I have for auction my 76 Eldorado Convertible. I have owned the car since 2002. It shows well but is a good driver not a show car. I have replaced the top and rear glass window. I have replaced the tires, carpet, duel exhaust including cats, repaired door panels and new paint.  The seats are the original leather with no rips but shows some wear but are still soft. The dash has 2 cracks but still looks nice the steering wheel woodgrain is missing. The car runs great with no sounds are smoke. Complete tune up was done last fall. Shifts well and drives smooth. The steering is tight. I installed rear air shocks that can be raised or lowered with an air valve under the rear bumper. The brakes have been replaced also.  The paint has some minor chips and flaws but shows very well and is shiny. All the fillers were replaced. The right front filler has a small hole on the inner side from the hood but isn't very noticeable with the hood shut. ( see pic). all the mouldings are there and look good. The front and rear bumpers the chrome is thin but still shine. The front grill piece on the hood has been rechromed and looks awesome.   The front drivers seat stopped working just clicks it is set in the rear position. The pass seat moves fine. I replaced the carb with an Edlbroke 4 barrel and have the original. I replaced the radio with an Custom Auto Sound radio with speakers under the front seats with an amp. It has an aux. connection with an ipod connection. The power top goes up and down but needs help going up about half way then continues to close tightly. Both top clamps work and keep the top sealed to the windshield.  The top is mint with no rips.  Has a soft boot. The clock was converted to quartz and works great. The original power antenna doesn't go up or down but can be put down manually. The antenna is straight never bent. The cruise doesn't work but is there.  All the emblems look new including the trunk and hood ornament. The battery was replaced last year. The front floor mat is an original and is mint. The rear floor mat is an original black rubber one piece. The trunk also has a black original rubber trunk mat. The a/c works and was gone through. a new compressor was installed. The electric trunk pull down works as does the trunk release in the glove box. I have the original 8 track tape that came with the car explaining its features. Owners manual is there too. Again this is a very nice driver that looks good but is not a show car. It is a very good original car that runs and drives nice. Please email with any questions I will answer asap. $500.00 deposit is due via paypal at auction close with remainder do within 7 days of end of auction. Cash or Bank check only. Car will be released when funds clear. I have a clear title in hand.  Buyer is responsible for shipping or pickup. Thank you.

GM lays off 450 at Lansing Grand River Assembly

Mon, Dec 8 2014

General Motors will lay off 450 employees at its Lansing Grand River factory, The Detroit News reports, which is 100 more than the company said it'd be letting go last month. Lansing Grand River Assembly currently builds the Cadillac ATS and CTS, both of which have suffered sluggish sales, with the smaller sedan down 20 percent through last month and the larger model down 2.3 percent, The Detroit News reports. "We are adjusting plant production capacity to better align with market demand. Beginning in January 2015, the plant will operate on a single shift," a GM statement read, before explaining that not all the laid off Grand River employees will be jobless. Of the employees that have been laid off to make room for the single work shift, around 200 will transfer to the Lansing Delta Township factory, home of the Lambda-platform crossovers, GM's statement confirmed. The News expects this one-shift arrangement to continue until at least late next year, when the Alpha-platform Chevy Camaro transitions from General Motors' Oshawa, Ontario factory to Lansing. Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen said at last month's LA Auto Show, "It may not necessarily be permanent, a time may come when we've gained momentum and we can reinstate it. But for now, the adjustment to production capacity is in alignment with our plans for 2015."

Cadillac XT5 confirmed for 2016 as next-gen SRX

Wed, Jun 10 2015

Cadillac's entire lineup of 2016 models gets a major infotainment upgrade this summer with improvements to CUE and integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There's one major exception for now, though. The SRX retains the old system until its all-new generation, called the XT5, debuts early in the 2016 calendar year. "When we transition into all new product lines, we will evolve the naming convention to suit the new classification we have announced. So SRX becomes XT5 next year," company spokesman David Caldwell said in an email to Autoblog. Earlier spy shots and rumors suggest the XT5 might be offered with a turbocharged four-cylinder and naturally aspirated six-cylinder engines, plus a nine-speed automatic transmission. For the rest of Cadillac's models, CarPlay arrives with the launch of the 2016 vehicles, and Android Auto joins later. Using either of them requires a connection via USB, and they add a new projection icon on the CUE screen. Once activated, both systems integrate with driver's phone and incorporate features like navigation, music, and contacts. They can also accept voice commands. Even for those that don't want to hook up a smartphone, CUE should work better thanks to a more powerful processor. Start-up times for the infotainment system are expected to be faster, and Cadillac claims that it's also more responsive for voice recognition, navigation searches, and media. The navigation interface is simplified, as well. The Escalade, CTS, and XTS can now be ordered with a 360-degree camera system to display on the screen. Cadillac Enhances Phone Integration for 2016 Models with Apple CarPlay, CUE Upgrades APPLE CARPLAY AVAILABLE AT LAUNCH; ANDROID AUTO COMING LATER IN MODEL YEAR 2015-06-09 NEW YORK – Cadillac's 2016 model year products will feature enhanced connectivity and control, including the addition of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, the predominant new systems for in-car phone integration. These additions are part of a broader enhancement of CUE, Cadillac's user experience, with new features and a faster, streamlined operation. Apple CarPlay will debut in 2016 Cadillac models featuring CUE's 8-in multi-touch screen except the SRX Crossover, a model that will move to an all-new generation in early 2016. Android Auto is expected to be phased into 2016 production at a later date. The 2016 model year will begin this summer.

Car subscription services: A slow, expensive start — but the potential is huge

Wed, Dec 26 2018

Americans are used to paying for subscriptions — to magazines and cable television, for instance — but experience shows they'll cancel when the price of admission gets too high, or there are more tempting alternatives. Cord cutters ditched nearly 1.5 million pay-TV subscriptions in 2017, according to a survey by Leichtman Research Group. Cable TV started out cheap with basic offerings, and then got expensive. The auto industry's subscription offerings are new, but they're starting out costly, and not price-competitive with traditional leasing. The upside is that they take the hassle out of car ownership for busy people by letting the service take care of maintenance, insurance, licensing and taxes. And they give consumers choice, often allowing relatively painless switches between different cars in the automakers' lineup. Subscription services also point the way toward an ownership-free auto experience, and offer an easy transition to a potential world where ride- and car-sharing will be dominant. Subscriptions are here to stay, but consumers may take a while to "get" them. Lincoln's subscription service for lightly used 2015 to 2017 models, offered through the Ford-owned Canvas beginning this year, got off to a slow start. Many early subscribers canceled. Last month, Cadillac announced it would " temporarily pause" its $1,800-per-month Book subscription service for "adjustments" as of December 1. According to the Wall Street Journal, "Snags with the back-end technology used to support the service made some customer-service functions tedious and time-consuming, adding costs for the company." The challenge for automakers is to come up with a strategy that offers consumers a compelling, affordable option to regular ownership, and one that can also make a profit. I think they'll find that sweet spot, but they're not there yet. Jack Nerad, former executive editorial director at Kelley Blue Book and author of " The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying or Leasing a Car," points out that "A lot of people expected that subscriptions would be very valuable for people who wanted inexpensive transportation, but the reality is quite the opposite. Subscriptions are offering more choices for the wealthy.
