Thanks for looking at my auction. Must first start by saying that this is my baby and I really hate to part with it but it is no longer practical for me to keep.  My loss, your gain.   You are looking at a rare '92 triple white Coupe deVille.  Never a daily driver, but really a very babied car. Stored winters (NEVER driven in inclement weather) covered, inside an airport hangar in metro Detroit.  It has been detailed regularly and washed almost every time it's driven.  Since I've owned the car, it has never seen an automatic car wash.   About 6 years ago the car was involved in a collision with a deer.   The right side view mirror was damaged, the right rear quarter glass was shattered and the vinyl top (right side) was punctured.  There was no sheet metal damage.   The insurance company totaled the car, I bought the car back from them and had the mirror replaced, right rear quarter glass replaced and the entire vinyl top replaced along with the underlying plastic shell (which gives the vinyl top it's shape.).  At the time that the vinyl top was replaced, the headliner was replaced also, along with the visors, from A pillars and the sail panels in the rear.  

Windshield was replaced at this time as well.  It was poorly installed and leaked, wetting the white headliner so there are faint water stains on the passenger side of headliner near the RH door.  The shoddy windshield job was, of course, redone and installed correctly with another new glass. 
I have kept up with repairs on this car with due diligence, and I will list the parts here: 
Delco GM A/C compressor
Delco GM A/C condenser 
low and high side A/C lines
Delco GM climate control module
Delco GM rear air ride shocks- correct original.  Rear end was beginning to sag, compressor would run often. 
Delco level ride compressor and dryer, as a precaution because it had been over taxed from the leaking air shocks
Delco level ride height sensor
Front struts and springs
Delco GM starter motor
Delco battery (march of this year)
Radiator replaced, along with upper and lower radiator hoses
Front brake pads and rotors
Front sway bar links and both lower ball joints.  
Rear lower ball joints 
Rear sway bar links
New front brake hoses, and lines to rear. 
Rear brake drums and shoes
New front and rear bumpers, new grill, front clip repainted 
Delco power antenna mast and motor 
Both front ABS wheel speed sensors, Delco
Delco power trunk pull down motor and switch 
Oil changes (semi-synthetic) every 6 months regardless of miles. 
Regular brake fluid flushes (should be done yearly on a car that isn't driven much)
Of course fuel filter and engine air filters replaced at correct factory recommended intervals 

Now for the problems
Paint on deck lid and roof is beginning to check as was common on GM cars of this era. 
CD player works sometimes, sometimes not.  CD player has already been rebuilt once, and all internal lamps for the buttons were replaced, using the correct color bulbs to match the other dash lights, it. worked for about a year and then began acting up. I refuse to install an aftermarket radio, as I've never seen one that actually looks nice.  Radio works perfectly AM and FM.   Also a common problem on these older Delco stereos, I've never had one that worked correctly / dependably.  Drivers seat is beginning to show it's age, slight cracking and some of the top layer of dye was peeled off drivers seat back side bolster (the side closest to the door) this does not show up really in the pictures, it's not bad, but I notice it.  Still, the leather on all seats is supple and soft.  Incredibly comfortable car.  Anyone who's owned or ridden in one of these knows- when you sink down into those big plush seats, you know you're in a Cadillac.  There is small area of rust at lower right hand corner of windshield that has been repaired twice and continues to come back. 

This car is a terrific highway cruiser, very smooth plush ride without feeling floaty / boaty.  
Can be expensive to operate being that it requires premium fuel, but power from this V8 is undeniable, it lends a very confident feeling behind the wheel.   A definite wolf in sheep's clothing.  The Vogue tires have about 12,000 miles on them, gold stripe on a couple of them has begun to fade.   The car has had a 4-wheel alignment yearly, whether it needs it or not.   So no uneven tread wear on the tires.   Drives smooth straight and quietly down the road.  In my opinion, this model is one of the best looking cars Cadillac has produced since the 1950's and 60's.  If you don't like attention from other motorists, you probably shouldn't bid on this car.   It turns heads everywhere, it's a very rare trip when I don't get at least one grin and a thumbs up.  This engine and transmission is a strong set up, these cars can go well over 200,000 miles if cared for.  My '93 Sedan deVille was still going strong at 270,00 when i totaled it.   Not sure what else to say in this description other than if you have any questions, please shoot me an email, I'm more than happy to answer questions or take specific pictures you may require.

2015 Cadillac ATS sedan gets early reveal in making-of video

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Cadillac is apparently preparing to roll out a minor facelift for the ATS sedan - which we know not because General Motors has already revealed it or because we're looking at it in a fresh batch of spy shots (though we've seen that too), but because a behind-the-scenes video from the filming of its commercial has leaked out online. Which may be bad news for Cadillac, and even worse news for the film production company, but good news for us, because we get to see it ahead of schedule.
The revised sports sedan seems to be sporting a new front bumper and less egg-cratey grille with Caddy's new wreath-less badge at its center, all apparently put in place to bring the sedan more in line with the new ATS coupe.
We're sure Cadillac will be revealing the updated 2015 ATS sedan shortly, but you can scope it out right now in the video below. By way of comparison, we've included an image gallery of the current ATS, released back in 2013, as well.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.

General Motors Recall List

Wed, Oct 22 2014

It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. We used the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall list to compile a snapshot of all the GM vehicles recalled in the last two months. NHTSA also provides a search engine that allows owners to search for recalls on their vehicle. An automotive company must do everything in their power to notify its customers when a recall is issued on a vehicle. If you own any of the following vehicles and you have questions regarding your car, you can contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339. Or check out General Motor's recall site. 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. Here's a brief summery of the other vehicles currently under recall: July 26 – 414,333 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V447000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. Problem: In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position. Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Solution: Dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. July 14 – 16,939 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V341000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured October 18, 2010, to June 2, 2011. Problem: In the affected vehicles, vibrations from the drive shaft may cause the vehicle's roll over sensor to command the roof rail air bags to deploy. Consequence: If the roof rail air bags deploy unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of crash and injury to the occupants.
