Cadillac Xlr Star Black Edition Modified Custom Restomod Xlr-v Rims Bulgari Nr! on 2040-cars
Atlantic Beach, Florida, United States
You are bidding on a 2004 Cadillac XLR Star Black Edition. This is #35 of 200 made. CEO owned and driven 75 miles daily to and from the office as a trophy car. Clear title in hand, although the carfax may say there is a lien it is satisfied for this sale.
This car was originally developed as the EVOQ while under development by General Motors and became the first generation XLR. Manufactured on the Corvette assembly line, based on a Corvette Frame, with 50th Anniversary Corvette Magnetic Suspension, 5 speed manual shift Corvette Automatic Transmission and a more powerful than normal Northstar VVT 32 Valve Engine, this is the pinnacle American car in my opinion. This car rivals the technology available in most new cars today, and uses the same technology and supplier as the Mercedes SL500 & SL600 to achieve the hard top with such light weight and reliability. If you are a shy person, do not purchase this car, because people ask about it every day you drive it. The A/C is ice cold, heated and cooled seats make it much more comfortable with the top down. This car has extensive dealer service records, nearly every component that was known to cause problems in this series of cars has been replaced by GM under warrantee. Vehicle has been more than regularly serviced always using synthetic oils and top quality parts. In early 2013 a new pair of driver & passenger seats and center console shifter were installed so the interior looks very fresh. (At a cost of nearly $8000) Also later in 2013, at 110,000 miles the transmission and torque converter was overhauled. Then at 122,000 miles, the entire engine was reworked, including the new and improved valve guides added to the rebuilt, ported and polished head as well as new electronic variable valve timing controllers, at a cost of over $5000. As you can see from the photos, this is car number 3 in my stable of 13. I love and care for this car just as I do my Bentley #1, Jaguar #4, Lotus #5, Shelby #6, Ferrari #2 and other toys. Mileage is at 140,000 but I will keep driving it a few days a week until it sells, because I do love this car! Factory standard features include: Keyless Entry with two fobs included in the sale! Adaptive cruise control. Adaptive rain sensors. Heads up display with radio, MPH, trailing distance when adaptive cruise is on and many other heads up features. Steering wheel controls for Stereo, Cruise Control Gap & Voice Command. Verbal command unit in steering wheel which includes navigation controls. 6 Disc CD Changer in dash with single disc DVD / CD / NAV player. In dash navigation, including DVD viewing override, so you can watch movies while driving the car (great for passengers to enjoy, not so good for the driver to do). Dual Zone Climate Control with Cooled and Heated seats for driver and passenger. 42 position electronic adjustable seats for driver and passenger. TPMS sensors. Onstar safety system. Factory upgraded features include: Bulgari Speedometer and Tachometer Gauges! REAL WOOD VENEER INTERIOR TRIM, NOT THE PLASTIC USED IN LATER MODELS! The tail lights and front grille are blacked out, with gun metal colored badges not available through Cadillac any longer. She is riding on a fresh set of rear tires, and the set of rims are XLR-V factory that have no wear as they are new. All functions perform as they should. Non Factory Upgraded Features include: All LED bright white lighting, including interior, trunk, license plate and doors. D3 Racing Catalytic Converters installed D3 Racing ECU Installed (Google "D3 Cadillac" to see what I am talking about here.) These D3 upgrades make the car a bit more muscular and responsive, but it is less "tame" at idle and sounds quite a bit more throaty than a standard XLR. The bad news: Under the hood, one of the hood mounts is missing so the hood will not stay up on it's own. The car has several nicks and dings that you would expect given age & mileage. There is a scratch on the tourneau cover that is about 1 inch in a triangular pattern. Next to the driver seat there is a crack in the lateral entry panel trim cover. This is a cheap plastic part from GM that has broken several times over the years so I am tired of replacing it. If you are a big guy or gal, you will break this piece entering and leaving the car, if you are thin, you can replace it and it will stay fixed... Paint is a 9 at 20 feet, a 8 at 10 feet and a 7 close up. Photos of all major blemishes and scratches have been provided herein. Thank you for viewing this auction and good luck with your bidding!

Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:

Cadillac reveals more 2015 Escalade details, launches colorizer
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Cadillac has opened up a mini-site to entice you into its all-new 2015 Escalade, and begun talking about more of its features and trim levels. While all versions of the new daddy Caddy will be powered by a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque routed through a six-speed automatic, there will be three trim packages you can wrap around that powertrain and seven exterior colors available to make it pop.
Features common to all trims include leather throughout, heated and cooled front seats, a 12-inch reconfigurable dash cluster, a quieter interior thanks to Bose active noise cancellation and the brand's love/hate CUE infotainment system. The base trim comes with adaptive remote start, hands-free tailgate, rear-view camera, park assist, Magnetic Ride Control and sits on 20-inch wheels. Moving up to the Luxury spec increases your stature with 22-inch wheels and adds a reconfigurable, color head-up display, a sunroof, power fold-and-tumble second row seating, Intellibeam headlights and a Driver Awareness Package with active crash-avoidance technology like Safety Alert Seat, lane departure warning and forward collision alert.
The top Premium trim gets a Driver Assist Package that includes Automatic Collision Preparation, automatic braking and adaptive cruise control, rear-seat entertainment, along with exterior touches like illuminated door handles.
GM recalls 2014 Cadillac CTS recall
Wed, 02 Jul 2014No, that headline isn't a typo - General Motors has reportedly issued a recall for one of its own recalls. The recall of a recall affects the recall of the 2014 Cadillac CTS, which wasn't supposed to be recalled. Except that the 2014 CTS was supposed to be recalled. Oh no, now we've gone cross-eyed.
Allow us to explain. The redesigned, third-generation CTS Sedan does not feature a faulty ignition switch, while the 2014 CTS Coupe and Wagon, which are based on the second-gen car, do. And as it turns out, there are only 264 of those vehicles included in last week's 8.2-million-unit, ignition-switch recall. Model year 2003 to 2013 CTS Sedans, Coupes and Wagons are still covered.
It's not entirely clear how this, frankly, colossal mistake was made, although we're betting GM is rapidly trying to get to the bottom of this embarrassing issue. Regardless, let's just take what solace we can in there being one less vehicle that GM has recalled this year.
