 Greetings,

You are bidding on a 1982 Cadillac Sedan DeVille with 21,700 original miles. This has been a one family owned car since it was bought new from the Cadillac Dealer here in North Central Ohio. This car was garage kept, never saw snow and seldom saw rain. The story goes that it was only driven to church and to special occasions that required the status of showing up in style, and this car certainly fits the bill. Everything works to the best of my knowledge, and the a/c still blows cold. The interior is spotless, with no stains, marks, rips, tears or wear showing in the seats, carpet or door panels. It looks new inside.

The car came standard with power windows, power locks, power 60/40 seats with center armrests both front and back, power brakes, cruise control, tilt & telescoping steering wheel, am/fm cassette, automatic climate control, and headlights, adjustable mirrors, Delayed wipers, and many other options available at the time.    

The outside is in the same condition, with the chrome shining like new, and the paint needing nothing but a touch-up to take care of a scratch or two. The fender fillers are in need of replacement as all of these old cars do. But, I have obtained new ones, and painted them to match. They just need to be put on. You'll want to do something to the old girl, so I left these to the new owner. I will also provide extra matching paint for any mishaps in the future.

The car runs well, given the fact that it wasn't driven much since 2005. The check engine light flutters on and off at a idle, but goes out quickly under power. I believe it will clear itself of this problem the more it is driven. The tires are the originals, but show good tread. It is nice to open a hood of a car this old and find it to be just as nice as the rest of the vehicle. Nothing under the hood shows of excessive wear and tear. It is mileage appropriate.

The title is clean, it is NOT a salvage title, and the mileage stated on the title is State of Ohio correct. The title is marked with a mileage discrepancy only because when it was transferred from the parents to the daughter during the settling of the families estate, they guessed at the mileage instead of looking to make sure of what it actually was. They guessed higher than the original miles on the car, and the old title reflected that. I have a copy of the old title to accompany the new one for anyone wishing to verify it, and the new title reflects the actual mileage on the vehicle.

In closing, this car is one that time has been good too. It was well maintained and kept looking good for the past thirty plus years. You can go to car shows and look at the ones that have been restored and look at the ones that are all original and show only few miles. It is hard to beat getting a piece of history that is as nice today as it was new from the factory. Even the floor mats are in great if not like new shape. I would love to keep this car myself, and hold on to it for another twenty years. It is hard telling what a Cadillac of this condition will be worth in its fifties. But, I do need to find this car the right new owner. One that appreciates a classic and gives it the respect it deserves. 

Please feel free to call with any questions, or concerns. I want you to be happy with you purchase.

Cadillac to fight Audi A3, Mercedes CLA with small rear-drive sedan?

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Compact luxury sedans are fast becoming the trend among upscale automakers. Mercedes has the new CLA (and its many platform-mates), BMW has the 1 Series and 2 Series, Audi has the A3 and, though Lexus apparently isn't interested in anything smaller than its CT 200h, Infiniti is getting in on the action with a compact model of its own. It would only follow logically, then, that Cadillac should launch a competitor, and according to the latest reports, that's just what it has in store.
Speaking with Car and Driver, Cadillac marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus confirmed that such a project is in the works. But unlike its rivals, Cadillac aims to go with a rear-wheel-drive layout. This despite research that apparently indicates that a surprising 80 percent of owners think that their BMW 1 Series is front-drive. It's the driving dynamics and styling proportions that motivate Ellinghaus and his colleagues to stick with rear-drive, however.
The new model would in all likelihood be based on the same GM Alpha architecture that underpins the ATS and CTS - a platform that has helped Cadillac keep the weight down on both models and which is expected to underpin the next-generation Chevy Camaro, as well. The sub-ATS could be positioned as a four-door 2+2, however, as the ATS grows a little larger in its next iteration in order to make room for its new baby brother.

GM announces 6 recalls covering nearly 720k cars

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

General Motors has announced yet another sprawling recall campaign, with six separate elements covering 717,950 vehicles on US roads. At this point in 2014, it's starting to seem like there are more days with a GM recall than without. Perhaps most troubling about this latest volley, though, is that every vehicle is from the past few years, indicating that GM's quality woes may not be limited to pre-bankruptcy vehicles.
The largest element of this latest campaign covers 414,333 units, and includes the 2011 to 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 2010 to 2012 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac SRX and the 2011 to 2012 Buick Regal and LaCrosse. Only vehicles with powered, height-adjustable seats are covered. In these particular cars and crossovers, the bolt that secures the height adjuster actuator may loosen of its own accord and in some cases fall out completely. If this happens, the seats will be able to move both up and down. GM claims the vehicles are safe to drive, provided drivers don't vertically adjust their seats. This particular issue has caused one crash and three injuries.

GM cutting vehicle trim options to save money for electrification

Sun, Mar 1 2020

Information continues to filter out about GM's plans based on comments the automaker made during its Capital Markets Day event in February. GM President Mark Reuss said the company's push to save money by rationalizing the number of build combinations will continue in 2020, carrying on the work done in 2019. As GM Authority covers, last year, the carmaker cut 3,500 components across model lines, a 12% drop in the number of parts it needed to stock in its plants. Reuss used the next-generation Chevolet Equinox and GMC Terrain as examples for more cost efficiencies, saying build possibilities — which include international markets and their options — will be cut by more than 50%, and use more shared parts. "We will reduce total trim levels on Equinox and Terrain from eight to six," Reuss said, "reduce engine variants from 11 to 5, reduce build combinations from more than 200 to less than 100 per program, and see significant cost savings of an already paid-for architecture that took the mass out, helping us self-fund electrification programs." GM will plow a large amount of the money it saves into its ambitious EV program. In 2017, the automaker said it intends to have 20 electric vehicles on the market by the end of 2023, some of which could be shared between brands. An automotive analyst at Seeking Alpha and a piece in Automobile attempted to put specifics to what we should expect. As Automobile points out, the first two EVs in the 20-car program are already on sale, being the Ariv Meld and Ariv Merge eBikes available in Belgium and The Netherlands. We've seen the Cruise Origin autonomous rideshare taxi, although we don't know when it will hit the road. The next three, which we should see in the metal shortly, are two Cadillac EVs and the GMC Hummer EV pickup. The Cadillac pair are expected to be sized like the XT4 and XT5, and along with the Hummer, should hit the market starting in late 2021.
