Up for a "no reserve" auction is an absolute studding 2DR 1979 Cadillac Coupe Deville that has been garage kept it's entire life. This Cadillac has had just 2 owners and the 83 year old 2nd owner owned it since 1980. This Caddy has a very rare color combination & it is stunning. The springtime yellow exterior is all original except for the rear fillers, which were done with the heavy duty replacements. The body is laser straight and the paint is remarkable for being more than 34 years old. Nice luster that is smooth to the touch. Contrasting yellow 1/4 vinyl roof with opera lights. No rust under the top trim moldings like most have. The chrome grill and bumpers are truly spectacular, they gleam, no pitting or fade. The yellow leather interior is equally impressive and still smells like new. The leather is all original and only flaw I could find is a small area on the lower back of the drivers bolster, no rips. The door panels are all original with no cracks, tears or fading. The olive dash with woodgrain is gorgeous and the chrome vents are like new. The golden cut pile carpeting still has it's original sheen and looks nice. The carpets are covered by the original Cadillac floor mats. The drivetrain consists of the powerful 7.0 Litre 425ci 180HP/320TQ V/8 engine, runs and sounds great. No leaks or smoke, it does have just 60K, recent replacement of belts and hoses. Recently replaced the A/C compressor and dryer with GM Delco replacement parts R-34 Freon. Transmission shifts on the dime with no slipping. I kept the engine valve covers original and not all painted up to hide anything. Nicely equip for the year also tested and seems to be working properly are the door locks, tilt, cruise, power seat, factory AM/FM with 8-track tape player. Power antenna also works. As noted also has new ice cold air conditioning. **Car is also for sale locally buyer reserves right to sell and end auction early.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
