This Limousine was originally purchased by Industrial Indemnity Insurance Co. of San Francisco for the CEO. There were only 1,839 Limousines built by Cadillac at the factory in 1984 and this is one of them. This was the last year of the full length, rear wheel drive limousines built by Cadillac. In 1985, Limousines were outsourced to Limo companies that cut the cars in half and lengthened them, and they used front wheel drive cars that were smaller and less stately looking.

The Chauffeur was instructed to purchase a new Limo for the CEO and he got all the bells and whistles. From my research, only the Formal Limousine could get the six-way power seat, but this car has the six-way power seat.

It also has a reading light for the CEO that was added but it has stopped working recently. The car was repainted by the previous owner who was going to use it for livery services. The paint was faded when I bought the car and I buffed it out to get a shine. I replaced the right taillight housing as it was slightly dented from an accident. I replaced taillights and also the molding below the grille and front bumper. The vinyl top is in decent shape. There are bubbles beginning to develop below the sail panel at the belt line. I have kept the car garaged during my possession. I've replaced the plastic bumper to fender extensions at the front. The right side needs to be painted to match the paint on the car. Pictures show this.

I recently replaced the drive coupler on the front seat motor as the original disintegrated from age, so the power seat now works fine. The driver door window is a little noisy, it works but isn't as quiet as the rest. There is a foot wear spot on the driver side original floor mat. There are cigarette burns, one on the driver door and on the seat, pictures show these.

The car is leaking some oil, transmission fluid and differential oil. The cruise control works, but gets an attitude occasionally by surging. I've not used the cruise control much, so maybe it's from the lack of use. I put new tires on the car during ownership. They have low miles on them but are a few years old now. I have all the receipts for the work I've had done to the car as well as the 1984 Cadillac Shop Manuals that will come with it.

IT came with the V8/6/4 system but that has been disabled and runs on all eight cylinders all the time.

The car needs to go to someone who can maintain it and keep it up. It's a rare car in my view with only 1,839 built and the last of the Limos built at the Cadillac factory. If you have any questions let me know and I will answer them to the best of my ability.

The car easily passed emissions within the last month for it's registration.

Cadillac CT6 production ceases January 2020 as part of D-Ham layoffs

Fri, Dec 6 2019

General Motors filed paperwork under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act with Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity this week, detailing events to come at the automaker's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Starting February 28, 814 salaried and hourly workers at D-Ham, as its called, will be laid off. The 753 workers represented by the UAW will begin receiving offers in January to relocate to facilities in Michigan and Ohio, or buyout offers. As the 4-million-square-foot plant winds down through April 3 to a skeleton crew, the Cadillac CT6 ceases production in January 2020, and the last Chevrolet Impala comes off the line on February 28. The loss of the CT6 represents the end of Cadillac's latest brief, and highly regarded, adventure into flagship sedans. It might also mean the end of the 4.2-liter Blackwing twin-turbo V8 engine, at least for the moment. Both casualties are calamities. The death of the Impala closes the door on a nameplate in production for 52 years since 1957, having started off as a top-tier trim for the 1958 Bel Air known as the Bel Air Impala, once advertised with the line, "Lets you know you're the boss." As part of the new four-year labor agreement with the UAW, GM is keeping D-Ham open to build a new line of battery-electric vehicles, ultimately investing $3 billion and tripling employment to 2,225 workers when fully operational. The agreement described the coming EV as a "van" that would commence production in late 2021, but various reports say what's actually coming is a range of premium EVs in pickup and SUV bodystyles under the program codename BT1. The easy predictions put an electric GMC Sierra and Cadillac Escalade among the EV fold, but not until 2023, according to auto industry forecaster LMC Automotive. Before that, LMC claims an electric van will debut in late 2021, along with a battery-powered rebirth of the Hummer brand in pickup and SUV forms, also in late 2021.Â

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too

Thu, 22 Nov 2012

The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.

Cadillac Ciel concept features in Entourage trailer

Wed, Dec 24 2014

Some of us may miss HBO's Entourage more than others, but one way or another, it sure had some cool cars. The characters on the show were constantly trading between Astons, Maseratis and Ferraris – not to mention a smattering of Benzes and Escalades Â– but one of our favorite sets of wheels from the show's entire eight-year run was the 1965 Lincoln Continental featured in the opening credits. The vintage parade car undoubtedly provided the studio with a great way to showcase the camaraderie between the four members of the title crew, but also made us pine for a time when you could actually get your hands on a four-door convertible. Unfortunately they just don't make 'em like that anymore Â– not the car and not the TV show in which it featured Â– but fans of both will be pleased to watch this latest trailer for the upcoming Entourage movie. Not only does it include all the members of the original cast, but it also features Detroit's latest (and arguably most stylish) attempt at reviving the four-door cabriolet: the commandingly elegant and achingly desirable but sadly unobtainable Cadillac Ciel concept of 2011.
