1996 Cadillac Deville Base Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
North Babylon, New York, United States
|
Up for auction is a beautiful 1996 Cadillac DeVille. I am selling this for my parents. They have owned it for around 5 years and have had the car serviced and maintained as required, including the replacement of certain parts. They bought it as a second car but now my dad does not drive as much these days so they only need one car.
This car in this color really stands out. You just don't see many in this color and it has the older, more sought- after Cadillac styling, before they went with the angular styling. Car has plenty of power and the transmission shifts smoothly as if it were new, and the passing gear will really put you back in your seat for a large vehicle. All of the features in this car work, all of the dashboard diagnostic information works. Air Conditioning and heat work excellent as do all the power seats, window, and electric trunk pull down. AC was serviced and the large part in the firewall was replaced (I think it is the condenser). This was a labor intensive job that you don't have to worry about. Also serviced were the brakes and some brake lines were replaced. The alternator was replaced and the tires are in excellent condition. One of them is a blackwall because that particular tire got a flat and they did not have the thin whitewall style in stock. So that is a new blackwall tire and the other three are fairly new whitewalls under three years old with less than 5,000 miles on them in my estimation. Body has no rust and underneath is solid too. Car was garaged so that may be why the body is in such good shape. Owners do not smoke. Interior smells nice, not musty or anything like that. See pictures for rest of the description. Look at the condition of this car. The body and undercarriage seem to defy aging. The body is not perfect and has a few dings, and almost unnoticeable scratches here and there from normal use. There is a mark on the cloth top that I did not try to remove for fear of the color running. Headliner is nice and there is no water leakage inside the vehicle. Car is very quiet inside and glass is perfect. Stereo and cassette player work, though some speakers should be replaced due to their age. I believe this car to have cruise control (I checked that feature in the auction listing) but I am not 100% sure. If it does, I don't think we ever used it. This car likes to be piloted. Issues: This car is my parents' car. It has 82,000 miles on it and runs, looks, and drives great. Just this winter it started leaking a little oil(after sitting for a while since they don't use it in the snow and we've had a lot of snow) which is common for the Northstar engine. I dried the bottom of the motor a few weeks ago and it only dripped a few drops since. Also, if the car is not used for a while, the battery sometimes loses charge (common for these cars and can be easily remedied). The latter is an easy fix and I was going to fix it for them but now they are selling it so the next owner can fix it if desired. The oil leak could be costly (or not) but does not have to be addressed now whatsoever. This car can be used as a regular driver in the condition it is in right now. I have driven it from time to time and it is so comfortable and fun to drive. With the large interior, all occupants are comfortable, unlike some of today's so-called luxury cars that skimp on space. The rear auto leveling works as is should too. Note: Contents in trunk are not part of the auction. I left them in there so you can see how much it holds. If you want to see the car in person, email me and I will coordinate a visit with my parents. Any questions you may have, I will do my best to answer them. If I don't know the answer I will ask may folks and then email you back so I may need a day to get back to you but I will do my best. Note: CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL. SO IF IT SELLS LOCALLY, I WILL END THE AUCTION DUE TO THE CAR BEING SOLD LOCALLY. Bid with Confidence as I have 100% feedback. Buyer sends $400.00 deposit via Paypal only and is responsible for picking up vehicle or making arrangements for vehicle to be picked up after full payment has cleared. Vehicle will not be released until full payment is received and clears. Car is in 11703 location. Car is sold as-is due to age. There is no warranty on this vehicle. |

2013 Cadillac ATS Premium 2.0T 6MT
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The new Cadillac ATS is an impressive sport sedan, often considered one of the most serious threats to the BMW 3 Series. Unlike GM's previous attempts, this four door brings aggressive styling, commendable chassis dynamics and class-leading handling to the highly competitive battle. And, like its daunting German foe, Cadillac offer several powertrain choices.
I recently spent time with the ATS 2.0T Premium on my home California turf. Fitted with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox with a limited-slip rear differential, my tester was lightly optioned, with only a paint upgrade and a cold weather package. That brought the as-tested price to $46,305, configured the way I imagine most enthusiasts would prefer. This meant I fully expected to enjoy a week with a tossable sport sedan that boasted "fun-to-drive" as its middle name, but all was not well...

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
