I had originally bought the car to be used as a weekend driver, and to take it to e few local car shows. I just have too many other projects going on right now, and do not have the time to work on it anymore. The car to the best of my knowledge is all original from the ground up, other then any repairs I have made. This is the Biaritz Eldorado, so it was the top of the line Eldorado at the time.
Condition of interior: All of the power lock, windows, and seats work. The radio and power antenna work good, as well as all the speakers. I put a new head liner in, but would need to be finished. The rear side panels over the back seat were damage and could not be save. I found two replacements, but are white, and would have to be died red to match. The leather seats are in great shape, and show no real signs of wear. Everything else in the interior is in great shape with little to no signs of wear.
Condition of exterior: I was told the car was stored all winter long, and was inside when not being driven. So there is just some minor rust in a couple areas, but you need to be up close to find. All the chrome is in great shape, with little to no pitting. The stainless roof is in great shape, and the vinyl part of the roof is in great shape as well. The automatic trunk latch works well also.
Drivability: Just before I put the car into storage, the computer would only allow it to run in limp mode. According to the Cadillac manual I have for the car the computer is not communicating with the distributor. So it may either be the ignition module, or a signal failure on the signal wire. I have just not had the time to make the repair. Before this failure the car ran like a top, and went down the road just as well. I went through and replace every gasket I could on the motor, and put a new timing set in as well. I had the gas tank cleaned and lined, with a new fuel pump installed. I also started to put in a gauge cluster, to show temp, voltage, and oil pressure. As the car only came with indicator lights in the dash.
Things you would have to do: The gauge cluster has to finish being installed. .The bottom of the dash is removed, so I could access the computer to troubleshoot the ignition issue. Other then that you shouldn't have to do anything else with the car.
List of things to go with the car, Cadillac factory repair manual and electrical diagram, 2nd Engine computer. I also have a radiator core support, head light and grill assembly with the grill and headlights to go with the car.

2014 Cadillac XTS gets 410-hp twin-turbo V6
Tue, 14 May 2013General Motors told us so back in March, but it is now official: The twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 announced for the 2014 Cadillac CTS will also join the options list for the 2014 Cadillac XTS. The LF3 engine puts out 410 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque in the XTS, however, which is 10 hp and 61 lb-ft down from its application in the CTS. It will be identifiable from the outside by a specific grille treatment and a badge on the decklid. The 3.6-liter V6 with 304 hp and 264 lb-ft holds steady as the standard engine, and both will be yoked to a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
Also new for the front-wheel drive model for 2014 are updates that include electric power steering and optional Automatic Parking Assist that can maneuver the sedan into parallel parking spots. The three trims above standard - Luxury, Premium and Platinum - get Intellibeam headlights that automatically switch between high- and low-beam,
The four current trim levels remain but the list of optional extras for the higher specs grows with a rear-seat entertainment system equipped with DVD screens in the front seatbacks, memory settings for the front passenger seat and an armrest in the back seat fitted with radio and sunshade controls. The press release below has more info on all of the changes.
2016 Cadillac CTS-V to hit dealers this summer, start at $83,995*
Wed, Apr 29 2015Cadillac has announced pricing for the 640-horsepower CTS-V, and not only will the new super-sedan outgun its heartiest German rivals, it'll undercut them on price, too. Kicking off at $83,995 (not including a $995 destination charge), the CTS-V is nearly $10,000 less than the 560-hp BMW M5, almost $18,000 less than the 577-hp Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic, and is nearly $25,000 less than the 560-hp Audi RS7. So in case you were wondering, yes, the CTS-V will continue to be one of the auto industry's very best high-performance bargains in its third generation. "V-Series represents the pinnacle of Cadillac, a brand that now makes drivers' cars at the highest level," Cadillac's head honcho Johan de Nysschen said in a statement. "The new CTS-V is essentially two cars in one: a luxury sedan with sophisticated road manners and a track-capable sports car with awe-inspiring performance. This type of car is exclusive, the domain of the few who can access this level of incredible capability. V-Series matches or overtakes the finest cars in this elite class, while being more accessible." As for when you can get your hands on bargain-priced beast, dealers are now accepting orders, with deliveries slated to begin late this summer. Scroll on down for the official release from Cadillac. Next-Generation 640-hp Cadillac CTS-V Launches This Summer U.S. DEALERS BEGIN ACCEPTING ORDERS NOW FOR CADILLAC'S UPCOMING PERFORMANCE ICON DETROIT – Cadillac announced today that U.S. dealers will begin accepting orders for the next-generation 2016 CTS-V, the all-new high-performance sedan that launches in late summer. The 640-hp CTS-V is the second of two all-new V-Series models to come to market in 2015, following the smaller ATS-V coupe and sedan, which launches in late spring. Cadillac's new 2016 V-Series models represent a significant expansion of the brand's elite, high-performance line. Not only are the new V-Series cars elevated in terms of performance, they now reach a broader spectrum of drivers by presenting two distinct personalities, size categories and price points. With a top speed of 200 mph and 0-60 performance in 3.7 seconds, the CTS-V is the most powerful car in Cadillac's 112-year history. The 2016 CTS-V is priced from $83,995. Customers can place orders now with dealers and view additional product information at Cadillac.com. The CTS-V elevates into the elite group of the world's highest-performing sedans.
