The seats ARE ALL THEIR rear """jump seats""" are in great shape they all the only part of the interior that is still preserved from being folded up inside the back of the front seat. Pass rear tire loses air over night. it has all 4 original rims and hub caps. limo has history from sun valley resort in Idaho Here is the story of how I bought it. I was living in Hailey Idaho, in 1999 a friend and I were 4x4ing and sticking out of the entrance of the triumph silver mines just south of sun valley was this Cadillac. I was selling cars at a local dealership and he called me a few weeks after and ask me to see if I would find out if it was for sale, 5 months later it was, $5000 in the local paper. I called, went, spoke, and towed it away. His wife said No way. thus I was pinched for the cost, I towed it to Southern Cal replaced the wheal bearing, brakes, tune up and took it for a test drive. Moved to Northern cal, pulled the engine and tranny out and swapped it with what is in now. I do not have the engine and tranny I pulled due the fact I gave it away 9 years ago, some guy put it in his qtr mile race truck. The engine runs, I have done 3 oil changes and every time its chocolate milk, all other parts that are missing in pics are in trunk. A few missing parts are missing but obtainable. When I bought it, I went to the resort and library were there are over 2 dozen photos of 2 limos sitting in front of resort with famous actors politicians and Ernest Hemingway himself sitting on hood/bumper with Cary Grant. call the resort to confirm. The other limo is in Utah, being used as a taxi was what I was told. I bought a pass side front door and other misc stainless parts, the only parts that are missing are the rear qtr chrome fins that go on the bullet shaped parts on the rear qtrs, the pass rear door and pass rear qtr panel need some metal shaping and or replacing, you can get a pass rear door for $800 from cadillac parts on line, they say they have it. I have had this for 15 years with a dream of restoring one day as a road trip cruiser. Its priced to sell. I replaced front windshield with used glass but still needs rubber weathering striping I called metro and they sent me a sample, needs front door vent glass and one rear door glass replaced, I made polycarbonate ones to seal it up due to rain and rats. yes their might be a few thinking its a Cadillac Resort! |

Twin-turbo Cadillac CTS coming
2016 Cadillac CTS-V to hit dealers this summer, start at $83,995*
Wed, Apr 29 2015Cadillac has announced pricing for the 640-horsepower CTS-V, and not only will the new super-sedan outgun its heartiest German rivals, it'll undercut them on price, too. Kicking off at $83,995 (not including a $995 destination charge), the CTS-V is nearly $10,000 less than the 560-hp BMW M5, almost $18,000 less than the 577-hp Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic, and is nearly $25,000 less than the 560-hp Audi RS7. So in case you were wondering, yes, the CTS-V will continue to be one of the auto industry's very best high-performance bargains in its third generation. "V-Series represents the pinnacle of Cadillac, a brand that now makes drivers' cars at the highest level," Cadillac's head honcho Johan de Nysschen said in a statement. "The new CTS-V is essentially two cars in one: a luxury sedan with sophisticated road manners and a track-capable sports car with awe-inspiring performance. This type of car is exclusive, the domain of the few who can access this level of incredible capability. V-Series matches or overtakes the finest cars in this elite class, while being more accessible." As for when you can get your hands on bargain-priced beast, dealers are now accepting orders, with deliveries slated to begin late this summer. Scroll on down for the official release from Cadillac. Next-Generation 640-hp Cadillac CTS-V Launches This Summer U.S. DEALERS BEGIN ACCEPTING ORDERS NOW FOR CADILLAC'S UPCOMING PERFORMANCE ICON DETROIT – Cadillac announced today that U.S. dealers will begin accepting orders for the next-generation 2016 CTS-V, the all-new high-performance sedan that launches in late summer. The 640-hp CTS-V is the second of two all-new V-Series models to come to market in 2015, following the smaller ATS-V coupe and sedan, which launches in late spring. Cadillac's new 2016 V-Series models represent a significant expansion of the brand's elite, high-performance line. Not only are the new V-Series cars elevated in terms of performance, they now reach a broader spectrum of drivers by presenting two distinct personalities, size categories and price points. With a top speed of 200 mph and 0-60 performance in 3.7 seconds, the CTS-V is the most powerful car in Cadillac's 112-year history. The 2016 CTS-V is priced from $83,995. Customers can place orders now with dealers and view additional product information at Cadillac.com. The CTS-V elevates into the elite group of the world's highest-performing sedans.
2014 Cadillac ELR wears a suave suit with Volt underpants
Tue, 15 Jan 2013The Cadillac design and engineering teams were smiling like a bunch of proud papas here in Detroit this morning, as the Wreath and Crest crew pulled the curtain back on their 2014 ELR. The house was packed for the ELR's coming out party, and reaction was enthusiastic amongst the murmuring media, as far as we could gather, while the flashes were firing.
In fact, we think that the sleek styling and aggressive proportions of the Voltec-powered ELR looked even better in the metal than they did in the first official images we saw earlier. Further, the leather-lined interior seems custom made for serious driving, even if the ELR is slightly less than rocket-ship quick.
The new Cadillac makes good use of the basic running gear from the Chevrolet Volt, including the 1.4-liter range-extending gas engine, a 15.6-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, and an electric drive motor that offers 295 pound-feet of torque, and a total system output of 207 horsepower. All-electric range is down by just one mile versus its Chevrolet forebearer, for a total of 35, and Cadillac speculates that the total range with the gasoline generator figured in will top 300 miles.
