Morton Grove, Illinois, United States
|
Hard to find 2005 Cadillac STS V8 (320 hp) AWD (125,000 miles) with Navigation, Adaptive Cruise, Heads-up Display, Keyless Entry with push button start, Bluetooth, Satellite Radio, Remote start, and 300-watt 15 Speaker Bose Surround Sound system with MP3 capability. ONLY ONE LIKE THIS SELLING IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY (just search 2005 STS with V8, AWD, Adaptive Cruise, and nothing will come up!) For those not familiar with Cadillac Heads-up-display, this is a really cool feature and one of the main reason I bought this particular car; it actually projects a hologram type of image out in front of the driver just above the front edge of the car, thus allowing you to see important info without having to look down or refocus your eyes. It shows speed, climate control, navigation information, radio information, and RPM and gear info when in manual shift mode. This car is loaded with every option except engine block heater. Just some of the more expensive options are: 18" wheels, Magnetic Ride Control, Intellibeam (auto high beam), Magnasteer, DVD Entertainment System, Xenon High Intensity headlights, memory seats, heated/ventilated front seats, heated back seats, heated steering wheel, power sunroof, rain sense wipers, auto headlight cleaner, rear spoiler, tire pressure monitoring system, new tires, recently tuned up (see below), drives great; will easily go another 100,000 miles (tune ups on this engine are scheduled every 100,000 miles!) Everything works great. Body is in great condition except for small passenger door dent (hard to see in pictures) and cracked passenger door window. Pricing this car below kbb "good" value primarily because of dent and cracked passenger door window. Clean carfax. PLUS - Over $2,500 worth of maintenance done at 100,000 mile tune up!: 1) New Ignition Coils 2) New Spark Plugs 3) New Oxygen Sensors 4) New Coolant Temp. Sensor 5) Coolant Flush 6) Replaced Motor Mount 7) And of course had oil change 8) Transmission Flush Car being sold AS IS. |

Cadillac to vie for Secret Service armored car contract, new Beast?
Wed, 03 Jul 2013President Obama has used the same armored limo since his inauguration in 2008. Known by many as The Beast, the Presidential Limo was provided by Cadillac and earned its nickname in large part because of its massive size, which isn't surprising considering that its Caddy-shaped bodywork is said to sit atop a heavy-duty truck chassis.
It seems the Secret Service may be in the market for a Beast replacement, having issued a request for proposals for a new armored limo. According to Motor Trend, Obama's backup limo is a leftover from the Bush Administration, so it will be interesting to see if this new machine will serve as a replacement for The Beast or for its backup. The contract is to be awarded by September 29, 2013.
The boys from MT contacted Cadillac, Lincoln and Chrysler, and Chrysler is the only one that would confirm that it is not pursuing the contract. Cadillac may have the inside track, as it has provided Presidential limos since 1993, but Lincoln also has a long and storied history of chauffeuring the President.
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
