The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"As is"

Ok, here's the deal. Decided to buy a different car and sell this one. It obviously took offense to my disloyalty, and decided it needed new brake lines. So we fixed them a few weeks ago. Oil and filter was changed around the same time. We had our mechanic check the exhaust system, because it has been sounding a little beefy, like a race car. It needs new mufflers. Since I'm not keeping it, I figure someone else can deal with it.

Then, a couple weeks ago, we were driving with the air on high, it was hot, and we just got done pulling a hill. The Low Oil Pressure light came on, dinging and indicating to shut off the engine. We shut it off and sat for a few minutes. Since it wasn't overheating, we decided to try to drive home. We made it with no problem (14 mi.). The engine seemed hot, but temp wasn't overheating. I looked up on line what it might be. It said if the engine isn't ticking or making any noises (which it isn't), it is probably the oil pressure sensor, and to start there. If it isn't that, it could be pricey. I'm not going to the bother of taking it anywhere to find out. This car would be great for someone who is a mechanic, knows a mechanic, or has access to a reasonable mechanic. Or you'd probably be able to make quite a bit parting the car out.

I'm being as transparent as possible as to the condition of this vehicle. I haven't moved it out of the yard since we brought it home, so don't know if the low pressure light will come back on. It doesn't come on when running the engine while sitting in the yard. It has just shy of 170,000 mi., so anything's possible. The check engine light has been on since I bought it 4 or 5 years ago. We just get it reset when it's inspected. It's still has current inspection. The body and interior are in decent condition. Has a few flaws, but not bad for a car this age. Body has a couple minor spots with surface rust that will need addressed before they get out of hand. Car is worth $1000 at the least. You buy as is.

If you're interested and want more photos, let me know, and I'll get some out to you. Please ask all questions before bidding. I would suggest towing the car to be on the safe side.

Cadillac CTS-V gets Stealth Blue and Silver Frost limited edition models

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

A little more than a year and a half ago, former weekend editor Alex Nunez and I were talking about how sweet it would be for Cadillac to offer a CTS-V in the Corvette's Supersonic Blue paint, and as if General Motors eavesdropped on our conversation, this showed up. And while the Stealth Blue car you see here isn't an exact duplicate of the hot-looking sedan GM showed off in prototype form, it's really close. And really sweet.
New for 2013, the Cadillac CTS range gets two new colorful editions, starting with the Stealth Blue package available on the CTS-V (in sedan, coupe and wagon bodystyles) as well as the naturally aspirated CTS coupe. In addition to the unique paint, blacked-out grille and dark satin wheels, Stealth Blue cars can also be done up with an optional Twilight Blue leather interior. (And you thought blue-on-blue color schemes died in the '90s.)
Cadillac is also offering a new Silver Frost package, but it's a bit more exclusive. Only 100 examples will be built, all in CTS-V Coupe form. The Silver Frost paint is a low-gloss matte finish, in that while it technically has a clearcoat covering, it's reduced in a way that the surface still appears flatter than standard paint. Even so, Cadillac states that the car should be hand-washed only.

Cadillac abandons plans for six-digit flagship sedan

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

So much for that party. Cadillac has announced that it is walking away from plans to build a high-dollar, rear-wheel-drive ultraluxury sedan. The low-volume model would have been based on the lusty Ciel Concept, and the production iteration would have carried a price tag well over $100,000. Executives with the automaker reportedly claim the model wouldn't have bolstered the brand enough to be worth the investment.
Even so, Automotive News reports Cadillac is still on track to build a range-topping four-door to go head-to-head with the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. That model will likely be constructed on the company's upcoming Omega rear-wheel-drive platform, but we won't see it bow until at least 2016. Right now, the front-wheel-drive XTS sits at the top of the Cadillac lineup, and while that machine and it's twin-turbocharged V6 variant makes a compelling argument against certain luxury entries, it falls short serving as a legitimate competitor for the likes of the 7 Series and S-Class for enthusiast drivers.
