Abilene, Texas, United States
Excellent Condition, LOW MILES - 71,765 miles! (Miles may increase slightly due to occasional drives.) 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. OTHER FEATURES INCLUDE: Power Leather Heated Driver & Passenger Seats along with Heated Rear Seats, Satellite Radio, 2 Keyless Entry Key Fobs with Remote Engine Start, door lock & unlock, and trunk unlock, Triple Zone A/C, Remote Trunk Release button, Child Safety Locks, Steering Wheel Controls, Driver Information Center with MPG indicator (excellent mileage), tire and engine monitors, etc., Memory Driver's Seat (which controls seat, side-view mirrors, Heating/Air Conditioning, and Bose system), Keyless Push Button Start, & Heated Outside Rear View Mirrors. OTHER OPTIONS & FEATURES Please remember this is a 2008 model and is not new. Although the car is a very clean, low mileage car, the car does have a small number of scratches, dings, or nicks. There certainly aren't very many. We would rather have the new owner more satisfied than expected! You are more than welcome to see the car in person, before completing the transaction. There will be a $500 Paypal deposit due within 24 hours that will be credited to the final price. The oil and filter were recently changed with Mobile 1 oil by the local Cadillac dealer (Lawrence Hall, Abilene), who also checked the car over just before its extended warranty expired in May, 2014.

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, Daimler execs take swipes at Tesla
Tue, Apr 22 2014Despite the financial ties between Daimler and Tesla Motors, at least one Mercedes exec thinks the electric automaker doesn't have a bright future. And over at Cadillac, the message is that Tesla doesn't pose a threat but offers the luxury arm of General Motors more of classroom experience. The Mercedes story runs like this. Mercedes-Benz USA president and CEO, Steve Cannon, said at the New York Auto Show last week that Tesla has "no network" and only offers "little shops that don't have service capacity." He also said: "Folks are buying a Tesla now because they're kind of cool, but if you're a Tesla buyer, you have to have multiple cars. With Mercedes, you have a whole network. You've got no worries. ... Tesla is great, but you've got plenty of well-established brands that mean luxury, like Porsche or Mercedes-Benz, and how long do you think we're going to wait and let Tesla be out there alone [selling premium electric cars]?" "Treehuggers do not buy new luxury cars" – Uwe Ellinghaus For Cadillac's global chief marketing officer, Uwe Ellinghaus, Tesla's EV success represents little other than "a great opportunity and a learning exercise for all of us, and will help us traditional manufacturers to think twice about electric mobility." He added that, "I am not afraid of Tesla. ... There is no willingness to really sacrifice on the traditional qualities of a luxury car. These are not cars for treehuggers, as treehuggers do not buy new luxury cars." Ellinghaus made the comments during a panel discussion at the 2014 Automotive Forum. Perhaps the lesson of Tesla's offer of free Supercharging to Model S owners is what led to Cadillac to recently announce a deal with Chargepoint that gives ELR drivers access to that company's 16,500 charging stations. Read more details on that below. Cadillac and ChargePoint Bring EV Customer Luxury Driving Experience World's largest, most open electric vehicle charging network available to ELR drivers 2014-04-16 NEW YORK – Cadillac today announced a partnership with ChargePoint, the largest and most open electric vehicle-charging network in the world. The collaboration brings Cadillac ELR drivers immediate access to more than 16,500 charging locations on the ChargePoint network. The ELR electrified luxury coupe went on sale at the end of 2013. It embodies Cadillac's Art & Science design philosophy, combining provocative design with progressive technology.
GM sees 'strong year' in 2018, then gold in Chevy Silverado for 2019
Tue, Jan 16 2018DETROIT — General Motors said on Tuesday it expects earnings in 2018 to be largely flat compared with 2017, but that profits should pick up pace in 2019 as its revamped line of high-margin pickup trucks hits the U.S. market. The 2018 earnings outlook was above market expectations, sending GM shares up more than 3 percent in premarket trading. "GM had a very good 2017 as we continued to transform our company to be more focused, resilient and profitable," GM Chief Executive Mary Barra said in a statement. "We are positioned for another strong year in 2018 and an even better one in 2019." GM and its Detroit rivals, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, are bringing on new trucks at a time when overall U.S. new vehicle sales have been falling, but truck sales continue to grow as consumers abandon passenger cars in favor of pickups, SUVs and crossovers. GM on Saturday fired a new round in the battle for profits from one of the U.S. auto industry's most lucrative segments when it showed a new generation of its Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck at the Detroit auto show. The new Silverado, a highlight of the event, is the successor to GM's best-selling vehicle in North America. Sales of the current Silverado rose nearly 2 percent to 585,000 vehicles in 2017. In the coming months, the company will also reveal a revamped GMC Sierra pickup truck. U.S. new vehicle sales fell 2 percent in 2017 after hitting a record high in 2016, and are expected to drop further in 2018 as interest rates rise and more late-model used cars return to dealer lots to compete with new ones. GM said on Tuesday that while it retools a factory in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, to make the new pickup trucks, it will shift some production to an Oshawa, Ontario, plant in order to avoid missing sales in a hot market for the vehicles. The No. 1 U.S. automaker said it will record a $7 billion non-cash charge for its fourth-quarter 2017 earnings related to deferred tax assets. GM said it expects capital expenditure in 2018 of around $8.5 billion, about $1 billion of which will go toward funding self-driving car technology. Last week, the company said it is seeking U.S. government approval for a fully autonomous car — one without a steering wheel, brake pedal or accelerator pedal — to enter the automaker's first commercial ride-sharing fleet in 2019. GM said it expects 2017 earnings per share at the high end of its previously forecast range of $6 to $6.50.
GM cars and SUVs recalled for leaking transmission fluid
Thu, Nov 5 2020General Motors is recalling more than 194,000 vehicles from 2018 to 2020 due to transmission fluid leaks. The leaks stem from an auto stop-start component that may have been installed with loose or missing bolts. The leaking fluid can affect the transmission's performance, and if it leaks onto a hot exhaust component, could potentially cause a fire. GM says that to date, it knows of no accidents or injuries related to the defect. The issue affects models from all four GM divisions. From Chevrolet, the affected vehicles are: 2018 Malibu, 2018–2019 Cruze, 2018–2020 Equinox, 2018–2020 Traverse, 2019–2020 Blazer At Buick, the following models are included: 2018–2019 LaCrosse, 2019–2020 Encore, 2019–2020 Enclave, At GMC, the recall includes: 2018–2020 Terrain, 2019–2020 Acadia Cadillac has two affected vehicles: 2019–2020 XT4 and 2020 XT6 The recall is scheduled to begin in mid-December. Owners of the affected vehicles will be contacted. Dealers will inspect the transmission accumulator, and replace those with loose or missing bolts.
