This auction is for a super clean, all original, low mileage 1975 Cadillac Coupe DeVille with only 19292 miles on it! This beauty was used for 1 year until the warranty expired, from then on it was garaged and only taken out for shows. This is by far the cleanest all original car that I've ever come across...everything except the gasoline, the oils/etc, and possibly the battery are all original...even the tires! The car was owned by a supervisor at the Fisher Body plant in West Mifflin Pa and was babied since it was new. Since this was a bosses car, it rec'd top rate detail when brought in. This beauty has never been in any type of wreck or collision and runs like a top...all 500 Cubic Inches of it! The white leather interior is in super condition with no age cracks or splits and no yellowing at all...it still smells new. The dash is in perfect shape and you can hear the old school mechanical clock running when the car is turned off. The car has no corrosion or damage of any type, with the exception of two paint blisters (about the size of a dime) where the Landau roof meets the car body on the passenger's side. These were not there when the photos were taken but were discovered when the car was examined about two months ago. The only issues I saw concerned the rear right tail light trip (which is loose) but a spare is included. There is also a small crack in the plastic in the back corner of the bumper near the right tail light...it appears to be a typical plastic age crack, but pictures of it are included. The two teflon sleeves on the door closers will need replaced (not unusual for these to crack and fall off) and the drivers side high beam light adjuster will need replaced as the light looks a bit downward...a very small fix. The window on the passenger's side works properly, but since there is no frame for the window to fit into, the window doesn't always line up when it is closed with the door open...it work perfectly when the door is closed. The engine is a massive 500 CI monster that runs like it was new and the car runs on unleaded gasoline. The tires are original and still in very nice shape but the beginnings of some dry cracking is notable if it is looked at closely...the spare is a full sized spare and has never been removed from the massive trunk. New tires will be needed as the current tires are a bit too old for my liking, although they still hold and keep air. The trunk is big enough to hold a full set of luggage and still have a lot of room left over...it is huge! The car has a white vinyl or leather landau style roof with the front of the roof being painted the same forest green. The chrome on the car is in super shape with no pitting or corrosion...even the front grille is in great shape. I had difficulties getting the hood to open as the release cable feels like it has hung up and I had to open the hood from underneath. The hood is currently open and I put some penetrating oil down the release cable, but I am reluctant to close it again in the event the cable doesn't have enough working space to open the latch (it was very close to opening, but needed about 1/2 inch to open freely. There are no real problems with the original forest green paint and there really isn't any stone chips (with one exception, which is on the corner of the hood and shown in one of the pictures) or road caused issues...the paint is still very deep and glossy. The car has been taken care of better than most babies...this car must be seen to be fully appreciated...it is immaculate. The car is kept indoors and under a car cover...please look at the photos to get a better idea of the super shape this beauty is still in...you will have to wait a looong time to find a car in better condition and with less mileage. While this Cadillac is in great shape, please keep in mind that this is all original and hasn't been restored or worked on at all. I have listed all of the problems that I am aware of and will update any issues that I find. The car is nice, but it is NOT a new vehicle and is bound to have some small issues that have gone un-noticed or un-detected, but I have listed as many of them as I am aware of. The title is clear but, unfortunately, will be listed as a duplicate title due to a previous sale that wasn't completed but had writing on it...I don't think the title will xfer with this incorrect information written on it, so I will need to contact the Pa DMV to get a new title issued. I apologize for this as I know most collectors dislike duplicate titles but it was done before the sale was finalized and can't be fixed...I will pay for the cost of the new title. This car can be shipped to you or picked up in the Pittsburgh, Pa area. Please, no scammers or rip-offs...I'm too busy to play your games. Payment will be accepted via a certified check, money order, wire transfer, or even personal checks (I don't think Paypal goes this high)...but before the car leaves my possession the funds must clear the bank...no exceptions! The car had the original title and I will include this with the sale. The original Cadillac owner's manual is not in the glovebox...I don't have it and it wasn't in the car when I bought it. There are current plates on the car presently, but there were Antique Plates on it when I purchased it. Please feel free to contact me with any questions!!

GM To Offer Car That Will Almost Drive Itself
Mon, Sep 8 2014Cars that can talk to each other and almost drive themselves at freeway speeds are just two years away from the showroom, according to General Motors executives. The company announced Sunday that the semi-autonomous system for freeways will be an option on an unidentified new 2017 Cadillac that goes on sale in the summer of 2016. In addition, another 2017 Cadillac, the CTS, will be equipped with radio transmitters and receivers that will let it communicate with other cars, sharing data such as location, speed and whether the driver is applying the brakes. The announcements were made Sunday at the opening of the Intelligent Transportation Society World Congress being held in Detroit this week. They are part of a barrage of similar declarations that are expected from other companies throughout the week as the industry shows off progress toward self-driving and safer cars. The freeway system, dubbed "Super Cruise," uses cameras and radar to keep the car in the center of a lane and also stay a safe distance behind cars in front of it. The system will bring the car to a complete stop if traffic halts without driver action, and it can keep the car going in stop-and-go traffic. Other automakers, such as Mercedes-Benz, now offer similar systems that work at low speeds, but GM says it's the first to announce a system that operates at highway speeds. Others could have freeway systems in two years, though. "If the mood strikes you on the high-speed road from Barstow, California, to Las Vegas, you can take a break from the wheel and pedals and let the car do the work," CEO Mary Barra said in remarks prepared for the conference's keynote address on Sunday. But GM said the car still won't drive itself, and the company is working on a system to monitor drivers to make sure they're still paying attention. Details of that system weren't released. "Sensing technology is not yet to the point where the driver can check out," said John Capp, GM's director of global safety strategy. "This is a level of automation that can be done, that is feasible." The new Cadillac that will get Super Cruise hasn't been officially announced yet. But executives have hinted that GM will build a big rear-drive Caddy to lead its lineup in the coming years. Also Sunday, the Michigan Department of Transportation announced that it will partner with GM, Ford Motor Co.
2015 Cadillac Escalade blings its way into LA
Thu, 21 Nov 2013The new Cadillac Escalade sauntered out onto the Los Angeles Auto Show stage, showing off its new familial face and redesigned interior. That exterior, with its slim, wrap-over headlights and tall, vertical taillights (both made up of LEDs) is a subtle but significant departure from the past styling of General Motors' flagship SUV.
And while there's no shortage of stuff to discuss about the Caddy's exterior, its cabin is where the big changes happen. Aside from the column-mounted shifter, the cabin receives a heavy going-over, receiving Cadillac's new CUE infotainment system and a significant upgrade to the materials. Comparing it to furniture, Eric Clough, Cadillac's director of design for interiors, said, "An exceptional level of craftsmanship has gone into the redesign of the 2015 Cadillac Escalade, and it all centers on the premium materials and extensive use of cut-and-sew live stitching."
Under hood sits a 420-horsepower, 460-pound-foot, 6.2-liter V8. Fitted with direct injection and active fuel management, fuel economy for the big Escalade should get a much-needed boost beyond the current model's 14-city and 18-highway miles per gallon, although official numbers haven't been published quite yet. A six-speed automatic is the sole gearbox choice. Cadillac has also fitted the new Escalade with GM's magnetic ride control system, which should deliver a more refined ride than its predecessor.
Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
