Location:

Willoughby, Ohio, United States

Willoughby, Ohio, United States

This is a NO RESERVE listing.

This is my 1983 Cadillac Seville sedan.  This is a clean, nice-driving car that has been kept in very nice condition. This is a stock, unmolested, original-condition car that hasn't been modified or altered. 

This car was part of the collection of a local car collector who has recently passed away. He kept about 20 specialty cars in a warehouse as his collection. This Seville was always garaged and not driven in snow or bad weather.
 
This Seville runs and drives very nicely and it is a comfortable, clean and solid driver. 

This Seville has the following equipment and options:
  • HT4100 4.1L aluminum V8 engine
  • automatic transmission
  • power leather seats
  • factory "full Cabriolet roof" intended to resemble a convertible
  • cruise control
  • tilt and telescoping steering wheel
  • heated remote mirrors
  • power windows and locks
  • Electronic Auto Climate Control with A/C
  • fuel economy computer
  • factory AM/FM cassette radio
  • auto-dimming headlights and headlight delay feature
This is a clean, nice-condition vintage Seville.  The exterior and body are clean and in very presentable condition.  The paint is nice with a good gloss remaining and no major defects.  The car looks very good overall.

The interior of this car is very good- the leather seats are in excellent condition and the carpets and upholstery are clean and very nice.  This interior is probably the best feature of the car- it is very clean and looks great.

This car starts, runs and drives very well.  Recent service includes an oil change, radiator fluid exchange, brake service and new starter.  This car is smooth, powerful and drives very nicely.  The tires have good tread.  This car doesn't have any known mechanical problems. This is a fun old car and a nice driver- a great old classic you can enjoy the way it is.

The engine is strong and powerful, the transmission shifts well, the brakes stop well and the ride is smooth. The power trunk release and pull-down works, the original factory radio works great, the power locks and windows are working, the driver's seat forward/backward plus up/down controls work and the cruise control works.

This is a 1983 car and as such it is not brand new. This is not a restored car nor a Pebble Beach concours vehicle. It is sold as-is with no guarantee. I see no reason the car couldn't make your drive home but I stress that I can't guarantee against breakdowns. Here is a complete list of every known defect in the car: There is a small ding toward the bottom of the right front door. The front grille and left headlight surround are cracked. The rubber door weatherstripping is a bit worn. The air conditioning is fully intact and present, but it is not blowing cold. The title mileage reads as non-actual. The passenger power seat controls do not work and the driver's seat tilt functions do not appear to work either. There is a slight exhaust leak (not particularly loud). There are small, normal and expected nicks, faults and flaws here and there throughout the exterior. The rear bumper fillers have been repaired but it isn't a perfect job. There is some minor surface rust, for example inside the door jambs. The power antenna always stays up. That's it- that is every known fault or flaw. I feel confident in the overall good condition and driveability of this car.

2015 Cadillac ATS, CTS recalled over brake issue

Tue, Jun 23 2015

A problem with the brakes on the 2015 ATS and CTS has prompted Cadillac to issue a recall. According to the notice below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the issue revolves around the bracket that connects the brake pedal assembly and the rod that actuates the brakes. Even under normal operation, that bracket could fracture, impeding the ability to slow or stop the vehicle. That, as you're surely aware, could increase the risk of a crash. The issue affects a reported 2,163 vehicles in the United States. Owners will need to be bring their vehicles in to their local dealership to have those brackets replaced starting on August 1. See the complete recall notice below. RECALL Subject : Brake Pedal Bracket may Fracture Report Receipt Date: JUN 09, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V358000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 2,163 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Cadillac ATS and CTS vehicles. The affected vehicles have a bracket between the brake pedal assembly and the rod that actuates the brakes that may fracture during normal brake pedal operation. CONSEQUENCE: If the bracket fractures, the driver would not be able to apply the brakes, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicle and replace any affected bracket, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin August 1, 2015. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 15352. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

How GM's grueling 24-hour test gets the kinks out of its performance cars

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

One of the biggest challenges automakers face when designing a high-performance car is making sure that it is both fast and reliable. For General Motors, any car that might be taken to the track by its owner - like the Corvette, Camaro Z/28 (shown above) and the Cadillac CTS-V, for example - undergoes a rigorous and strenuous 24-hour test by engineers at the Milford Proving Grounds, as pointed out by Car and Driver.
We've posted on this topic in the past - on a video showing the Camaro ZL1 being brutalized, for instance - but this article gives a more in-depth look at what actually happens behind the scenes... including what that poor ZL1 went through. Though the test isn't for 24 hours straight, the cars are pushed as hard as possible by some of GM's best drivers with only the brakes and tires replaced frequently.
We don't want to ruin the fun for you, but it is an interesting article that tells just some of what GM does to develop its sports cars. Check out the full article over at Car and Driver for the rest of the story.

GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
