58650 Miles, Excellent Condition, New Tires, Runs Great on 2040-cars
Mountain City, Tennessee, United States

Up for auction is a very nice 1997 Cadillac DeVille sedan in Gold over tan. The car only has 58,650 miles. It has been owned by my wife's family since September, 1997 and had only 14,346 miles when they purchased it. My father in law passed away only a few months after purchasing it and my mother in law rarely drove it. It has always been kept under a carport and out of the weather and the condition shows that. The paint still has the luster that it had when new and the leather interior is soft and supple and shows very little wear. The carpet is clean and the headliner and door panels all appear as in new condition. In addition to almost looking new on the outside the inside still smells new. I have pictured the bottom of the doors and they are as clean as when the car left the assembly line and obviously have no rust. The car has a few small dings that are difficult to photograph.
I have driven it a little over 400 miles since the first of the year and can report that the Northstar V-8 performs impeccably with smooth and strong power delivery while the 4-speed automatic shifts smooth and effortlessly. The car runs and handles very well. It sports a set of new Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring tires that, while quiet and smooth, provide excellent grip without sacrificing the smooth and effortless cruising these cars are known for. While installing the new tires the condition of the brake pads and rotors were examined and found to be in good condition. T The climate control works as it should whether it is 65 or 20 degrees all the while in auto mode. Just set the desired temp and the climate control does the rest. The cruise control works, all windows function as they should, the door locks work, power seat controls work and the soft close trunk function still performs as it should. Even the light under the hood still works as it should! What does not function properly? The power antenna does not retract although the motor operates so more than likely the gears are stripped. And the windshield washer pump does not function. The simple reason for selling is that we are at a point where we do not need a car like this. If you are looking for a Cadillac of this vintage you will be hard pressed to find another this clean. All the books are present and I have 4 sets of keys for the car. Please look closely at all the photos and email with any questions and do not assume anything. I will be happy to answer any questions and provide any additional photos upon request. I can assist with shipping. Good luck as someone will get a great automobile. The car is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to cancel the listing at any time. |

C7 Corvette won't spawn new Cadillac XLR [w/video]
Fri, 23 Aug 2013Between the new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray and the even newer Cadillac Elmiraj Concept shown off at Pebble Beach, we were already expecting some sort of chatter of a Cadillac XLR redux. During an in-depth C7 Corvette discussion with Tadge Juechter, the car's chief engineer, Fox News asked if a Corvette-based, Bowling Green-built Cadillac will be built off the C7. Non-spoiler alert: the answer is no.
Juechter says that General Motors has "no intent" on transforming this car into a Cadillac product since the C7 has been optimized for the Corvette buyer, a consumer that's generally a different sort of person than a Cadillac intender who might also be cross-shopping a Mercedes-Benz SL-Class or BMW 6 Series.
While we're not ready to write off a future XLR altogether, we assume that the Corvette Cadillac experiment is most likely never going to happen again. The interview with Juechter is posted below, but the XLR discussion comes in at the 9:00 mark.
Sunday Drive: An automotive flavor for every taste
Sun, Feb 25 2018Last week was flush with interesting new vehicle debuts, led by the new 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. This crossover is entering straight into the heart of one of the world's most competitive automotive segments, and it's doing so with a fresh sense of style and a brace of new technologies. Our readers are clearly intrigued – the Santa Fe was the biggest news story of the last week on these online pages. It's fitting that a crossover generated a lot more interest than a traditional wagon, though we don't really have to be happy about it. Still, the completely new, fully redesigned Volvo V60 is worth taking another look at. First of all, it's pretty, in a traditionally Scandinavian way. Second, it's quick, with a 0-60 time of as little as 4.8 seconds. And finally, it's practical, with all kinds of room for cargo without the dynamic penalties of an unnecessary lift kit. Moving on from new vehicle debuts, we took another long look at the Honda Ridgeline. It's definitely a non-conformist pickup truck, based not on a body-on-frame platform but on a more carlike unibody design. That means it can't tow as much as some other trucks, but it also means the Ridgeline drives better than any of its more truckish competitors. It's the Swiss army knife of pickup trucks. Rounding out our coverage from last week are three sets of spy photos, each showing the interior of a hotly anticipated new model. One is a truck, one is a crossover, and the last is a sportscar. All of them are worth another look. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the most important news in the automotive world. 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe unveiled 2019 Volvo V60 | Sleek, swift new twist on the Swedish wagon 2018 Honda Ridgeline | Pocketknife pickup is up for anything 2019 GMC Sierra interior looks just like the Silverado's 2019 Cadillac XT4 interior has actual buttons, no more touch-sensitive panel 2020 Porsche 911 992 spy shots show interior and manual transmission Cadillac GMC Honda Hyundai Porsche Volvo Truck Crossover Wagon Luxury Performance Sedan hyundai santa fe
Cadillac dealers get $5,000 incentive for ELR test drives
Tue, 13 May 2014The 530 Cadillac dealers - out of 940 total dealers - that signed on to sell the brand's ELR for $75,000 or lease it for $699 per month have managed to move 247 of them in the last five months. That's a little less than two cars for each dealer more than two dealers for each car if you need help with the math. With inventories of the luxury plug-in hybrid building up - Automotive News reports a 725-day supply - General Motors has created the Demonstrator Allowance Program to billow the sails on that slow moving ship, giving dealers $5,000 to promote ELR test drives.
A dealer with one ELR in its test fleet that racks up 750 test driven miles between May 1 and June 2 earns the fifty Benjamins, a dealer with two ELRs in the test fleet will get one hundred Benjamins. That will be added to summer incentives for dealers that pay $2,000 for units sold in July and $1,000 for units sold in August, while on the customer side, Cadillac has put "customer discount certificates" worth $3,000 on the hood for buyers and lessees.
Cadillac suggests this is about raising awareness of the ELR, but the question is how much dealers will be able to do for a car that observers - and buyers, apparently - still consider highly overpriced.
