You are bidding on a 2004 Cadillac XLR Star Black Edition. This is #35 of 200 made. CEO owned and driven 75 miles daily to and from the office as a trophy car. Clear title in hand, although the carfax may say there is a lien it is satisfied for this sale.
This car was originally developed as the EVOQ while under development by General Motors and became the first generation XLR. Manufactured on the Corvette assembly line, based on a Corvette Frame, with 50th Anniversary Corvette Magnetic Suspension, 5 speed manual shift Corvette Automatic Transmission and a more powerful than normal Northstar VVT 32 Valve Engine, this is the pinnacle American car in my opinion. This car rivals the technology available in most new cars today, and uses the same technology and supplier as the Mercedes SL500 & SL600 to achieve the hard top with such light weight and reliability. If you are a shy person, do not purchase this car, because people ask about it every day you drive it. The A/C is ice cold, heated and cooled seats make it much more comfortable with the top down. This car has extensive dealer service records, nearly every component that was known to cause problems in this series of cars has been replaced by GM under warrantee. Vehicle has been more than regularly serviced always using synthetic oils and top quality parts. In early 2013 a new pair of driver & passenger seats and center console shifter were installed so the interior looks very fresh. (At a cost of nearly $8000) Also later in 2013, at 110,000 miles the transmission and torque converter was overhauled. Then at 122,000 miles, the entire engine was reworked, including the new and improved valve guides added to the rebuilt, ported and polished head as well as new electronic variable valve timing controllers, at a cost of over $5000. As you can see from the photos, this is car number 3 in my stable of 13. I love and care for this car just as I do my Bentley #1, Jaguar #4, Lotus #5, Shelby #6, Ferrari #2 and other toys. Mileage is at 140,000 but I will keep driving it a few days a week until it sells, because I do love this car! Factory standard features include: Keyless Entry with two fobs included in the sale! Adaptive cruise control. Adaptive rain sensors. Heads up display with radio, MPH, trailing distance when adaptive cruise is on and many other heads up features. Steering wheel controls for Stereo, Cruise Control Gap & Voice Command. Verbal command unit in steering wheel which includes navigation controls. 6 Disc CD Changer in dash with single disc DVD / CD / NAV player. In dash navigation, including DVD viewing override, so you can watch movies while driving the car (great for passengers to enjoy, not so good for the driver to do). Dual Zone Climate Control with Cooled and Heated seats for driver and passenger. 42 position electronic adjustable seats for driver and passenger. TPMS sensors. Onstar safety system. Factory upgraded features include: Bulgari Speedometer and Tachometer Gauges! REAL WOOD VENEER INTERIOR TRIM, NOT THE PLASTIC USED IN LATER MODELS! The tail lights and front grille are blacked out, with gun metal colored badges not available through Cadillac any longer. She is riding on a fresh set of rear tires, and the set of rims are XLR-V factory that have no wear as they are new. All functions perform as they should. Non Factory Upgraded Features include: All LED bright white lighting, including interior, trunk, license plate and doors. D3 Racing Catalytic Converters installed D3 Racing ECU Installed (Google "D3 Cadillac" to see what I am talking about here.) These D3 upgrades make the car a bit more muscular and responsive, but it is less "tame" at idle and sounds quite a bit more throaty than a standard XLR. The bad news: Under the hood, one of the hood mounts is missing so the hood will not stay up on it's own. The car has several nicks and dings that you would expect given age & mileage. There is a scratch on the tourneau cover that is about 1 inch in a triangular pattern. Next to the driver seat there is a crack in the lateral entry panel trim cover. This is a cheap plastic part from GM that has broken several times over the years so I am tired of replacing it. If you are a big guy or gal, you will break this piece entering and leaving the car, if you are thin, you can replace it and it will stay fixed... Paint is a 9 at 20 feet, a 8 at 10 feet and a 7 close up. Photos of all major blemishes and scratches have been provided herein. Thank you for viewing this auction and good luck with your bidding!

Cadillac to ditch China-only LWB models for global 'right size'
Sat, Mar 26 2016We often think of Buick being General Motors' poster child in China, but would it surprise you to hear that Cadillac is just doing a bang-up job in the People's Republic? It's true, the Standard of the World is on fire, and it's doing so with a surprising group of buyers that are going to push through globe-spanning changes for the brand. Cadillac's average buyer age in the People's Republic of China is just 34. Yes, younger buyers dominate the Chinese market, but according to Reuters, Cadillac's young buyers want to drive and they don't want the typical businessman's German-badged sedan. Cadillac understands this, and is setting about to exploit it with a shift in its Chinese strategy. According to President Johan de Nysschen, the company will begin moving away from the China-only, long-wheelbase models, like the ATS-L. Instead, it will push for a global "right size" design, along with some stylistic changes. "You will see a softening of some of the hard edges, and more three-dimension styling on the side of the car," de Nysschen told Reuters, while noting that the cars will still be "instantly recognizable as Cadillac." Even without these changes, though, Cadillac has bucked the trend in China. At 17 percent, the company's sales exceeded the PRC's overall market growth of 7.3 percent by a significant margin. In fact, Cadillac's 2015 gains outpaced the overall market growth in China over the past three years, as the brand jumped to nearly 80,000 units. And the company is hoping to push that even higher, Reuters reports, with President Johan de Nysschen targeting a 25-percent increase in 2016. Related Video:
Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
Cadillac XTS to become Opel flagship sedan?
Tue, 24 Jul 2012According to Auto-News.de, Opel is considering using Cadillac's all-new big sedan, the XTS, as the base for its new flagship car, which would likely carry the name Omega.
WorldCarFans.com speculates that Opel could use GM's 3.6-liter direct-injection V6 that generates 304 horsepower or, possibly, a 2.8-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that creates 321 horsepower to power the vehicle. The European automaker could even use a 195-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine in this application - fine, since many of Europe's largest sedans are powered by smaller, more efficient engines.
Regardless of power, the Omega could arrive at dealerships by the end of 2013.
