NorthStar V8 ENGINE, Moonroof, Heated Leather Seats, Top of the line Bose 5.1 Theater Sound System with 15 speakers (including Subwoofer), Navigation System, On-Star Communications System, Hands-free cellular phone capability, 17" Wheels, New set of Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Plus tires (less than 3,000 miles), size 245/50R17, V-Rated, with new rear disc brakes. The Temporary Spare Tire has never been on the road or removed from its under-floor space in the fully-lined trunk. This was my mother-in-law's car. She bought it outright, nearly new, with a lien-free title. Over the next few years she kept it completely maintained by the local Cadillac dealer (who will vouch for its regular maintenance, supported by a thick bundle of receipts that will go with the car), garaged it all the time, and always babied it. Now that Mother no longer drives, this has become an extra car for us, so we are selling it to free up garage space for our cars. There are NO DOCUMENTARY FEES as found in other car ads. We have the clear, lien-free title (not a flood or salvage title). We are located in Abilene, Texas, 150 miles West of Fort Worth/150 miles East of Midland, Texas on Interstate 20. Abilene Regional Airport is served by an American Airlines subsidiary carrier with 8 flights in/out per day. If you want to fly in, we will pick you up at the airport at no charge. Our region seldom experiences ice or snow and is in a drought with very little rainfall, even by our standards. That has been the case since Mother bought it and there is obviously no rust or other weather-related issues of any type. 1SE equipment package is a thoroughly comprehensive equipment package offered by Cadillac.

Highlights of Edmunds 2008 Cadillac STS Review What's New for 2008 The 2008 Cadillac STS has been significantly
updated with revised styling and a more luxuriously trimmed interior and a
six-speed automatic transmission. Introduction The 2008 Cadillac STS
slots in between the inexplicably top-selling DTS land yacht sedan and the
sporty midsize CTS. To keep pace with its
more attention-grabbing sibling (as well as other larger luxury sport sedans),
the 2008 Cadillac STS has been revised inside and out. The wide, two-level
egg-crate grille is particularly striking, and the improved cabin trim is bound
to get the attention of full-size luxury car shoppers. We've always liked the current STS, and the
revised 2008 edition makes it even more endearing. Meanwhile, the STS' ride and
handling continues to impress with moves that almost make you forget you're
driving a sedan that's 6 inches longer and 200 pounds heavier than an E350.
Having a price that undercuts the competition by thousands doesn't hurt either. Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options The 2008 Cadillac STS is
a large luxury sport sedan available in V6 and V8 models. Both versions feature
17-inch wheels, leather seating, wood and alloy-look interior trim, eight-way
power front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, remote keyless entry
and vehicle start, satellite radio, an eight-speaker Bose sound system and
OnStar. The V8 version adds a CD changer, memory seating presets, heated seats
(front and rear), a heated steering wheel and rain-sensing wipers. Other features available on both models (in
packages or as a la carte items) include a sunroof, xenon headlamps, and heated
front and rear seats. The navigation system is bundled with a Bose
surround-sound audio system. (Seller's
note: This STS has all of the foregoing.) Powertrains and Performance The optional engine choice is a 4.6-liter V8
making 320 hp and 315 lb-ft of torque. Both engines come only with a six-speed
automatic transmission. Safety Antilock disc brakes, stability control and a
full complement of airbags are standard on every Cadillac STS. The airbags
include front-seat side and full-length side curtains. In Insurance Institute
for Highway Safety frontal-offset crash testing, the STS scored a rating of
"Good," the highest possible. It scored a second-best rating of
"Acceptable" for side-impact protection. Interior Design and Special Features Cadillac snazzed up the STS interior
significantly for 2008 with higher-quality wood and the addition of tasteful
alloy trim. A sporty new steering wheel looks and feels better, while more
wheel-mounted controls have been added. The good fit and finish remains and
luxury buyers should be pleased with this Cadillac's generally high-class
ambience. Controls are straightforward and easy to use, with the exception of
the confounding memory-setting procedure for the driver seat, mirrors, radio
and climate controls. Unlike traditional systems, which place buttons on the
door or driver seat, you must dive deep into the navigation touchscreen to set
memory functions. It's frustrating and unnecessarily complicated, but at least
it's something done only occasionally. Driving Impressions Although large in size,
the 2008 Cadillac STS sedan feels three-fourths its size when driven with
enthusiasm, yet it rides like a supple luxury car when you're gobbling up the
miles on the highway. Braking is strong as well, with progressive pedal action
and an impressively short 120-foot stopping distance from 60 mph. SELLER'S WARRANTY INFORMATION This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed, written, or implied.

Cadillac ATS-V and Mercedes-AMG C63 S pitted Head to Head
Fri, Sep 4 2015Our favorite (and only) Autoblog-alum-turned-Motor Trend staffer is back with another Head to Head video, this time pitting the Cadillac ATS-V with the Mercedes-AMG C63 S. This performance machine shootout is ostensibly a way to figure out which of these new super sedans will earn the right to go toe-to-toe with the undisputed champion of its segment, the BMW M3. In reality, it's just a really good excuse to put three of the hottest sedans on the market on video at the same time... and there's certainly nothing wrong with that. Jonny Lieberman spends time in each of the two new challengers on the road, picking apart their powertrains, chassis and driving dynamics on the kinds of twisty roads drivers of these cars will relish. Then, he hands the keys off to Randy Pobst, who sort of acts as an unmasked version of a certain tame racing driver, except that he talks and has a personality. 0-60 and quarter-mile times are equated, braking performance is measured and scores are tallied before the two sport sedans end up at Willow Springs raceway. Interestingly enough, the car that proves (just slightly) faster at the race track isn't the car that wins the comparison. Curious? We're not going to spoil it for you. Check out the video, above. Then, for more action of these two machines, check out the videos just below.

Cadillac tops Tesla in Consumer Reports semi-automated driving test
Thu, Oct 4 2018General Motors' Cadillac outscored Tesla in a new ranking of partially automated driving systems tested by Consumer Reports and released on Thursday. The highly influential nonprofit organization, which tests and rates a variety of consumer products from appliances to vehicles, said it compared Cadillac's Super Cruise and Tesla's Autopilot with similar systems from Nissan and Volvo. Nissan's ProPilot Assist was ranked third and Volvo's Pilot Assist fourth. Consumer Reports said it has been testing partially automated driving systems for several years but elected to conduct a formal study intended for publication, because "we are at a tipping point where they are now going mainstream," according to Jake Fisher, director of auto testing. The organization said its tests, conducted on a private track and on public roads in Connecticut, were designed to measure the systems' ability to automatically control steering and speed in certain situations, while helping drivers pay attention and regain manual control of the vehicle when required. CR noted that any of these systems can increase driving risk if used in inappropriate situations, or if drivers become inattentive or over-reliant on them. While they can help relieve driver stress and fatigue, Consumer Reports said, the partially automated systems are "not intended to be self-driving features." The systems typically use cameras, radar and other sensors, as well as mapping data, to monitor location and traffic conditions and help keep a vehicle centered in the lane at a safe distance behind other cars. Each system has limitations. Cadillac's Super Cruise, for instance, only functions on divided highways that have been mapped by GM. In contrast, Tesla's Autopilot can be used even on small, curvy roads with poor lane markings, but "operates erratically in those situations," Consumer Reports said.The organization tested Super Cruise on the Cadillac CT6; Autopilot on the Tesla Model 3, Model X and Model S; ProPilot Assist on the Nissan Leaf and Infiniti QX50; and Pilot Assist on the Volvo XC40 and XC60. Consumer Reports said Cadillac's Super Cruise did "the best job of balancing high-tech capabilities with ensuring the car is operated safely and the driver is paying attention." Tesla's Autopilot was cited for its capability and ease of use, while Nissan's ProPilot Assist did a better job than Autopilot or Volvo's Pilot Assist in keeping drivers engaged.
GM recalls Cadillac ATS and Chevy Impala for separate issues
Fri, Feb 27 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added two recalls from General Motors in the government organization's daily update of safety campaigns. Both were for failing to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards but for completely separate reasons. The larger recall covers 58,698 units of the 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS, but it doesn't really carry huge safety concerns. In vehicles produced between April 25, 2012, and February 9, 2015, the controls for the tilt and slide of the moonroof are not recessed enough, as required by federal law. According to NHTSA, it's possible that someone could inadvertently activate the auto-close for the roof panel, which the agency claims increases "the risk of personal injury." Dealers will install a new trim plate that will add the necessary clearance. The other campaign covers 1,177 examples of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala from between November 15, 2012, and May 27, 2014. However, this is actually a repeat of a previous recall on the Chevy and the Cadillac XTS from 2014. The affected Impalas here "were remedied incorrectly" under the earlier campaign, according to NHTSA. On these sedans, it's possible the electronic parking brake might not fully disengage and still remain in some contact with the rotor, which is in violation of federal rules. The fault can cause excessive heat from the brakes that could potentially lead to a fire, according to NHTSA. To fix the problem, dealers will reprogram the electronic parking brake control module. Show full PR text RECALL Subject : Inadvertent Press of Roof Panel Switch/FMVSS 118 Report Receipt Date: FEB 24, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V106000 Component(s): VISIBILITY Potential Number of Units Affected: 58,698 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) CADILLAC ATS 2013-2015 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS vehicles manufactured April 25, 2012, to February 9, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the power-operated roof panels auto-close when the non-recessed "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No.
