You are bidding on a really nice shape 1991 Cadillac Deville with a leak from a crack in the engine block a real crying shame as the car is otherwise in very nice overall shape with very  low mileage(less than 70,000 original ). The car was recently purchased  from the original owner by myself in Florida  for my son  who lives in South Carolina. It was driven from Florida to South Carolina and then shortly the leak occurred.   The mechanics who diagnosed the problem in South Carolina said it happened more than likely because the car sat so much over the years and apparently  this can happen to these 4.9 engines because of that.The car runs and drives great other than the leak which is now getting worse now to the point it shouldn't be driven. Before taking it to my son I had a new headliner put in it (it was sagging due to Florida heat ) .replaced the trunk pull down motor ,replaced the fuel data module ,installed new speakers (4); my son is keeping the aftermarket stereo that is in the car  and the  original radio will go with the car  .the tires are really good  and it has no other leaks (fluid or exhaust ). Everything worked well on the car other than the power antenna ,the A/C had been serviced  and blows cold  the power windows and seats work as they should ,the cruise control worked great as well on the trip from Florida . The interior is in really nice shape with only the drivers seat needing the cover repaired (cracks/seams) and crack in drivers door panel. The car belong to a 90 yr old lady who had to quit driving .If you are mechanically inclined this would make a great car to fix , the engine we were told could possibly be repaired as the crack is only in a water jacket area and not getting into the engine internally to affect how the engine runs,but the engine would have to be removed and this is something my son is not able to do and the cost to do so in a shop is not really practical so he is buying another car instead. The car can be seen at my son's in Bluffton SC  He can be reached at 843 304 1053 or 843 540 2332 his name is Todd.

Cadillac considering more engines, Vsport model for Escalade

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Want to roll in the latest Cadillac Escalade? You can get it with a 6.2-liter V8... or a 6.2-liter V8. Cadillac only offers the one engine option. But that may soon change.
According to the latest from Automotive News, Cadillac is contemplating a couple of new powertrain options for its blingin' big ute. The report suggests a twin-turbo V6 and a V6 turbodiesel could be offered, and that Cadillac could create a Vsport version of the Escalade like it offers on the new CTS sedan.
The more diverse engine offerings would help attract buyers from the new Lincoln Navigator, its prime competitor, which switched from a 5.4-liter V8 this year to a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. The turbo V6 engines (both gasoline and diesel) would also help Cadillac market the Escalade overseas - particularly in Europe, where higher fuel prices preclude the prospect of driving a big V8 SUV for many buyers. Escalade sales have dropped from 35-40k units in the mid-2000s to around 12,000 the past couple of years.

Lansing builds its millionth Cadillac

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

Cadillacs are built at plants across North America. The Escalade is assembled in Texas, the SRX in Mexico and the XTS in Ontario. But the bulk of Cadillac's lineup - or the smaller members of the family, at least - are built in Michigan. And while the upcoming ELR will be built alongside the Chevy Volt at the Detroit/Hamtramck facility (which incidentally opened with the Cadillac Eldorado back in '86), the majority of those Cadillacs built in Michigan are handled by the Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant.
In fact, Lansing Grand River just celebrated its millionth Cadillac built. The landmark millionth vehicle is a new 2014 CTS sedan in Red Obsession Tintcoat. The facility opened in 2001 and has built Cadillacs almost exclusively since then, assembling the CTS and ATS model lines, though in a couple of years it will also handle production of the Chevy Camaro.

Cadillac Elmiraj Concept brings big coupe style to Pebble Beach [w/videos]

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Two years ago, Cadillac absolutely floored us with the debut of its gorgeous Ciel concept at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. And since that droptop four-door's debut, we've seen plenty of its design language worked into the latest Cadillac products. Now, we're seriously hoping that history will repeat itself with this stunning new Elmiraj coupe concept, which makes its first public appearance in Monterey this week.
Cadillac states that the Elmiraj concept simply showcases the next step forward for the brand's Art & Science design DNA, and doesn't necessarily preview an upcoming model. But if you told us the Elmiraj was a conceptual look at the next-generation CTS Coupe, or a smaller, two-door version of a new flagship, we'd believe you. At 207 inches long, 76 inches wide and 55 inches tall, its dimensions are only slightly larger than the current two-door CTS.
Regardless of what the Elmiraj does or does not become, it's certainly a fantastic modern interpretation of the classic GT formula with its short front overhang, long hood, rakish roofline and petite rear deck. The strong character lines running along the sides and exaggerated 22-inch wheels round out the beautiful coupe, and Cadillac's signature vertical LED lighting elements are found at the front and rear. Also take note: the badge on the grille is a crest without a wreath, basically confirming our earlier report.
