1964 Cadillac  series 62 convertible,

During my 6 years of ownership, a lot has been replaced and repaired, all with receipts.  Now everything works (windows, top, 6 way seats, wipers, interior and exterior lights, turn signals, signal seeking radio, antenna) except for the factory A/C and the W/Squirters, neither of which is hooked up.  There is NO heater.

Mechanically:  This is my car’s strongest point. In terms of the 4 S’s, it starts , shifts , steers and stops dependably . This car is literally my driver so safety and reliability were non-negotiable.  That’s where my $ went, that’s why I have confidence in my Cadillac.   Every summer, I take several road trips of almost  200 miles each, but my car never overheats , doesn’t burn oil  and is rock steady every time I hit 100 mph  (I cruise at 75/80 mph)

Cosmetically:  Although my car gets thumbs up and even stops traffic (everyone from kids to grandmas loves this Cadillac), it’s a driver with minor dings, faded spots, and scratches   The chrome needs attention and there is very slight bubbling in the driver’s lower door, but no one notices at 10/10.  Wet sanding had been “overlooked” following its last paint job. Thus the good news here is the potential to significantly improve the finish w/o the cost of a new paint job.   And, yes, it does pass the magnet test.

The owner’s manual and the shop manual come with it, as does my file, of course. 

What’s great here is this Cadillac is totally your call: a turn-key summer cruiser or an apt candidate for restoration.

Cadillac Escalade driven by Tony Soprano for sale

Fri, Nov 6 2015

If you're a fan of The Sopranos imagining a trip to the Bada Bing, then check out this white 2003 Cadillac Escalade ESV for sale by RR Auction. James Gandolfini drove this luxury SUV in the role of Tony Soprano for the last three seasons of the mafia-themed series. Gandolfini also signed the interior to give you something to show off to your buddies. If you've ever watched the show, you've almost certainly seen this white SUV before. According to the auction listing, the series featured two Escalades, and this one was used for exterior shots. The Caddy even starred in an action scene in season 5 when Tony chased after Phil Leotardo. Gandolfini's signature appears inside twice: once with "Thanks for the truck, James Gandolfini" and again with just his name. The auction also includes a letter of authenticity that's signed by the actor, and a second document asserts the SUV's use in the series. Apparently, Gandolfini had a habit of signing messages in his vehicles from the show – at one point he wrote a threatening "Be nice to my car" message in a red Chevrolet Suburban from earlier episodes. The auction for Tony's Escalade runs from November 12-19, which still leaves plenty of time for a meeting of the families to decide to buy it. Bidding starts at $5,000, and according to The Drive, the consignor estimates a final price between $30,000 and $50,000. This sale should at least come to a more definitive end than The Sopranos did.

Consumer Reports loves the 2014 Cadillac CTS

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Our first drive of the 2014 Cadillac CTS was just published today... we really liked the Vsport version. And Consumer Reports has some even stronger words of praise for the all-new luxury sedan. We already knew that Cadillac had stepped up its game with the third-gen CTS, but CR bluntly states that the sedan drives better than its German luxury counterparts.
While CR shows plenty of love for the new CTS, the outlet still takes issue with some of the in-car technology including the CUE infotainment system - no surprise there. The testers' offer all manner of positive comments where the impressive handling capabilities of the sedan are concerned, with lots of drifting around CR's private test facility in evidence to bear them out. Scroll down to watch the CTS get put through its paces.
