I'm the third owner, having bought it from a friend of mine. It's been covered until recently by Cadillac's platinum warranty, and runs and drives quite well. Adult-owned, this car hasn't been abused or performance-modified.
No accidents, clean CT title, non-smoker. I have service records too. Comes with two keys (each recalls separate seat/mirror/stereo settings), owners manual, nav DVD.
The skip-shift "feature" that makes you go from 1st to 4th gear under light load has been disabled.
New battery, serpentine belt, brake lines/pads/rotors. Recent new tires (and alignment) too. No slipping from clutch. I had my friend replace the windshield just before I picked it up, so that's new as well.
I've installed a SPEC ipod interface that works great with my ipod 4s (I think it has an aux-in too) - basically plays music (and gps) though the stock stereo using one of the satellite radio slots. I have also installed a costar bluestar device, that disconnects the OnStar service, and instead can bind via bluetooth to any portable device so you can place/take calls using the stereo and the car's built-in microphones.Hard-wired for Passport or Valentine 1 radar detectors - shuts off when the car is off.
Body is very clean and paint is great. There are a few blemishes on the outside (and I'm being pretty picky here):
small crease in top of passenger fender
small scratch on passenger fender
small nick in passenger a-pillar
leading edge of hood has a few nicks but nothing rusting
rear bumper has a little bruise from the first day I had it (backed into a pole at 2mph while getting emissions tested!), and a light scrape from parking.
Driver rear door has a door ding
Rims are in good shape, though some have scratches.
Interior is very clean - some scuff marks on back of front seats (two kids). Buttons are all in great shape (nav unit was replaced because the buttons had peeled).
Drives great - alignment is bang-on with no pulling to the side under any condition. The 6-speed shifts just fine (though not miata-precise, it's fine). No funny sounds or smells, she just goes like stink.
This car was well-taken care of, and it shows. I'm happy to take her to any mechanic within 20 minutes of me for an inspection (on your dime), and please don't make me an offer without having seen the car first.

Is this the 2014-15 Cadillac Escalade?
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Following the introduction of the redesigned Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, we're expecting General Motors won't wait too much longer to show off the next-generation fullsize SUVs that share this platform - including the Cadillac Escalade. It's still not clear if the next Escalade will debut for the 2014 or 2015 model years, but Carscoops has what it claims to an exclusive first look of the new Cadillac, revealing a portion of the headlight, front fascia and wheel.
Judging from this small picture, it looks like the Escalade could incorporate styling cues that we've seen on new Cadillac models like the ELR and the 2014 CTS, but that article says that other design details could include tall, vertical taillights similar to the CTS Wagon, staggered-width wheels and a narrower daylight opening for the side windows. The last time we saw the fourth-generation 'Slade back in October in spy shots, the heavy camouflage prevented us from getting an idea of the luxury SUV's appearance, but this image and description gives us something to look forward to. Head on over to Carscoops for more potential information as well as a full rendering from back in January.
Cadillac exec realizes ELR pricing was stupid high
Thu, May 14 2015At least one Cadillac exec has finally started to come to terms with something we knew all along: the initial $75,000 price for the ELR plug-in hybrid was way too high. The bad decision in part led to the model selling just over 1,000 units last year. Company marketing boss Uwe Ellinghaus recently gave an interview to Bloomberg where he discussed what went wrong. "The MSRP was, indeed, a mouthful," Ellinghaus said to Bloomberg. "We overestimated that customers would realize our competitors were naked at that price." People balked at the ELR's price from the very start, and dealers were receiving $5,000 at one point just for getting customers to test drive the PHEV. Later, some incentives for buyers were as high as $14,000. Cadillac planners saw a conundrum when it came to the ELR's price. Too low of a figure was thought to bring the model close to the Chevrolet Volt, and $75,000 was also believed to signal Caddy's PHEV as something special. "We just wanted to make this a statement for the brand of how progressive we are," Ellinghaus said to Bloomberg. Cadillac is now working to rehabilitate the ELR's reputation with a host of updates for 2016. Buyers get a 25-percent boost in powertrain output, additional standard features, and the whole package comes with a $9,000 drop in price. The tweaks should help the luxurious PHEV make a better second impression. Related Video:
President Trump might get to start his administration in a new Cadillac limo [UPDATE]
Fri, Jan 13 2017(UPDATE: Jalopnik is reporting an unidentified source claimed the new limo would not be featured in today's inauguration ceremony. The source did say however that the limo would join the presidential fleet later this year.) A rumor is going around that President-Elect Donald Trump will have a brand new set of wheels the day he takes office. The Cadillac Presidential Limousine, nicknamed "The Beast," was last refreshed in 2009 and led President Barack Obama's second inauguration-day parade. Cadillac could not confirm any timeline for the new presidential limo, nor could it confirm any specifics about the car nicknamed Beast 2.0. That's as expected, because details on the presidential limo are closely guarded and considered matters of national security. The outgoing original "Beast" limo marked a switch to a custom-built vehicle based on a General Motors truck frame. Previous limos were based on the actual cars they looked like. As we've seen in spy shots, The Beast 2.0 limo looks more like an Escalade SUV or CT6 sedan but is reported to be roughly the same size and shape as the old Beast, which is built on a Chevrolet Kodiak/GMC TopKick medium-duty truck chassis. AutoWeek is reporting that the new limo is set to debut for Trump's inauguration, however those reports could not be confirmed for the reasons mentioned above. The new Presidential car is expected to accommodate seven passengers in conference-style seating in the back like the current version. The Beast isn't meant for road trips, as it is mostly used to ferry the President to and from Air Force One when traveling, or on short trips around Washington D.C. That's good, considering the current limo only gets 3.7 miles per gallon. Along with multiple screens for video conferencing, The next Beast will also definitely include advanced armoring and weaponry. For security reasons, it's impossible to know the extent of those systems, but any vehicle transporting the most powerful man in the world around has to be tough. The entire process of designing and building the Presidential limo is top secret, as the Secret Service figures the less everyone knows about the Presidential Limo, the better. The new Beast, we can safely assume, is likely the safest vehicle in the world. The Secret Service began taking bids on building a replacement in 2014 because integrating all of the required armor is technically challenging.
