1976 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special sedan. Breathtaking original color combination of white exterior with a white and black interior, very chic looking! Nearly fully loaded and also has the scarce for 1976 electrically sliding Astro-roof option. I have owned the car about five years and it is originally from Wisconsin, which is where it has spent its whole life in a garaged enviroment up until I bought it. The car is all original, has never been repainted or reupholstered yet. It is in need of minor cosmetic attention, as a tiny bit of rust is begining to flare up in a couple of spots around the roofline and there is a scratch that has been touched up on the drivers side front fender. There are two very minor cracks in the rear armrests, the cruise control, clock, and power antenna stopped working as well. Despite this, the car shows and drives very well as a daily driver with clean carpets, very nice leather seats that show mileage appropiate wear on the drivers side, with cold AC and all other options working as intended. The 500 CID Engine runs strong with no oil usage and cruises effortlessly at highway speeds all day. I get compliments and positive reactions every time I go out in this car!
Colors are very important in vintage cars, and you don't get much better than this for a stunning color combination. The Cotillion white exterior with white padded roof look great while the white seats set off the black dash and carpets very nicely inside. Also note the steering wheel, mine is still in perfect condition with no chunking, both upper and lower dashes are in perfect shape as well. No cracks or scratches in the glass as well. Has the rear defog built into the rear glass that works fine too.
The car comes complete with original owners manual, shop manual, 1976 Cadillac 8-Track tape, and the ad from the newspaper where the car was originally sold back in '76! If you have the chance, please inspect the car for yourself or have it inspected during the run of this auction. Inspections are welcome anytime during this period. Car is sold as is and where is with no warranties expressed or implied. Remember this is the last year for the traditional full sized Cadillac before the downsizing trend began in 1977, so this is truly the last of a breed of gentlemanly luxury cars. Write with any questions or additional photos, or call 301-767-5503.
Thank you!

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.

2016 Hennessey CTS-V is properly ridiculous with 1,000 horsepower
Thu, Apr 9 2015We truly live in a halcyon era of automotive performance with models like the latest Shelby GT350 Mustang and 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat. And now Hennessey Performance Engineering is bringing something with absolutely obscene power to the world with its tuned 2016 Cadillac CTS-V that packs a ludicrous 1,000 horsepower. The latest CTS-V isn't even on sale yet but should be a powerhouse straight from the factory. Under its carbon fiber hood is a 6.2-liter supercharged LT4 V8 with 640 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque that makes the sedan capable of a 200-mile-per-hour top speed. Hennessey's take ditches the blower in favor of two turbos to feed air to the engine. To cope with the extra power, the mill gets upgrades like forged aluminum pistons and forged steel parts for the rods and crankshaft, and transmission upgrades are also necessary to make it all work. Buyers can even spec things like carbon-ceramic brakes and a widebody kit to allow for bigger tires. The crazy numbers are leading to some big performance claims from company founder John Hennessey. "I believe that our 2016 Twin Turbo CTS-V will have a top speed approaching 240 mph," he said in the Caddy's announcement. Hennessey is building just 24 of these 1,000-horsepower sedans for the 2016 model year. However, for those that want to keep the supercharger under the hood, the company is also offering upgrades with 750 hp and 800 hp for the CTS-V too. All of them sound absolutely ridiculous in an utterly fantastic way. 2016 HPE1000 Twin Turbo Cadillac CTS-V Texas Tuner Plans to Build World's Fastest 4-Door Sedan Sealy, Texas-When the next generation Cadillac CTS-V hits the streets later this year, it will have 640+ hp and a top speed of nearly 200 mph. To the team at Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE), this is a good starting point. The company plans to pick-up where they left off with the last gen CTS-V by producing the world's fastest 4-door sedan: The Hennessey HPE1000 Twin Turbo CTS-V. "A couple of years ago, the State of Texas gave us the opportunity to test one of our specially tuned CTS-Vs – our VR1200 Twin Turbo coupe. It ran 221 mph (356 km/h) on State Highway 130, near the Circuit of the Americas", said company founder, John Hennessey. "It was still pulling on when we ran out of road. I believe that our 2016 Twin Turbo CTS-V will have a top speed approaching 240 mph (386 km/h)". Hennessey plans to offer a limited run of only 24 units for the 2016 model year.
