For sale:  2008 Cadillac STS in Gold Mist metallic with Cashmere leather interior. All Wheel Drive with 302hp Direct Injection V6 engine. 6 speed automatic with manual shift mode. RARE Factory navigation system (for the V6 engine - more common with the V8 option) with BOSE Studio Surround system and 6 CD/DVD changer. Power Sunroof. Zenon headlamps. Heated & Cooled front seats. Wood & Heated steering wheel.  Heated rear seats.  Rainsensing Wipers. Autodimming Intellibeam headlamps. Cadillac "accessory" 18" polished wheels with matching Michelin Pilot tires (I no longer have the original factory 17" wheels & tires).

This is a low mileage 2 owner vehicle in excellent condition inside & out.  No mechanical issues at this time - everything works as it should with the powertrain and the electronics.  Decent gas mileage (around 25-26 on the highway).   In November 2012, GM replaced the timing chain for me under the powertrain warranty - apparently this is a known issue with GM's direct injection engines that the chain stretches and upsets the sensor in the engine.  Nonsmoking STS as well. Just turned 25,000 miles on 12/3/12.  Ceramic front AC Delco brake pads were installed when the 18" wheels were installed (to cut down the brake dust).  Please send an eBay message if you are in the Champaign area and would like to view this nice STS in person.

If you are too far away, I'd be happy to take the STS to the shipper of your choice (shipping is at buyer's expense - just click the 'Shipping' tab above to estimate your shipping from my zip code, which is 61822, to yours).  You could also fly into the local airport (Willard - code CMI) and I would meet you there to complete the sale.  Thanks for looking, Doug

New Cadillac ELR ad more educational, less controversial than 'Poolside'

Mon, Mar 24 2014

Cadillac's first TV commercial for its ELR plug-in hybrid, Poolside, was a smash hit, in that a lot of people saw and talked about it. The 60-second spot didn't say the car was a plug-in, took potshots at the work ethic of all non-Americans and has raked in over a million views on YouTube (you can add one more here). Caddy's new ELR video will get a lot less media attention, but that's exactly the point. Cadillac claims it was happy with the way actor Neil McDonough strutted his way into the controversial ELR discussion. This time around, though, the coupe gets promoted in a more traditional way: with information about the car and what it can do - you know, drive on electricity, capture braking energy into the battery, go further on gas power when needed, those kinds of things – courtesy of GM's executive chief engineer for electrified vehicles, Pam Fletcher. The tone of the video has not been changed because of the Poolside controversy. David Caldwell, manager of Cadillac communications, tells AutoblogGreen that the new video is not destined for TV and is completely different because it's meant for a different audience. "It doesn't have any direct relation to Poolside," he says. "TV advertising is not necessarily the heart of marketing something like the ELR. Notwithstanding the fact that we had a very thought-provoking ad [laughs]." "We definitely have a need to communicate what the ELR is" - Cadillac's David Caldwell The way you reach out to people via the web is different than the mass-media techniques used in spots like Poolside during big TV events (it aired during the Winter Olympics). The two video spots are different because you need to offer different information in different ways, for example having an ELR website as well as an iPad filled with ELR information at the dealership. For Cadillac, TV is "not going to be the predominant methodology," used to sell the ELR, Caldwell said, "the web is closer to what you need to do to reach people. We definitely have a need to communicate what the ELR is. It's not television advertising at all." Caldwell said a handful of other short videos similar to the new one will go live in the near future, showcasing design and powertrain aspects of the car. Keep an eye out for them – just don't look for them on TV. You can watch the new video below.

Cadillac sales chief Peffer resigns amidst slow sales

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

Cadillac continues to hemorrhage executives, as it's just seen its fourth high-level departure in the past year. Vice President of Global Strategic Development Don Butler (who defected to Ford) and European President and Managing Director Susan Docherty both left the company of their own volition, while Chase Hawkins, Cadillac's vice president of sales and service, was fired following a "violation of policy" in July of 2013. Strangely, it's Hawkins' replacement, Bill Peffer (shown above), who has handed in his papers this time around.
"Bill left to pursue other interests. Kurt McNeil replaces him, effective immediately," spokesman David Caldwell told Autoblog via email.
McNeil last held the VP of sales and service position back in 2012. He's currently the vice president of US sales for all of General Motors. According to The Detroit News, McNeil will take on the post in what is likely an interim capacity.

2014 Cadillac CTS

Fixated By Europeans, GM Ensures The Third Time Is A Charm
Few things are better for consumers than competition raising the bar. And no campaign seems fiercer than the one currently underway in the midsize sport-sedan segment now that Cadillac has introduced its all-new 2014 CTS to go head-to-head against the benchmark Audi A6, BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
While the CTS has been on the market for slightly more than a decade, up until this third-generation, Cadillac hasn't truly had the proper high-performance rear-wheel-drive architecture to build a genuine world-class fighter, both inside and out. And now that the American automaker has successfully mirrored Audi, BMW and Mercedes in overall vehicle size, engine output and cabin appointments, the first shots have been fired.
