Have you ever dreamed of
discovering a car that was tucked away in a garage and forgotten? That happened
to me when I found this beautiful 1979 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz. This was my
elderly neighbor’s car that she purchased new at a local dealership. She drove
it only during the warmer months, and then parked it inside her garage while
she drove her AWD Mercedes in the winter. In 1994 she moved to I can go on and on about the superior
condition of the Cadillac, but I’m running out of text space. It is offered at
no reserve; however I express the right to sell it locally, so it is subject to
availability. Inspections are welcomed and recommended but I would be
astonished if an inspector found anything of consequence. If you require more
information, please reply to the ad with your phone number and I will reply as
soon as possible. Thank you for considering my vehicle. On Oct-28-13 at 14:26:35 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to add a few things. The paint has some minor scratches but not easily noticed. Just above the driver's rear tire molding is a dent about the size of a quarter that has some surface rust. I'd rate the body and paint at 8.5-9 out of 10.
The rubber seals around the windows and doors are still soft and pliable. I ran it through a carwash just before taking pictures and there was not one drop of water that got inside the car.I have driven it 70 MPH on the highway and there is very little wind noise. The cabin is very quiet and comfortable. All the glass is completely scratch and chip free. The window motors are smooth and strong. It's not an exaggeration to say the interior smells like a new car when you open the doors. There are no rattles or squeaks when driving over railroad tracks. This car is in unbelievable condition. I have all the original manuals. Spare has never been removed from the trunk. Bumpers are perfect with no dings or pitting. I think you can see where I am going with this! |

GM seeks national mandate for zero-emissions cars
Fri, Oct 26 2018DETROIT — General Motors says it will ask the federal government for one national gas mileage standard, including a requirement that a percentage of auto companies' sales be zero-emissions vehicles. Mark Reuss, GM's executive vice president of product development, said the company will propose that a certain percentage of nationwide sales be made up of vehicles that run on electricity or hydrogen fuel cells. GM says a nationwide program modeled on such a requirement in California could result in 7 million electric vehicles, or EVs, on U.S. roads by 2030. California wants 15.4 percent of vehicle sales by 2025 to be EVs or other zero emission vehicles. Nine other states, including Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, have adopted those requirements. In January, California Governor Jerry Brown set a target of 5 million zero-emission vehicles in California by 2030. The Trump administration criticizes California's ZEV mandate, saying it requires automakers to spend tens of billions of dollars developing vehicles that most consumers do not want, only to sell them at a loss. Reuss told reporters that governments and industries in Asia and Europe "are working together to enact policies now to hasten the shift to an all-electric future. It's very simple: America has the opportunity to lead in the technologies of the future." A national mandate also would create jobs and reduce fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and "make EVs more affordable," Reuss added. GM, the nation's largest automaker, will spell out the request Friday in written comments on a Trump administration proposal to roll back Obama-era fuel economy and emissions standards, freezing them at 2020 levels instead of gradually making them tougher. Under a regulation finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency at the end of the Obama administration, the fleet of new automobiles would have to get 36 miles per gallon by 2025, 10 mpg higher than the current requirement. But the Trump administration's preferred plan is to freeze the standards starting in 2021. Administration officials say waiving the tougher fuel efficiency requirements would make vehicles more affordable, which would get safer cars into consumer hands more quickly. GM on Thursday said it doesn't support the freeze, but wants flexibility to deal with consumers' shift from cars to less-efficient SUVs and trucks.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
C7 Corvette won't spawn new Cadillac XLR [w/video]
Fri, 23 Aug 2013Between the new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray and the even newer Cadillac Elmiraj Concept shown off at Pebble Beach, we were already expecting some sort of chatter of a Cadillac XLR redux. During an in-depth C7 Corvette discussion with Tadge Juechter, the car's chief engineer, Fox News asked if a Corvette-based, Bowling Green-built Cadillac will be built off the C7. Non-spoiler alert: the answer is no.
Juechter says that General Motors has "no intent" on transforming this car into a Cadillac product since the C7 has been optimized for the Corvette buyer, a consumer that's generally a different sort of person than a Cadillac intender who might also be cross-shopping a Mercedes-Benz SL-Class or BMW 6 Series.
While we're not ready to write off a future XLR altogether, we assume that the Corvette Cadillac experiment is most likely never going to happen again. The interview with Juechter is posted below, but the XLR discussion comes in at the 9:00 mark.
