I'm here listing my 97 Cadillac DeVille, that I recently acquired. More than I'd care to deal with right now, being a full time college student.


The good:

1) Starts and drives well. All the lights light up, inside and out.

3) The car has power EVERYTHING. Mirrors, windows (all the windows go up and down with no problem including the sun roof), locks (remote entry), seat (both seats move forward and back, up and down just the way they should), radio works, 6 disk cd player (I'm sure it works, but no way to tell for sure, no cartridge in it).

2) The exterior of the vehicle is in good condition (it just needs a good scrubbing), few dings and dents but it is a 16 year old car, what do you expect? Inside the car is okay, black leather a little worn, but again good for it's age.

3) Since purchasing the car I've had the radiator, thermostat, oil switch, and serpentine belt tensioner replaced. Also it has had an oil change and a coolant system flush (I have all the shop receipts for the repairs).

The bad:

1) Car could use a new set of brake pads, not a big deal (rotors are still good, had them inspected and have the paper work to prove it).

2) The odometer needs to be replaced as well as the glove box latch (the parts can be easily acquired through eBay, and wouldn't be difficult to install). The air bag, oil pressure, check engine, etc still work, but no speed or milage info is displayed. The side areas that track MPG and the temp control displays work. (The car was last registered in 2012 and registered with 90,000 miles).

3) The A/C works great, nice and cold, but only blows from the defroster panel (I live in Arizona, it seriously cools the car just fine).

4) Lastly, the car overheats after driving about ten or fifteen miles. I've had a shop look into it and they don't know what the problem is. They said it may be the head gasket, but the don't know for sure. (The first time they did a block test it was fine, and the second time the test was "inconclusive").


With a little love this car would could be great again, and if not it could be easily used as a parts car since everything is mostly in good condition.

Fell free to ask any questions, I'll answer as quickly as possible.

*Car is sold as is, buyer IS responsible for pick up, and don't bid if you don't plan to pay.

2016 Cadillac ATS-V blasts into LA

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

The first details about the 2016 Cadillac ATS-V recently hit the web ahead of the official debut at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Now, the latest model to wear Caddy's high-performance V moniker is officially official, and the specs are even better than initial rumors suggested.
The latest figures actually give the ATS-V a hair more power than first believed, with 455 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque pumping out of the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6. With a standard electronic limited-slip differential keeping rear wheels in check, Cadillac claims that the model sprints to 60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 185 mph. Buyers have two transmission choices that both offer launch control: a six-speed manual featuring Active Rev Match and no-lift shifting, or an eight-speed automatic.
Thoroughly revised suspension and braking systems should also mean that the ATS-V excels at more than just going in a straight line. The chassis itself receives extra bracing to boost overall stiffness by 25 percent over lesser ATS models. On top of that, a host of suspension upgrades front and rear, including third-generation Magnetic Ride Control dampers, mean quicker steering response and a tighter ride. Plus, Brembo six-piston calipers up front and four-pistons in the rear should bring rapid deceleration. To tune it all to the driver's whim, the Performance Traction Management system gives five settings to choose from for stability and traction control.

2014 Cadillac ELR is making green sexy in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013


In terms of styling, inside and out, the ELR hits the ball out of the park.
Cadillac has pulled the wraps off of its newest family member, the long-rumored, Voltec-powered, eye-catching extended range hybrid coupe called the ELR. The car makes use of the same basic architecture as the Chevrolet Volt, but has been thoroughly layered on with design, technology and performance tuning - with the goal of being a properly situated product for the Cadillac brand.
