1999 Cadillac Eldorado on 2040-cars
Caldwell, Ohio, United States
|
This is a 1999 Cadillac Eldorado. The body is in good condition. I will begin by explaining the good things about this car then I will tell the bad things. The original engine/drive train was removed a year ago, the engine began overheating. I was facing either getting rid of it for a couple hundred dollars or repairing it. I found a car locally that was in the midst of an estate settlement. It was another 99 Cadillac that was owned by an elderly man that never permitted anyone to drive it. The car was dismantled because of no clear title. The entire drive train was switched. Transmission, axles, engine, struts, etc. This engine had 96,000 miles on it. The oil was clean. A local mechanic did the switch. The body has about 225,000 miles on it and given the condition I decided to fix it.
With the cost of the drive train and to have it switched cost about $2600.
The rear shocks were replaced a couple years ago. All new brake lines, one brake caliper, master cylinder and water pump. Air conditioning work. This amounted to another $700.
The engine runs smooth with no knocks or other noises, does not burn oil. It has extremely fast acceleration. The North Star Engine is strong. It cruises along nicely. It starts easily. The heated leather seats during cold months are very nice.
The bad. This car is going on 15 years old. The chassis has 220,000 miles on it. You should not expect this car to be like a new $50,000 Cadillac. Although the body is in good condition there are some details that need attention. The front bumper does not fit perfectly and the little trim pieces on the bumpers are loose. A rear brake lens is cracked. There are dings and small scratches. The air conditioner was charged last June and within a few weeks it lost its charge. The sun roof does not work well. There are dash light notifications showing anti lock brakes and occasional other messages. Purchase this car with the idea that the anti lock brake system may or may not be working. Other dash light notices do not seem to affect the running or driving of this car.
The pictures give a good idea of the condition. BUT I have found that often the pictures do make a car look a little better than the condition you will find in person. So, I want to be clear about what you will find if you buy this car. I would answer any questions. I want to make every effort to describe this car accurately to complete a transaction where the buyer and I am satisfied while maintaining my 100% positive feedback. Area code 740 my exchange is 581 and last 4 digits is 0114. We have a clear Ohio Title, it is located at zip 43724, I may be able to assist with delivery or shipping.

Cadillac CT6 hybrid likely to appear in Shanghai
Fri, Apr 3 2015Cadillac is poised to reveal a hybrid version of the CT6 sedan later this month at the Shanghai Motor Show. Rumors have swirled of the sedan's pending reveal, and General Motors product chief Mark Reuss reportedly confirmed its existence last fall during an investor conference. On Wednesday, Reuss again said that GM is working on the hybrid CT6, and when asked by Autoblog, he hinted at the pending debut. "We've really got to wait until we finish rounding out the portfolio," he said. "The Shanghai show is where you should look for all of it. So stay tuned." A Cadillac spokesman declined to comment, but confirmed "we will add variants." The brand has already announced two V6 engines and is looking to expand the line. Reuss also said GM has considered a V-Series model for the CT6, but it's focusing on launching the four-cylinder and V6-powered sedans first and promoting V-Series versions of the CTS and ATS that arrive this year. "The [CT6] architecture is certainly capable of doing it," he said. "The question is who's going to buy the CT6? What kind of person? And do we need a V-Series off of that is the question we haven't answered yet. It's certainly capable of doing it ... we've certainly thought about it." Details of the hybrid powertrain aren't known, but it could use plug-in technology. Chevrolet announced the 2016 Malibu will get a hybrid model that employs electric powertrain features from the new generation of the Volt. For the CT6, electric-vehicle technologies would likely be used to extend range and aid the performance of the conventional engine. Related Video:
Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.
2016 Cadillac CT6 shows crisp sense of style in leaked images
Tue, Mar 31 2015You're looking at the 2016 Cadillac CT6, aided by the almost inevitable internet-aided leak, ahead of its debut at the New York Auto Show this week. As you can see, the overall shape is straight-edged and aggressive, and overall in keeping with what we've seen from Cadillac over the last several years. High-tech lighting clusters extend from the fender peaks all the way down in what appear to be LED strips toward the lower fascia and its rectangular fog lights. A suitably massive grille encrusted in chrome boasts one of the larger Wreath and Crest badges we've ever witnessed on a car. Under that sharply creased hood will sit a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine with 400 horsepower at its disposal, according to Cadillac, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. A naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6 will also be available, we're told. We may wish for an edgier range-topping sedan from Cadillac, but it's not really fair to draw any real conclusions from just one leaked image. In other words, stay tuned, 'cause the rest of the story won't be far behind.
