1990 Cadillac Brougham - 5.7 Liter - SHOW CAR!
1990 Cadillac Brougham. 5.7 Liter, FE2 Handling Suspension, Trailer Package, triple white, blue accents with red/and blue pin stripe,. 24K mile perfect example. "As Good As It Gets" is the name I have bestowed on this particular Brougham, and the reason why is because nothing you see or have seen is quite like this one. I sold this car a some years ago to a collector here in town. Upon Mark's purchase, he took what was a near factory perfect saved car and made it a true #1 level show car. His idea was to make this car the way Cadillac should have done it if they had a Rolls Royce Budget. Although some of the details in this car will be lost to photographs, many can be seen, and as an overall package, it should literally blow you away. The end product here may be the most perfect Brougham in terms of details, quality and fit and finish the world has seen.
It took a driven person with a mission and a budget that could have bought a new Rolls to do this. You are not looking at normal, and as I said, this car may appear to be little different than some of the other nice ones you see, but side by side it is a few steps beyond. I have 300 mile New Broughams in my collection, although they are brand new perfect as the factory made them, they are not like this car in level of detail or fit and finish. The work put into this Brougham was done by Dusold Enterprises one of the finest Automotive Restoration organizations in the country. Now when I say restoration, that is not what this car needed. It was "vastly improved" upon from a perfect factory original. David Dusold set out to keep as much of this car's originality in place, and it the end product has as much, if not more, integrity than the original day one car. Where GM lacked, Dusold made up for by leaps and bounds. If you notice the fillers on this car, they are more perfect than any Cadillac of this era to date. The real weak point of the Brougham with the rear filler and trunk area finish out is the best ever taking all Broughams in consideration. The door jambs and underside hood are what we would label as "Rolls Royce" standard. Notice the strikers, sill plates and more. The headliner is one piece leather hide with a vintage pattern that fits the car. Sun visors and sail panels are doeskin leather to match seats with French stitching. The map lights are color keyed, under hood is high detail with all engine accessories and brackets finished to the highest level detail of any show car. All aluminum under hood has hours of polishing work and all the suspension parts have been powered coated. This is just some of the work, the rest of it would take a few paragraphs then some.
All in all, I have had over 200+ Broughams in my day, have seen the best of the best, have owned some of the best, but this particular car took it a good step further. Nothing is quite extravagant in the letter of perfection as this car has achieved. I have had lower mile, I have had more rare, I have had ones with 500HP engines built out of 2000 mile new cars.... However, the angle this car achieves is to please the absolute infinite perfectionist with the most detailed eye and over expecting demands. When a guy like me sells a car out of my collection, I always wonder and hope that what I have sold will meet the new owners expectations. It takes a while to get to know a car, so photos are not always the answer, but good ones sure help. If this car were ever sold and the person buying this car was not happy with it.... Well there has never been a car to date anywhere they would be happy with. And that is why this car is called "As Good as it Gets!
This car is not for everyone... As I stated and as many may know... I have 4 broughams in the collection right now with under 1000 miles, one that literally has never moved. All are their top respective examples, probably the best the planet has to show.... However.... None are to this level, as they simply were never made this way new.

The most detailed Brougham ever!
White is so hard to show how nice it is in photos.... This car made it easy!
The body lines of this car are that of the finest Concours Show car out there.
Zoom in and try and catch the detail
Look at the strikers and sill plates
Now go look at one of my brand new Broughams here... They will pale in comparison.
Custom built factory stereo with many mods inside. This REALLY sounds good.
Zoom in on the underside of the hood. Just nothing like that on these cars.
Screaming perfection from every angle.
A taste of what the engine compartment is like up close.

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
A few signs that Cadillac's revival is taking hold
Mon, 08 Apr 2013Only a flatworm would not have predicted the Cadillac ATS would help increase sales for America's erstwhile luxury brand of record; however, even the best automotive oracles didn't realize by how much: The ATS fueled a 49-percent increase of the brand's year-on-year sales in March, the sixth straight month of growth for Cadillac. The momentum helped push General Motors to post a 6.4-increase in sales in March versus 2012, leading its domestic competitors.
Dealership salesmen are among the first to register the shift occurring at Cadillac. A Texas dealer related an incident in which he helped a mother affix a baby seat in a car for a test drive, explaining that as opposed to the older buyers that are still a Cadillac mainstay he's getting "a pretty diverse group that's coming through the door now" who are "younger and better educated." Aided by incentives on the ATS, Cadillac's sales are up 38 percent so far this year, overtaking Acura as the fourth best selling luxury brand, and GM stock is benefiting with incremental gains because of it. Based on early response, the new 2014 Cadillac CTS should keep things going in the same direction.
The trend at the Wreath and Crest is part of a larger sales trend happening among domestics - with other models like the Dodge Dart and Ford Fusion doing well - and overall US car sales. Head over to Bloomberg for the big picture and role the ATS plays in it.
Off-road Cadillac Escalade adds some extra bush country capability
Wed, 26 Jun 2013So, you're a dyed-in-the-wool General Motors fan, but like the notion of a machine like the Hennessey Velociraptor. We have good news for you. Behold the Aria Coachworks XPLORE Cadillac Escalade. For a modest fee, Aria will outfit your Escalade with a custom suspension, BF Goodrich all-terrain tires wrapped around aluminum wheels, a Warn winch and a special exhaust. There's even a snorkel option for those of you with aspirations toward deep water crossings. Consider yourself warned, however: unlike other GMT900 SUVs, the Cadillac only has an all-wheel drive system, not the more rugged four-wheel drive setup of the Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon). Outside, the luxury SUV gets matte paint, black chrome trim, XPLORE power running boards and a roof rack system.
The interior also receives a few fun changes as well, but we're more interested in the fact that buyers can snag a power roof top tent. You know, in case you need to camp out at Best Buy for the PS4. There's also a matching camp trailer and, our personal favorite, a matching BMW GS motorcycle. Bikes not your bag of tricks? That's fine. Aria will also sell you a matched Airstream trailer or Old Town wooden canoes. As much as we want to hate this, we love the notion of bashing through the woods in a $100,000 Cadillac battlewagon with our GS in tow. Check the press release below for more information.
