Men want to talk to you, women take your picture, kids are in awe. Seriously! This car is the BOMB! First, it's beautiful. The color is mesmerizing. Far superior to any other standard GM color I've seen on this vehicle. Second, it purrs like a kitten. About $40k has has gone into this restoration. It is reliable as hell. I've never had a problem with the engine or drive train. Engine and tranny was completely rebuilt at 87,791 miles. Currently there is 105, 212 on the ODO. I always keep my eye on what's selling in this category and this car, this quality, is right at the top. I drove it to NY and back last summer. Didn't skip a beat! Nothing like gliding down the highway in this. Talk about attention! Make me an offer!"

You'll see alot of 60's vintage Cadys out there and and believe me, they are NOT all equal - even though they may be in the same zone pricing wise. This car is the top of the heap in the driver class of classic cars. $40,000 has gone into this restoration. It runs great and is very solid. There are no uneven motor sounds or anything coming from the engine that would lead you to have pause. It's simply a great car. Here is a list of the major improvements, for which I have all the receipts. 

Engine rebuilt
Transmission rebuilt
Engine rewired
Carburator rebuilt
Premium radial tires
New Top, rear window
New motor, lines and hydrolic pistons for top
New nylon interior. In 1964, there were 143 different interior combinations
Genuine GM After market AC that blows nice and cold. Compressor designed specifically for this add on. 
New brakes
New floors
New paint. Bumpers, chrome, doorhandles, everything was removed, body sanded down to bare metal, any surface rust was removed, then primed and painted with original GM color specs.
New front and back speakers
The list goes on. 
The car, as nice as it is, is not perfect, of course, otherwise I'd be asking $80,000 instead of $19,500. There is a very slow leak in the power steering gearbox, around one of the seals. I add about 1 ounce of fluid about once a month. At some point you may want to replace this, but if you don't, just keep some power steering fluid in the trunk, hell, the old gal's 50, and wants to make you happy for under 20 grand! You should be in such good shape at that age!  Also, the radio recently stopped working and there are the "to be expected" blemishes here and there.

2014 Cadillac ELR is making green sexy in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013


In terms of styling, inside and out, the ELR hits the ball out of the park.
Cadillac has pulled the wraps off of its newest family member, the long-rumored, Voltec-powered, eye-catching extended range hybrid coupe called the ELR. The car makes use of the same basic architecture as the Chevrolet Volt, but has been thoroughly layered on with design, technology and performance tuning - with the goal of being a properly situated product for the Cadillac brand.

Cadillac executive appointments have global flair

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

Cadillac has rearranged its executive suite in order to take full advantage of its sales momentum. Don Butler is moving from his role as US VP of marketing to a newly created position with the title VP of global Cadillac strategic development. It will be his job to "drive the next phase of Cadillac growth internationally," planning strategy and developing new markets.
He will be replaced by Steve Majoros, an exec poached from Chevrolet's ad agency of record, Campbell Ewald. Majoros, who has the Chevrolet campaigns "Like a Rock" and "American Revolution" on his resume, will oversee Cadillac's US and international marketing.
Another component in the brand's renewed global focus includes conducting an ad agency review. Announced last month, Fallon Worldwide remains Cadillac's agency of record, but others, said to include Campbell Ewald, will be bidding to make the creative that helps Cadillac expand sales percentages by triple digits here and in China.

2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Bridging The Gap With Power And Poise
As you read these words, West Coast Editor Michael Harley is preparing to drive the brand-new 2014 Cadillac CTS along the gorgeous, sun-drenched roads of Southern California. And while I'll wait for Harley's full report before I put words in his mouth, I'm willing to bet he enjoys the hell out of Cadillac's new CTS. In fact, I'm sure of it.
I say this with confidence because, about a month ago, I spent the better part of a day flogging the new CTS Vsport around the 2.9-mile Milford Road Course - a challenging circuit laid out in the infield of an oval test track at GM's proving grounds in southeast Michigan. The MRC was built about a decade ago after Bob Lutz was lured out of retirement to work closely with GM's product development team, and thus, this circuit is known informally as the "Lutz Ring." The main objective of the MRC was to have an in-house facility for engineers to fine-tune vehicle dynamics, without having to constantly schlep cars over to Germany's infamous Nürburgring. (Of course, they still do.)
