Cadillac Xlr Star Black Edition Modified Custom Restomod Xlr-v Rims Bulgari Nr! on 2040-cars
Atlantic Beach, Florida, United States
You are bidding on a 2004 Cadillac XLR Star Black Edition. This is #35 of 200 made. CEO owned and driven 75 miles daily to and from the office as a trophy car. Clear title in hand, although the carfax may say there is a lien it is satisfied for this sale.
This car was originally developed as the EVOQ while under development by General Motors and became the first generation XLR. Manufactured on the Corvette assembly line, based on a Corvette Frame, with 50th Anniversary Corvette Magnetic Suspension, 5 speed manual shift Corvette Automatic Transmission and a more powerful than normal Northstar VVT 32 Valve Engine, this is the pinnacle American car in my opinion. This car rivals the technology available in most new cars today, and uses the same technology and supplier as the Mercedes SL500 & SL600 to achieve the hard top with such light weight and reliability. If you are a shy person, do not purchase this car, because people ask about it every day you drive it. The A/C is ice cold, heated and cooled seats make it much more comfortable with the top down. This car has extensive dealer service records, nearly every component that was known to cause problems in this series of cars has been replaced by GM under warrantee. Vehicle has been more than regularly serviced always using synthetic oils and top quality parts. In early 2013 a new pair of driver & passenger seats and center console shifter were installed so the interior looks very fresh. (At a cost of nearly $8000) Also later in 2013, at 110,000 miles the transmission and torque converter was overhauled. Then at 122,000 miles, the entire engine was reworked, including the new and improved valve guides added to the rebuilt, ported and polished head as well as new electronic variable valve timing controllers, at a cost of over $5000. As you can see from the photos, this is car number 3 in my stable of 13. I love and care for this car just as I do my Bentley #1, Jaguar #4, Lotus #5, Shelby #6, Ferrari #2 and other toys. Mileage is at 140,000 but I will keep driving it a few days a week until it sells, because I do love this car! Factory standard features include: Keyless Entry with two fobs included in the sale! Adaptive cruise control. Adaptive rain sensors. Heads up display with radio, MPH, trailing distance when adaptive cruise is on and many other heads up features. Steering wheel controls for Stereo, Cruise Control Gap & Voice Command. Verbal command unit in steering wheel which includes navigation controls. 6 Disc CD Changer in dash with single disc DVD / CD / NAV player. In dash navigation, including DVD viewing override, so you can watch movies while driving the car (great for passengers to enjoy, not so good for the driver to do). Dual Zone Climate Control with Cooled and Heated seats for driver and passenger. 42 position electronic adjustable seats for driver and passenger. TPMS sensors. Onstar safety system. Factory upgraded features include: Bulgari Speedometer and Tachometer Gauges! REAL WOOD VENEER INTERIOR TRIM, NOT THE PLASTIC USED IN LATER MODELS! The tail lights and front grille are blacked out, with gun metal colored badges not available through Cadillac any longer. She is riding on a fresh set of rear tires, and the set of rims are XLR-V factory that have no wear as they are new. All functions perform as they should. Non Factory Upgraded Features include: All LED bright white lighting, including interior, trunk, license plate and doors. D3 Racing Catalytic Converters installed D3 Racing ECU Installed (Google "D3 Cadillac" to see what I am talking about here.) These D3 upgrades make the car a bit more muscular and responsive, but it is less "tame" at idle and sounds quite a bit more throaty than a standard XLR. The bad news: Under the hood, one of the hood mounts is missing so the hood will not stay up on it's own. The car has several nicks and dings that you would expect given age & mileage. There is a scratch on the tourneau cover that is about 1 inch in a triangular pattern. Next to the driver seat there is a crack in the lateral entry panel trim cover. This is a cheap plastic part from GM that has broken several times over the years so I am tired of replacing it. If you are a big guy or gal, you will break this piece entering and leaving the car, if you are thin, you can replace it and it will stay fixed... Paint is a 9 at 20 feet, a 8 at 10 feet and a 7 close up. Photos of all major blemishes and scratches have been provided herein. Thank you for viewing this auction and good luck with your bidding!

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
Cadillac XTS to become Opel flagship sedan?
Tue, 24 Jul 2012According to Auto-News.de, Opel is considering using Cadillac's all-new big sedan, the XTS, as the base for its new flagship car, which would likely carry the name Omega.
WorldCarFans.com speculates that Opel could use GM's 3.6-liter direct-injection V6 that generates 304 horsepower or, possibly, a 2.8-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that creates 321 horsepower to power the vehicle. The European automaker could even use a 195-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine in this application - fine, since many of Europe's largest sedans are powered by smaller, more efficient engines.
Regardless of power, the Omega could arrive at dealerships by the end of 2013.
Is Lincoln MKC cutting into Cadillac SRX sales?
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The two big American luxury brands of Cadillac and Lincoln are on surprisingly similar paths at the moment with both divisions hoping to redefine themselves and grow popularity. They're still early in the process with no clear winner yet, but things might actually be looking up for Lincoln's latest model, according to a monthly sales analysis from The Motley Fool. It seems, at least early on, that the new MKC crossover might be taking a bite out of the Cadillac SRX's growth.
The MKC launched just a few months ago and has been getting a big marketing push from a series of oft-mocked ads starring the smooth-talking Matthew McConaughey. The luxury CUV has been the popular, new kid on the block with growing sales since its introduction. While smaller than the SRX, the Lincoln starts at a lower price and offers better fuel economy.
Through June, the SRX performed well with sales up over 20 percent on average through June, according to The Motley Fool. However, July and August saw things plummet with year-over-year drops of 7 percent and 37 percent, respectively. It still far outsold the MKC in terms of actual units in a given month, but the Caddy's continued growth has appeared to stagnate.
