I have for sale here a very solid and stylish 1955 Cadillac 62 4-door sedan.  This roomy '55 Cadillac has a very nice interior and rides nice!  The car runs and drives well.  Nice tires and good brakes.  The car starts right up and the engine sounds good.  The WWW tires really set off the white body against the blue interior and top.  This 6 passenger '55 Cadillac is very complete.  The interior is very comfortable. 

The bumpers are very solid, but do need rechroming.  The Creamy white body is solid, as is the contrasting blue top.  The paint is average.  The underside has normal surface rust, but is solid. I did not pull up the carpet, but the floors seem very good when the heel is stamped on them.  I think the top was recently painted.  I never got a trunk key from the previous owner.  The trunk floor seems OK from what I can tell by looking up from underneath.  The gas tank was recently replaced by previous owner. 

Much of the interior was redone in the original style by the prio owner and it looks great!  The seats are nice.  The headliner is nice.  The dash is also in good shape and the guages are clear.  The steering wheel is in pretty decent shape.  The driver's door panel needs a little help. 

Nice wide whitewall tires with plenty of tread left.  Very nice original correct hubcaps.  Good stainless and glass makes the exterior very presentable. 

The following are things working: turn signals front and rear as well as their dash indicator arrows, brake lights, headlights, speedometer, fuel guage, wipers, gas fill in taillight, brakes, trans, engine runs good, heater and defroster blower, doors and hood open and shut well.  The following don't work: power windows, radio, clock(they rarely do), trunk lock/key. 

Overall, this is a very good '55 Cadillac cruiser to be enjoyed by 5-6 people driving around town. 

Please feel free to ask any questions.  Sold as-is.  In-person inspection is encouraged.

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

Cadillac Escalade driven by Tony Soprano for sale

Fri, Nov 6 2015

If you're a fan of The Sopranos imagining a trip to the Bada Bing, then check out this white 2003 Cadillac Escalade ESV for sale by RR Auction. James Gandolfini drove this luxury SUV in the role of Tony Soprano for the last three seasons of the mafia-themed series. Gandolfini also signed the interior to give you something to show off to your buddies. If you've ever watched the show, you've almost certainly seen this white SUV before. According to the auction listing, the series featured two Escalades, and this one was used for exterior shots. The Caddy even starred in an action scene in season 5 when Tony chased after Phil Leotardo. Gandolfini's signature appears inside twice: once with "Thanks for the truck, James Gandolfini" and again with just his name. The auction also includes a letter of authenticity that's signed by the actor, and a second document asserts the SUV's use in the series. Apparently, Gandolfini had a habit of signing messages in his vehicles from the show – at one point he wrote a threatening "Be nice to my car" message in a red Chevrolet Suburban from earlier episodes. The auction for Tony's Escalade runs from November 12-19, which still leaves plenty of time for a meeting of the families to decide to buy it. Bidding starts at $5,000, and according to The Drive, the consignor estimates a final price between $30,000 and $50,000. This sale should at least come to a more definitive end than The Sopranos did.
