash.
  I have a low reserve. The car is for sale locally so I remove the listing for local buyers HOWEVER ebay rules state listing cannot be pulled once the reserve is met and I will honour it.  This time last year my 1957 Cadillac 4 dr and my 1962 Cadillac Fleetwood both went to Saudi Arabia.

Shipping rate for Canadians MVS Canada seems to have the fairest rate and positive feedback on Facebook. They quoted me Vancouver, B.C. to Montreal, Quebec
$1700. You can get a fast quote from them 1 888 756 7447. I should mention the wipers work too good but would not stop so the vacuum line disconnected . The
 cable and control froze up. A common problem some 57 Caddy's and 58 Buicks. I have like new working cable and control that goes with the car. Since I never
 drive in the rain. Some times I use RainX product which works well.

Cadillac CT6 ushers in new naming convention

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Johan de Nysschen has been at his new post as president of Cadillac for not even three months , but he's already seen two of his most notable accomplishments from his two-year tenure as president of Infiniti matched by Cadillac. The brand has announced that it is relocating its headquarters, and is now officially changing its nomenclature.
The brand's new flagship model will abandon the familiar three-letter designation enjoyed by every other model in the range (aside from the Escalade), and adopt an alpha-numeric title. So, rather than the expected title of LTS, Cadillac's top-end car will be called the CT6.
Of course, this won't be limited to just one model. According to Cadillac's press release, "familiar lettering like 'CT' would be used for car models, with the number indicating the relative size and position of the cars in the hierarchy of Cadillac models." And yes, that means what you think it means - Cadillac will use the exact same naming formula, albeit with different letters, as Infiniti.

Cadillac considering more radical ATS-V

Tue, May 5 2015

Cadillac is stepping up its performance game with the launch of the new ATS-V and CTS-V, but it's not about to rest on the laurels it removed from its own badge. While it's tipped to launch additional V models in the future, the latest word is Caddy could also come out with an even more extreme version of the ATS-V in the near future. According to Car and Driver, the prospect is on the table: "We might have something down the road that is a little bit more aggressive," chief engineer Dave Leone said, while another source pegged its potential arrival for 2017. It's too early to say what would constitute the more extreme model. The magazine points toward the Mercedes-AMG Black Series as an example. Jaguar took a similarly extreme approach with the XKR-S GT, as BMW has with the M3 GTS. As it is, the ATS-V is offered in both coupe and sedan variants with a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 producing 464 horsepower channeled to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual. Cadillac reportedly considered employing a dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive, but went the old-school route to avoid excess weight and (no doubt) cost.

GM to idle car production at five factories as Americans continue CUV love affair

Mon, Dec 19 2016

In case you needed another reminder that Americans have fallen out of love with sedans, General Motors today announced plans to idle five factories in January in a bid to cut its inventory to 70 days. Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly ( Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt and Impala) and Fairfax Assembly in Kansas ( Chevy Malibu) will stop production for three weeks. Lansing Grand River ( Cadillac ATS and CTS, and Chevy Camaro) is going down for two weeks, while Lordstown, OH ( Chevy Cruze) and Bowling Green, KY ( Chevy Corvette) will go idle for a week each, Automotive News reports. GM's shutdown reflects a broader problem with the company's supply – at 847,000 vehicles, the company's supply increased unsteadily from a low of 629,000 units in January of 2016. That's more than a 25 percent increase in the past year. Citing information from Autodata, The Detroit News reports that at the end of November, GM had a 168-day supply of LaCrosses, 177 days' worth of Camaro, 170 days of Corvette, 121 days for Cruze, 119 days for ATS, 132 days for CTS, and 110 days of CT6. Meanwhile, inventory of the company's more popular vehicles is actually below the professionally accepted 60- to 70-day supply, The News reports. The Trax, Colorado pickup, and GM's full-size SUVs are sitting below 50 days and experiencing year-over-year sales increases. GM needs a rethink of its inventory levels, which is something that's apparently coming. "We're going to be responsible in managing our inventory levels," GM spokesman Jim Cain told The News. Another unnamed spokesman told Automotive News the company's day-to-day supplies would "fluctuate before moderating at year-end." But at least one analyst thinks this won't be the last time Detroit needs to stop production to level things out. "Incentives are elevated, residuals are declining, and rates are rising," Brian Johnson, an analyst with Barclays, told The News. "And while GM in particular may benefit in the months ahead from new product launches, it's important to recognize that GM's inventory is elevated at the moment, and it wouldn't surprise us if they need to announce another production cut – which could pressure the stock."
