Billerica, Massachusetts, United States

Step back into 1987 and go down to the local Chevy dealership and pick out this Yellow Beige Caprice Classic Brougham. That is what it feels like you are doing when you see this car. This GM classic is an absolute TIME CAPSULE! It is a 2 owner North Carolina car its entire life. Garaged, preserved, and pampered! Let me tell you the story about this beautiful Caprice. I am a diehard Cadillac fanatic, with a passion for the full sized Fleetwood Broughams and Eldorado's. Owning a few classics, I can appreciate this low mileage Caprice. My relationship with this car began about a month ago. I was traveling from Massachusetts delivering a vehicle my sister (who lives in NC) purchased from me. (I am a car dealer by day) I planned to drive down, and rent a cheap car and drive home. Planned being the key word. Before the trip started I found out this Caprice was just traded in at Bob Murray Chevy in Raleigh NC for a new Chevy, and was going to wholesale auction with all the other dealer trades. While I was down in NC I attended this dealer only auction, to check this dream machine out. It was like a rose in a garden of weeds, waiting to be plucked, taken home and cared for just as the first two owners have done. Since you are reading this, you know I couldn't resist. I purchased it, and drove it home to Massachusetts almost 800 miles! All trouble free driving, smooth, strong and comfortable! She ran like a top!! And got almost 24MPG!! Well since I have a 2 car garage, and have to rent space for my other cars, as soon as my soon to be wife saw this one she said "It or me!" So here we are. I need to find this sweetheart a new home. (the car, not my fiance) This Caprice would make a car guy like me a great Sunday cruiser, collectors car, or investment. The car starts, runs, drives like new. It looks amazing in its rare color combination, and is LOADED with options! They include AG2-SIX WAY POWER PASSENGER SEAT AG9-SIX WAY POWER DRIVERS SEAT AM6-SADDLE CLOTH 55/45 SPLIT AU3-POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM A01-TINTED GLASS A31-POWER WINDOWS A90-POWER TRUNK OPENER B34-FRONT FLOOR MATS B35-REAR FLOOR MATS B48-DELUXE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT TRIM B84-BODY SIDE MOUDLINGS B93-DOOR EDGE GUARDS CD4-INTERMITTENT WINDSHIELD WASHER SYSTEM C49-ELECTRIC REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER C60-AIR CONDITIONING D64-ILLUMINTATED RH VISOR MIRROR D68-TWIN REMOTE SPORT MIRRORS F41-SPORT SUSPENSION K34-ELEC.

It was owned by its first owner up until 2005 with 28k accumulated miles in High Point NC. It was then owned by the last owner, from 05 until traded at Bobby Murray Chevy this Feburary with 46k miles. I purchased this car under my dealership, and the new owner will be the 3rd owner. I have a clean and clear North Carolina title. The car comes with 2 original GM sets of keys, factory floor mats (great shape), owners manual, wire wheel lock key, and the orignal window sticker. It is completely rust free! The pictures will tell the story. No rust under door edges, trunk edges or on the chassis. The vinyl top is crisp and soft, and still retains its true color, showing it has been garaged. The chrome and bright work is just that, BRIGHT. The seats and carpets still have that thick pile to them. I do not believe they have ever been shampooed. There are some minor defects I will list. Power antenna stoped working when I shut it off after my 800 mile trip. It worked fine before. It is in the up position. some light stone chips on the mirrors (pictured), small crack in dash pad on the drivers side top corner point (under 1 inch, see photos), silver trim in the horn pad has a small section missing (see photos), some paint wearing off the dash under the radio and on the shifter column band (see photos), some small pits in the top face of the rear bumper. Not rust, just little dots in the chrome. Tires are a matched set of Michelin's with 80% tread, they are older tires and have some dry cracking in the tread. This did not concern me driving 800 miles home. I replaced the 10 year old battery with a brand new one. Radiator hoses look newer. This was a non smokers car. The defects I listed are me being over critical. This is a used car, a 1987 model year. Check out the photos, I took close to 140 pictures, including the undercarriage. Any questions feel free to email me, or you can call me. Anthony, at 978-930-1004. Please keep in mind I am in the EASTERN time zone. I will not like you much if you call me at 1 am, please keep calls from 8am-10pm EST. The car will be selling to the highest bidder, no reserve. I do not have a set price in mind. A $500 deposit via paypal within 48 hours, remaining Payment to be cash in person, or wire transfer. Car will not leave until payment is clear. I will export this car, and help in any transport to do so (Paid for by you). I will also help arrange shipping within the USA. If you want to fly in, and take another road trip in this car, I will pick you up at Boston Logan Int air port and get you on the road. Massachusetts does NOT issue temp plates, 20 day plates, or any other plate to put on the car to drive it home to wherever you may live. You must bring some sort of plate with you if you plan on driving home. The mileage may increase slightly as we welcome test drives. Dont make the same mistake I did, make sure the wife will allow you to have this car, make sure the bank you keep your money in has the funds to pay for it too! No reserve, last bidder wins! The car is located in Billerica MA, and has only been here for a few weeks. The car has not been driven to preserve its salt free history.  photo 87caprice2001_zps5c55451f.jpg  photo 87caprice2002_zpsa1b30985.jpg  photo 87caprice2003_zps72f30a8d.jpg  photo

2016 Chevy Volt to make auto show debut this season

Wed, Jul 30 2014

Ever since we saw that spy shots of the 2016 Chevy Volt, we've been hungering for more information on the next-gen version of GM's green halo car. It appears we might not have long to wait, at least for an official tease. An inside source that wishes to remain anonymous told AutoblogGreen that GM will make two announcements regarding the second-gen Volt at the CAR Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI next week. The first, and most intriguing, is that that we will get our first glimpse of the new Volt at some point during the upcoming auto show season. That means either Los Angeles later this year or else Detroit, Chicago or New York in early 2015. The second bit of news is that GM will be moving production of the electric motors from Mexico to Michigan. Details and official confirmation are, of course, missing and Chevrolet declined comment to AutoblogGreen. We should know more next week.

GM executive chief EV engineer says reducing cost of plug-in vehicles is 'huge priority'

Mon, Mar 17 2014

As we know, another major automaker investing heavily in electrified vehicles is General Motors, and it's doing things much differently than rivals BMW, Ford or Nissan. The Chevrolet Volt extended-range EV is a modest seller at its $35,000 sticker price but a huge hit with owners. The Chevy Spark BEV, still in limited availability, puts smiley faces on its owners and drivers. The just-introduced Cadillac ELR, a sharp-looking, fun-driving $76,000 luxocoupe take on the Volt's EREV mechanicals, has admittedly low sales expectations. With this interesting trio in showrooms and much more in the works, the third vehicle electrification leader I collared for an interview at Detroit's North American International Auto Show (see #1 and #2) was Pam Fletcher, GM's executive chief engineer, Electrified Vehicles. ABG: Why do your EREVs need four-cylinder power to extend their range when BMW's i3 makes do with an optional 650 cc two-banger? "We designed [the Volt and the ELR] to go anywhere, any time" - Pam Fletcher PF: I get that question all the time: why not something smaller? You don't really need that much. You use the electric to its ability, then you just need to limp. But we designed those cars to go anywhere, any time, and we don't want their performance to be compromised. If you're driving through the mountains, we don't want you to be crawling up grades, or to be limited on any terrain. So it's optimized to be able to travel literally the biggest grades and mountain roads around the globe at posted speeds. Because what if you can't? Another good reason: when the engine is on, you have to run it wide open throttle, max speed, most of the time. And while we can do a lot with acoustics, and the ELR has active noise cancelation, a small-displacement, low cylinder-count engine at high speed, high load all the time isn't something you want to live with. That's how we came up with the balance we did among the key factors of performance, NVH [noise, vibration and harshness] and range. ABG: Where you go from here? Is the range-extender engine due for an update? PF: We know and love the current Volt, and there is still a lot of acclaim about it, so we think it's a good recipe. But we are heavily in the midst of engineering the next-generation car, which I think everyone will love and be excited about.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race

Thu, Sep 8 2016

The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.
