This is a 1999 Cadillac Eldorado.  The body is in good condition.  I will begin by explaining the good things about this car then I will tell the bad things.  The original engine/drive train was removed a year ago, the engine began overheating.  I was facing either getting rid of it for a couple hundred dollars or repairing it.  I found a car locally that was in the midst of an estate settlement.  It was another 99 Cadillac that was owned by an elderly man that never permitted anyone to drive it.  The car was dismantled  because of no clear title.  The entire drive train was switched.  Transmission, axles, engine, struts, etc.  This engine had 96,000 miles on it.  The oil was clean.  A local mechanic did the switch.  The body has about 225,000 miles on it and given the condition I decided to fix it. 

 

With the cost of the drive train and to have it switched cost about $2600.

 

The rear shocks were replaced a couple years ago.  All new brake lines, one brake caliper, master cylinder and water pump.  Air conditioning work.  This amounted to another $700.

 

The engine runs smooth with no knocks or other noises, does not burn oil.  It has extremely fast acceleration.  The North Star Engine is strong.  It cruises along nicely.

It starts easily.  The heated leather seats during cold months are very nice.

 

 

The bad.  This car is going on 15 years old.  The chassis has 220,000 miles on it.  You should not expect this car to be like a new $50,000 Cadillac.  Although the body is in good condition there are some details that need attention.  The front bumper does not fit perfectly and the little trim pieces on the bumpers are loose.   A rear brake lens is cracked.  There are dings and small scratches.  The air conditioner was charged last June and within a few weeks it lost its charge.  The sun roof does not work well.  There are dash light notifications showing anti lock brakes and occasional other messages.  Purchase this car with the idea that the anti lock brake system may or may not be working.  Other dash light notices do not seem to affect the running or driving of this car.

 

The pictures give a good idea of the condition.  BUT I have found that often the pictures do make a car look a little better than the condition you will find in person.   So, I want to be clear about what you will find if you buy this car.  I would answer any questions.  I want to make every effort to describe this car accurately to complete a transaction where the buyer and I am satisfied while maintaining my 100% positive feedback.  Area code 740 my exchange is 581 and last 4 digits is 0114.  We have a clear Ohio Title, it is located at zip 43724, I may be able to assist with delivery or shipping.

Cadillac boss says small SUV 'at least four years away'

Sat, Jan 24 2015

Since Johan de Nysschen's takeover as brand president, there's a lot of buzz around Cadillac. Now, the brand's leader is now giving a little more clarity about when we might see some of the company's future vehicles, including its compact crossover. "Product development life cycles being what they are, I don't have a date in mind but I would estimate it is at least four years away," said de Nysschen about a small Cadillac CUV. The comments were made to Reuters during the Washington Auto Show. The vehicle is part of Cadillac's eight-model, $12 billion reinvention through 2020. Interestingly, de Nysschen told Autoblog at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show that he estimated the compact luxury CUV to arrive by early 2018. The boss also indicated that Cadillac would get a sedan to slot below the ATS some time in 2017, and the previously spied SRX replacement, possibly called the XT5, would debut in 2016. In the meantime, the company's flagship CT6 is being unveiled at the 2015 New York Auto Show in April. The wait for a luxury compact CUV makes Cadillac one of the later entries into the segment. The space is already filling with vehicles like the BMW X1, Audi Q3, Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class, Lexus NX and Lincoln MKC. Small crossovers in general seem to still be growing in sales. While building a better brand in the US, de Nysschen also wants to grow Cadillac in Europe in the future. He told Reuters that he wants diesel vehicles ready for 2019 to appeal to customers there. Some might even be offered in the US. News Source: ReutersImage Credit: Scott Olson / Getty Images Design/Style Cadillac Crossover Diesel Vehicles Luxury de nysschen

Cadillac CT6 shows its face in 2015 Oscars ad [w/video]

Mon, Feb 23 2015

Have you been watching the 2015 Oscars? No? Then you've missed your very first look at Cadillac's long-awaited flagship, the imaginatively named CT6. Don't worry folks, we've got the entire spot, titled The Daring: No Regrets, available below. Marking the start of the new Dare Greatly campaign, the 60-second spot will be joined by three others during the Oscars' broadcast, and features a number of unconventional luminaries from the worlds of fashion, finance, technology and film, contrasting their common beginnings with their exceptional accomplishments. It's a powerful spot... and then the CT6 arrives. Asking "How dare a 112-year-old carmaker reinvent itself," a white CT6 is spotted (viewed through what looks like a bad Instagram filter) cruising slowly down a New York (we assume) street. The car itself is big and wide – properly American and Cadillac in its proportions – and features a very handsome evolution of the latest CTS' styling, with a new take on the brand's distinctive headlight and grille design. Have a look at the photo above, watch the ad and let us know what you think of both the commercial and the car that stars in it, down in Comments.
