For your consideration I am offering for sale my 1992 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham d’Elegance sedan.  The car has been driven only 68, 900 miles from new and has been maintained in a climate controlled garage.  This car has clearly been meticulously maintained since new. I have owned the car for three years using it only for show and special occasions having bought it from another collector.  This is the best driving, comfortable, and most reliable collector car I have ever owned.  I would not hesitate to drive the car any distance.  I’m always amazed at how much attention the car receives, both at shows and on the street.  I recently took the car to an upscale dining establishment and when the valet returned the car he said it was his favorite of everything he had driven.  That includes some pretty exotic company so I thought it a great compliment.  My reason for selling is that I just took another collector car in for paint and bodywork and it is going to be quite a bit more costly than anticipated. 

 

This particular car has always been a Southern car.  I believe the color is Sapphire Blue Metallic.  The car features the optional 5.7 liter V8 with throttle-body fuel injection (Chevrolet 350 I believe), four speed automatic, and 3.08:1 rear axle ratio.  The Brougham of course features power everything and the standard premium AM/FM stereo with tape deck.   Everything on the car is in fully functional condition right down to the auto trunk release and pull-down feature. 

 

Drivetrain:  In my three years of ownership the only item I have had to replace is the water pump which was approximately 400 miles ago.  I believe the fuel pump was replaced just before my purchase.  The car performs flawlessly, has good pick-up, and has never let me down.  Every feature in the car works as it should and the climate control air conditioning blows very cold.  Cruise control works as it should, wipers and spray, everything is turn-key ready on this car.  The engine compartment is extraordinarily clean and fresh looking and the engine does not even show any paint loss to speak of. 

 

Chassis:  The Hankook Optimo whitewall tires were installed just prior to my purchase and now have approximately 6000 miles on them.  When I purchased the car I had the brakes inspected and they were found to be in nearly new condition at that time.  I assume they were overhauled at the same time the tires were purchased.  The wire wheel-covers are in really excellent condition with exception of the right rear showing one linear inch of curb rash.  The underside of the car is very clean with only the normal sporadic light surface rust.  The body is 100% rust free.

 

Interior:  The interior is in nearly new condition.  There is only the very slightest wear on the side of the drivers sear along the edge facing the door.  It is so minimal it is almost not worth mentioning. The interior is in a remarkable state of preservation with no cuts or tears.  The leather is still very supple and the back seat looks never to have been sat in.  The dash and door panels are nearly flawless.  The headliner was replaced by the original owner and I would never guess it had been done had I not been told.  Apparently the carpet was replaced at the same time and is still fresh and like new.  The trunk is original, as is the mat, all in excellent condition.

 

Body and trim:  I believe the paint is all original with the exception of the front fiberglass valance which was professionally painted for show.  There is a dimple just to the left of the trunk lock where it looks like something fell against the car, you have to catch it in the right light to see it.  The plastic fillers around the tail lights are supple and perfect.  The silver plastic rear bumper filler has two cracks and I never got around to replacing it, the part is available.  The vinyl top is in amazing condition and I would say 99.9% of the stitching is intact which is a rarity.  There is a small 3/8” round filled in patch centered over the rear window at the bend of the roof.  It’s not really noticeable but I must mention it, it was there when I purchased the car.  The color of the roof is very good with only a few dime sized etched spots from bird droppings.  This Brougham is fully detailed for show, right down to the door jambs.  The car is ready to drive onto the show field and has recently placed first among some formidable competition, in one case against four other similar Broughams.  I searched quite a while to find a 90-92 Brougham d’Elegance with the 5.7 in this condition and color and it has been nothing but a joy to drive and own. 

 

I am a private collector, not a dealer.  The car is located in Atlanta, GA 30307 Clear title, no warranty expressed or implied.  My preferred method of payment is wire transfer or cashiers check.  Car is local pick-up only, I work from home so will do my best to accommodate pick up or your transport company.  Thank you.

Shatner's Rivet motorcycle to enter limited production with CTS-V engine [w/video]

Sat, Apr 11 2015

William Shatner has entertained the world for decades, from playing Captain Kirk on Star Trek to covering songs like Rocket Man and Common People. Now in his 80s, Billy Shatz has embarked on one of his weirdest projects yet: helping to design the wild Rivet One trike with motorcycle fabrication company American Wrench. Now, you can order one too with power as crazy as the three-wheeler's design. We last saw the Rivet One's aluminum body with the styling like a menacing, art-deco easy chair a few months ago, but now Shatner has started talking about the trike's powerplant, which is based around the heart of a Cadillac CTS-V. "It's a beast with advanced guts. It's powered by an all-aluminum, computer-controlled, supercharged and intercooled V8 engine – producing over 500 HP," Shatner said to Gizmag. Keep an eye out because Shatner intends to captain the Rivet One from Chicago to Los Angeles later this year. Also, if you want a ride like Captain James T. Kirk, the company is taking requests for the trike, made on a build-to-order basis after completing Shatner's job, according to Gizmag. Prices aren't announced yet but expect the number to be as out of this world as a voyage of the Enterprise. The video below provides a further look at the Rivet One's unconventional design.

Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla

Tue, Jul 12 2016

Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.

GM to idle car production at five factories as Americans continue CUV love affair

Mon, Dec 19 2016

In case you needed another reminder that Americans have fallen out of love with sedans, General Motors today announced plans to idle five factories in January in a bid to cut its inventory to 70 days. Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly ( Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt and Impala) and Fairfax Assembly in Kansas ( Chevy Malibu) will stop production for three weeks. Lansing Grand River ( Cadillac ATS and CTS, and Chevy Camaro) is going down for two weeks, while Lordstown, OH ( Chevy Cruze) and Bowling Green, KY ( Chevy Corvette) will go idle for a week each, Automotive News reports. GM's shutdown reflects a broader problem with the company's supply – at 847,000 vehicles, the company's supply increased unsteadily from a low of 629,000 units in January of 2016. That's more than a 25 percent increase in the past year. Citing information from Autodata, The Detroit News reports that at the end of November, GM had a 168-day supply of LaCrosses, 177 days' worth of Camaro, 170 days of Corvette, 121 days for Cruze, 119 days for ATS, 132 days for CTS, and 110 days of CT6. Meanwhile, inventory of the company's more popular vehicles is actually below the professionally accepted 60- to 70-day supply, The News reports. The Trax, Colorado pickup, and GM's full-size SUVs are sitting below 50 days and experiencing year-over-year sales increases. GM needs a rethink of its inventory levels, which is something that's apparently coming. "We're going to be responsible in managing our inventory levels," GM spokesman Jim Cain told The News. Another unnamed spokesman told Automotive News the company's day-to-day supplies would "fluctuate before moderating at year-end." But at least one analyst thinks this won't be the last time Detroit needs to stop production to level things out. "Incentives are elevated, residuals are declining, and rates are rising," Brian Johnson, an analyst with Barclays, told The News. "And while GM in particular may benefit in the months ahead from new product launches, it's important to recognize that GM's inventory is elevated at the moment, and it wouldn't surprise us if they need to announce another production cut – which could pressure the stock."
