THERE IS ONE MINOR DENT IN THE LEFT FRONT FENDER ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE PALM OF YOUR HAND AND IT'S VERY SHALLOW - YOU CAN'T SEE IT UNLESS YOU ARE LOOKING VERY CLOSE.  THE ORIGINAL COLORS ACCORDING TO THE FACTORY BODY PLATE ARE CRYSTAL BLUE AND OCEANANA BLUE.  MOST OF THE CHROME LOOKS VERY GOOD, BUT NOT SHOW QUALITY BUT CAN BE POLISHED OR REPLATED ECONOMICALLY.  A FEW PIECES MIGHT NEED REPLATING.  THE STAINLESS CAN BE POLISHED TO LOOK PERFECT.  ALL PARTS APPEAR TO BE WITH THE CAR.  THERE ARE NO APPARENT OR KNOWN MISSING PARTS EXCEPT FOR THE AIR CLEANER.  MOST OF THE GLASS IS IN GOOD CONDITION EXCEPT FOR A FEW PIECES THAT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED.  IT IS ALL FLAT GLASS EASILY OBTAINED.

THE CAR RAN WHEN PARKED SEVERAL YEARS AGO. 

MY FRIENDS RELATIVE STARTED TO RESTORE THE CAR:

1).  REMOVING PARTS AND GENERAL PREPARING FOR REPAINT AND RESTORATION.

2).  HE PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY BEFORE FINISHING THE PROJECT.

3).  NOW RELUCTANTLY THE FAMILY HAS DECIDED TO PART WITH THE CAR.

4).  THEY WANT IT TO GO TO A NEW OWNER WHO WILL APPRECIATE AND PRESERVE IT.

THE FRAME AND UNDERSIDE APPEARS TO BE VERY CLEAN.  IN MY OPINION THE CAR DOESN'T NEED A FRAME OFF RESTORATION.  THE CAR HAS UNDERCOATING IN SOLID CONDITION.  THE CAR NEEDS RESTORATION BEFORE DRIVING.  I HAVE DESCRIBED THIS CAR AS BEST AS I CAN FOR MY FRIEND.  YOU CAN INSPECT THE CAR BEFORE BIDDING IF YOU PREFER.  SEND A MESSAGE THROUGH EBAY TO SETUP AN APPOINTMENT.  I WILL ANSWER ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY.  THANK YOU FOR READING THE AD!

First Cadillac ELR rolls off the line

Thu, 30 May 2013

Gearing up for the Belle Isle Grand Prix this weekend, General Motors invited some of the Chevrolet and Cadillac racecar drivers out to its Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. While there, the racers - including IndyCar Driver and Chevrolet Volt owner, Simona De Silvestro - witnessed the very first 2014 Cadillac ELR to roll off the assembly line.
These vehicles are not destined for customers, however, but instead pre-production units will be used by engineers for testing purposes. Actual production of ELR consumer models is expected to commence closer to the end of this year. As a refresher, this range-extended electric Cadillac shares much of its powertrain with the Volt but will have a sportier coupe design inspired by the Converj Concept. De Silvestro manged to snap a few images of here own, which you can see in the gallery below.

2014 Cadillac CTS debuts new design, twin-turbo power, Vsport model [w/video]

Tue, 26 Mar 2013


If ever there were a Cadillac to truly rival the world's best, this could be it.
With every new model, Cadillac indeed gets closer and closer to actually performing at the top of its class, rivaling those crafty Germans at their own sport/luxury sedan game. The best example yet of Cadillac's efforts to challenge the world came last year, when we met the 2013 ATS - a vehicle that we praised for its on-road dynamics and interior refinement, and later went on to be named North American Car of the Year.

Cadillac's de Nysschen takes aim at Porsche 911, Cayenne

Mon, Nov 24 2014

Johan de Nysschen has big plans for Cadillac. He's moved the brand from Detroit to New York, revamped its model nomenclature, and planning a raft of new models for the near future – including a $250,000 luxury sedan to take on the likes of Rolls-Royce and Bentley. But the veteran executive of luxury automakers has some more performance-oriented machinery in mind, too. Speaking with Car and Driver at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week, de Nysschen suggested Cadillac could be ready to launch a flagship sports car sometime in the next decade. The halo model would take aim at the Porsche 911 and do for Cadillac what Audi did with the R8, Mercedes is doing with the AMG GT and Acura once did (and is aiming to do again) with the NSX. Just what form it would take remains a big unknown, but de Nysschen indicated that the brand would need to be built up further before the sports car would be launched, lest it emerge too detached from Cadillac's image. The last time Cadillac delved into that territory was with the Corvette-based XLR, of which it sold only 15,000 or so examples – far below initial targets. The 911 rival isn't the only performance model de Nysschen has in mind, however. He plans to further expand the V series into a more substantial sub-brand to include a crossover to take on the likes of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, BMW X5 M and all those many AMG-tuned Mercedes utilities. The idea of an entry-level model to slot in below the ATS was mooted as well. A range of diesel engines are slated to help Cadillac break into overseas markets in similar fashion to how Maserati has expanded its market reach with oil-burning versions of the Ghibli and Quattroporte. And we wouldn't be surprised to see Cadillac get in on a new flagship SUV being launched by Opel in Europe, either.
