Up for sale is this Fantastic 2008 Cadillac XLR Convertible. This Caddy is has only 49,000 miles and is a great, reliable vehicle. The exterior of this high-line vehicle is finished in Cranberry Red and complimented with the Black leather interior. Unfortunately, this car was involved in a light front impact and its being sold with a Rebuilt title from New York. The air bags did not deploy and the frame rails are straight and untouched. The suspension is also all good and the vehicle steers arrow straight and lot drives perfectly. The motor and transmission are also 100% and suffered no damage at all. It will not take much to get this vehicle in great shape again. The vehicle will need 2 headlights, 2 fenders, a front bumper, a grill, a radiator (this one may be fixable), a drivers side door glass, and an upper radiator support (which cost $80 on ebay). The hood is good and suffered no damage. 
This vehicle has a Rebuilt title, so the vehicle can be driven after is it fixed. This vehicle will NOT have no go through any kind of state inspection or anything like that. It can be titled in your name immediately. I am selling it with an open-title as well. This is a BIG plus!
This Cadillac is in perfect mechanical condition and everything works the way it should, and I mean everything! Every single light bulb lights up and every switch functions properly. Even the tire pressure sensors work the way they should.The only thing that will need attention is the convertible top will need to be reset. The top always worked fine but after the accident, and the vehicle sitting for a few months in my garage, the top has stopped working. I am told that the computer for the top will need to be recalibrated and then it will work. It has always worked perfectly in the past, so I dont see it being a problem to get that done. This is a common thing to do on these cars. Every other feature in the car is working 100%.  
The car has 49k on it, which is very low for a Cadillac, especially one this age. This car was maintained top notch and has always had its maintanence done. The oil changes are up to date and Mobil 1 was always used in this vehicle.
This vehicle spent most of its life in the garage, so it was never subjected to a cold or wet climate. So, you know this car was maintaned the way it should and no expense was spared. This car just had its oil and tranny fluid serviced, has good brakes, good rotors, and wiper blades.
This Caddy is loaded up with all the rare options. It has leather heated seats, power folding convertible top, Heads-up display panel, upgraded BOSE sound system with CD player, Navigation, rear parking sensors, power tilt steering wheel, remote keyless entry, chrome  alloy wheels, real burl wood trimming, memory settings, automatic rain sensing wipers, fog lamps, power seats, power mirrors, power locks, automatic power windows, and all the power accessories that you would expect from a XLR.
The car comes with the original Cadillac key with remote fob. We also have the all the original owners manuals and booklets.
The exterior of the car looks nice and clean, even though the front needs fixing. The paint is in nice overall condition and the car shows well but will need some of the work done in the front, as mentioned. There are no dents or scratches on the vehicle otherwise.
The interior of the car is immaculate. The seats are is fantastic condition and show no wear at all. The wood trims and leather has held up amazingly and it is all intact. The carpets and other panels are all in great shape and all the mechanicals and electricals are 100%. Every single feature in this vehicle is working the way it should. There is no surprises or dissappointments with this vehicle. Its a cool car all the way and will provide someone with a really great value for their money.
This car is being sold as-is, where-is, and there is no warranties expressed or implied. This vehicle has a Rebuilt title from New York. It is YOUR responsibility to find out the laws and regulations for titling this vehicle in your state. If you would like to see the car and test drive it, you are more than welcome to do so. Also, feel free to ask me about the buy-it-now price. If you are located outside my local area, I will assist in any way possible in having the car shipped to you at your cost. A $500 non-refundable deposit must be made within 24 hours on the auctions end. The remaining balance must be paid in full by 3 days after the closing of the auction unless other arrangements are discussed with me in advance. With that being said, feel free to email, call, or text me at anytime if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks and good luck bidding!

Cadillac considering ultra-luxe, $100k+ Escalade

Tue, Sep 22 2015

The Cadillac Escalade has pushed incrementally up-market over the years. From its humble Chevy/GMC truck underpinnings, the latest Escalade starts at $72,970 and tops out at $96,940. But according to the latest reports, Cadillac is weighing an even more upscale version. Though the exact nature of the upgrades that would push the Escalade further up-market remain unknown – and perhaps undecided at this point – the impetus for such a move is crystal clear. European luxury SUVs keep getting more and more expensive, both from established players and new challengers. Bentley just launched the Bentayga, and other luxury marques like Rolls-Royce, Aston Martin, Jaguar, Maserati, and Lamborghini are all getting into the game. All the while manufacturers like Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz keep rolling out ever more expensive offerings, like the Range Rover Autobiography and anticipating forthcoming Maybach sport-ute. To challenge those European imports with their astronomic price tags, Cadillac could go with an even higher trim level than its existing Platinum spec – or it could go with a more powerful, performance-oriented Escalade V or Vsport. Getting that big a vehicle to hustle would require a lot of power, but then General Motors has never been one to shy away from slotting a bigger engine into its vehicles. One thing's for certain though, and that's that Cadillac isn't quite done with pushing the Escalade higher up the market.

Cadillac calling in 4,900 CTS-V models for brake issue

Fri, Apr 24 2015

General Motors is recalling just over 4,900 first-generation Cadillac CTS-V sedans built between September 6, 2003 and June 11, 2007. The affected vehicles are largely registered in cold weather states where rock salt is used on roads. The salt could corrode the front brake hose's fitting in the brake calipers, which could lead to a brake fluid leak, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's bulletin reads. Needless to say, that would make slowing down the Corvette-powered Caddy a challenge. The affected vehicles were registered and/or sold in the following states: Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia. GM is set to begin notifying owners of the affected vehicles, who will need to report to dealers to have both front brake hose assemblies replaced. Repairs are, naturally, free of charge. Scroll down for the official NHTSA bulletin. Report Receipt Date: APR 15, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V225000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 4,907 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V vehicles manufactured between September 6, 2003, and June 11, 2007, currently registered, or originally sold, in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. In the affected vehicles, snow or water containing road salt or other contaminants may corrode the front brake hose fitting at the caliper. CONSEQUENCE: Corrosion may cause the brake system to leak which could lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle and increase the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace both front brake hose assemblies, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 15149. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 10V-105. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable

Sun, 10 Aug 2014

A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
