97 with under 23,000 miles.  Classic late model Caddy with that wonderful floating ride.  This car is in awesome shape with no accidents or paint work, no mechanical problems and maintenance is up to date.  Every component you would use to judge milage looks like a 22k mile car.  Nothing to be concerned with.  Clean car fax report and I have been all over this car and found no sign of body paint or damage.  I'm the second actual owner.  Original owner had it in his family and transferred it a couple times and finally to his nephew who didn't drive it and then sold it to me.  The car was constantly garaged in New York.  No surprises.  I have purchased a couple cars on ebay for personal use and if you get this one, you will not be disappointed and will have made a great decision.

Paint is wonderful and shiny. 
Brand new high end, BF Goodrich tires. 
New brake disc all around, new brake pads. 
Just changed the motor oil again.
Flushed the power steering fluid.
Cooling system was drained and completely flushed through the heater core and engine block.
New heater core. I was concerned with the possibility of corrosion due to the systems age and problems with GM lifetime fluid. Core was in perfect shape with zero issues. I still have the old unit to show you.
High grade window tint including a brow for the front one. 
Burns no oil.

Interior is in excellent condition and the seats show little use.  Carpet like new with the original floor mats in place (as seen in the photos).  Never smoked in and still smells like leather.

Standard list of options plus self leveling rear air suspension.  A 275 hp Norstar V-8, in a front wheel drive with traction control configuration, is under the hood.  This is a very dependable and strong motor meant to be driven hard.  She is fast but can still run on regular gas, I use premium.  Milage is 17 in city and up to 32 on the highway.  Air and heat are top notch.  No chips in the windshield.  No door dings but a couple minor scuffs commensurate with age but hardly noticeable.  No trunk leaks or surface rust. All interior and exterior lights work.  Head lights are glass which is wonderful.  No plastic clouding here!  Never used spare tire.

Color is Silvermist metallic.  It appears a misty green in the sun but silver in low light, very unique color.  Interior is a shale or light green, again very nice looking.

The car has a really wonderful, mellow rumble from the dual exhaust and quad tips.  The rear end view is that of the long vertical, slashing tail lamps that say Cadillac.  The car is long and low, very, very comfortable on those long freeway trips.

No issue with the car and I wouldn't hesitate to sell to my next door neighbor or a family member.  I had intended to give this to my daughter for college but it's way too nice. Where can you get a rock solid car with these retro looks for such a great price?  Keep in mind the car has been garaged, rarely driven and not abused.


This has to go to make room for a trailer (in my garage).

GM will recall more than 3.3 million vehicles in China for suspension defect

Sat, Sep 29 2018

BEIJING (Reuters) - General Motors' joint venture in China, Shanghai GM, will recall more than 3.3 million Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicles stating Oct. 20 because of a defect with the suspension system, China's market regulator said on Saturday. GM Shanghai said in a text message to Reuters that the suspension arm may be deformed under extreme operating conditions, but there are no known casualties related to the issue. The recall includes cars produced between 2013 and 2018, the State Administration for Market Regulation said in a statement. GM will contact those affected and repair the vehicles free of charge, it said.

Cadillac rushing update for laggy CUE infotainment system

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

BMW's innovative iDrive was introduced in 2001, and a dozen years later, automakers are still learning hard lessons about what consumers want in their infotainment systems. In response to owner feedback - and a few media drubbings - about the delayed and occasionally fickle responses of its CUE (short for Cadillac User Experience) system, Cadillac has told Wired that it's going to issue an update this year.
Coming for the XTS and ATS, the new software will mean quicker haptic feedback to driver inputs on the touchscreen and the buttons, and snappier responses on screen. Down the road, Cadillac's VP of marketing says that a different mix of screen controls and hard buttons is "something you'll be seeing in the future" - the system is presently a mix of touchscreen-based controls and capacitive-touch switchgear - there are no knobs or physical pushbuttons to speak of, and the omission of both has proven to be a divisive issue among consumers and industry pundits.
Cadillac hasn't provided a date for when the CUE update will be issued, but it has indicated that the service will be performed by dealers, not sent wirelessly.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
