CADILLAC LOVERS LOOK NO FURTHER--- HERE IS A GEM!!! Title in Hand! 1976 CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE - 1 OWNER- 42K ACTUAL-
Up for auction is this very nice TOTALLY ORIGINAL 1976 CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE w/ 42,250 Actual/Original MILES - One owner car (same family, went to trust after original owner died, but again been with the same family since new with proof)
The MOTOR: this car is equipped with the 8.2L V8 500CI Rear Wheel Drive that has ONLY 42,250 ORIGINAL MILES (not even broke inn yet) - and this car runs and drives like new, power is all there and the transmission shifts smooth! Everything about this car is totally ORIGINAL, nothing aftermarket or added later- the car starts up everytime and you can drive anywhere anytime! The ELECTRICAL is ALL GOOD ALSO- lights and signals work just fine as well as gages on dash!
The POWER OPTIONS: Power windows, power locks, power driver seat, tilt wheel, AC, glove box trunk release, powered trunk when closing, all of these Powered Options WORK and the powered trunk you never find working yet it does! AM-FM Cassette and radio (radio does work)
The INTERIOR: the white leather seats are rip, stain and tear free! The red/ crushed red colored carpet is almost new looking (no flaws), the Original Red Colored Floor mats are still in the car and house the Cadillac Symbol (see pics) they too are also like new condition! The Headliner is like new as well; its unreal how nice it is actually, no rips, tears, or stains in the headliner; it is nicely intact and shows no signs of age or sagging! the doors both have one medium sized slit/crack (see pic) but not bad at all- The Window seals are tight and have no leaking or issues to address. The dash board is amazing, looking like it did in 1976 when bought new! The glove box works and operates properly housing a trunk release button and the ORIGINAL PAPERWORK from when bought new. This car has been smoke free since day one (obvious) - the steering wheel looks mint still and literally has no signs of age or over use! Its hard to believe because of its original condition and age how NICE the interior actually is! But to see it is to believe it because its so very obvious- NO INTERIOR disappointments here at all!!
The EXTERIOR: Hard to complain about this cars exterior at all, very very few issues but im gonna share them with you all- This car is a head turner and stands very tall!!! Proud to be seen in it and everyone always compliments us as we cruise around Southern Indianapolis --- This Caddy has ALWAYS BEEN GARAGE KEPT and again its OBVIOUS-the car is straight as an arrow with no body damage at all to mention, NO RUST AT ALL however there are like 3 small surface spots (quarter size literally., see pics) the 3 spots I am referring to are on the drivers side right below the small back seat window, these spots are honestly small and not even noticed at all unless standing 3 foot away or closer; again see pics to be clear- these spots are very surface and easily fixed! Also on the drivers door half way down right above the chrome trim piece there is a few small scratches not to bad at all actually (see pics) The cars Antenna works like new and goes up and down at choice via a button inside (another power feature) the chrome base piece around the bottom of antenna is missing (been gone for years now)- Finally, the rear clip! The rear clips on these cars are notorious for this- kinda discolored because GM didn't use the same body material (rubber made and dry out) the reason GM did this was for safety purposes its rubber because its known as an impact area - its not real bad by any means but it is clear to see and the rear clip has some cracks in it (the rear clip is not part of the body, instead its a totally separate piece itself) (see pics)--- the rear light fixture is missing the left side chrome wrap, the right is there to see what im referring to. (see pics) the Original Hood Emblem is nicely intact and stands Cadillac Tall!!! Also the underbody and frame are nice; rust free and again always garage kept (this car was rustproofed when bought new, hint the level of exterior quality) the exhaust is solid and also rust free and showing no signs of issues at all- Nice exterior overall for sure!
Overall on a scale of 1 to 10 I personally rate this car a SOLID NINE (9) needs very little help to be showroom worthy! Hard to find a Cadillac today that is A- totally ORIGINAL B- been cared for by the same family its entire life (obviously well cared for, its shows to see) C- has Original Miles 42k D- needs ZERO interior work etc etc - I could keep going on and on about the level of quality here!

2015 Cadillac Escalade gets 8-speed auto, range-topping Platinum Collection trim
Mon, 11 Aug 2014The redesigned 2015 Cadillac Escalade is still quite fresh on the market, but the luxury brand has a host of mid-model-year updates for its massive luxury SUV that should make it an even better driver. The range-topping Platinum Collection (pictured above) is also all set to ensconce drivers in leather when it hits the road in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The entire Escalade range now gets an eight-speed automatic to replace the previous six-speed, and four-wheel drive models also get a two-speed transfer case to go along with it. New standard features include a Surround View camera system, 4G LTE connectivity, and the electric tailgate also now closes hands-free, in addition to opening that way.
To make riding in the Escalade an even more luxurious experience, Cadillac is adding a Platinum trim. Exterior changes add even more shine to the behemoth SUV with a grille wearing the redesigned brand crest, additional chrome trim, 22-inch wheels and Platinum badges. However, the interior is where things really get plush. The first and second row of seats are wrapped in Nappa, semi-aniline leather in a choice of either beige or gray. The dashboard, upper door panels and center console also get hand-stitched and wrapped leather, plus a suede microfiber headliner. Both front seats are heated and cooled with 18-way power adjustments, and the driver even gets a massaging function. Rear passengers are hardly left out, either, with 7-inch LCD screens in the headrests and a 9-inch screen in the center.
Best and Worst GM Cars
Thu, Apr 7 2022Oh yes, because we just love receiving angry letters from devoted Pontiac Grand Am enthusiasts, we have decided to go there. Based on a heated group Slack conversation, the topic came up about the best and worst GM cars. First of all time, and then those currently on sale, and then just mostly a rambling discussion of Oldsmobiles our parents and grandparents owned (or engineered). Eventually, three of us made the video above. Like it? Maybe we can make more. Many awesome GM cars are definitely going unmentioned here, so please let us know your bests and worsts in the comments below. Mostly, it's important to note that this post largely exists as a vehicle for delivering the above video that dives far deeper into GM's greatest hits and biggest flops, specifically those from the 1980s and 1990s. What you'll find below is a collection of our editors identifying a best current and best-of-all-time choice, plus a worst current and worst-of-all-time choice. Comprehensive it is not, but again, comments. -Senior Editor James Riswick Best Current GM Vehicle Chevrolet Corvette We were flying by the seats of our pants a bit in this first outing and my notes were similarly extemporaneous. When it came time to tie it all together on camera, I failed spectacularly. Thank the maker for text, because this gives me the opportunity to perhaps slightly better explain my convoluted reasoning. I chose the C8 Corvette because it's simply overwhelmingly good, and it's merely the baseline from which this generation of Corvette will be expanded. While the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (more on that in a minute) is an amazing snapshot of GM's current performance standing and its little sibling so enraptured me that I went out and bought one, their existence is fleeting. Corvette will live on; forced-induction Cadillac sport sedans, not so much. So while all three are amazing machines when viewed in a vacuum, the Corvette stands above them as both a reflection of GM's current performance credentials and a signpost of what is to come. So, given the choice between the C8 and the 5V-Blackwing right now, I'd choose the C8. In 10 years, when the Blackwing is no longer in production and Corvette is in its 9th generation? Well, that might be a different story. Now, just pretend I said something even remotely that coherent when we get to the part of the video where I try to make an argument for the 5-V Blackwing as best GM car I've ever driven. Or just laugh at me while I ramble incoherently.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
