NorthStar V8 ENGINE, Moonroof, Heated Leather Seats, Top of the line Bose 5.1 Theater Sound System with 15 speakers (including Subwoofer), Navigation System, On-Star Communications System, Hands-free cellular phone capability, 17" Wheels, New set of Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Plus tires (less than 3,000 miles), size 245/50R17, V-Rated, with new rear disc brakes. The Temporary Spare Tire has never been on the road or removed from its under-floor space in the fully-lined trunk. This was my mother-in-law's car. She bought it outright, nearly new, with a lien-free title. Over the next few years she kept it completely maintained by the local Cadillac dealer (who will vouch for its regular maintenance, supported by a thick bundle of receipts that will go with the car), garaged it all the time, and always babied it. Now that Mother no longer drives, this has become an extra car for us, so we are selling it to free up garage space for our cars. There are NO DOCUMENTARY FEES as found in other car ads. We have the clear, lien-free title (not a flood or salvage title). We are located in Abilene, Texas, 150 miles West of Fort Worth/150 miles East of Midland, Texas on Interstate 20. Abilene Regional Airport is served by an American Airlines subsidiary carrier with 8 flights in/out per day. If you want to fly in, we will pick you up at the airport at no charge. Our region seldom experiences ice or snow and is in a drought with very little rainfall, even by our standards. That has been the case since Mother bought it and there is obviously no rust or other weather-related issues of any type. 1SE equipment package is a thoroughly comprehensive equipment package offered by Cadillac.

OTHER OPTIONS & FEATURES Please remember this is a 2008 model and is not new. Although the car is a very clean, low mileage car, the car does have a small number of scratches, dings, or nicks. There certainly aren't very many. We would rather have the new owner more satisfied than expected! You are more than welcome to see the car in person, before completing the transaction. There will be a $500 Paypal deposit due within 24 hours that will be credited to the final price. The oil and filter were recently changed with Mobile 1 oil by the local Cadillac dealer (Lawrence Hall, Abilene), who also checked the car over just before its extended warranty expired in May, 2014.

Highlights of Edmunds 2008 Cadillac STS Review What's New for 2008 The 2008 Cadillac STS has been significantly
updated with revised styling and a more luxuriously trimmed interior and a
six-speed automatic transmission. Introduction The 2008 Cadillac STS
slots in between the inexplicably top-selling DTS land yacht sedan and the
sporty midsize CTS. To keep pace with its
more attention-grabbing sibling (as well as other larger luxury sport sedans),
the 2008 Cadillac STS has been revised inside and out. The wide, two-level
egg-crate grille is particularly striking, and the improved cabin trim is bound
to get the attention of full-size luxury car shoppers. We've always liked the current STS, and the
revised 2008 edition makes it even more endearing. Meanwhile, the STS' ride and
handling continues to impress with moves that almost make you forget you're
driving a sedan that's 6 inches longer and 200 pounds heavier than an E350.
Having a price that undercuts the competition by thousands doesn't hurt either. Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options The 2008 Cadillac STS is
a large luxury sport sedan available in V6 and V8 models. Both versions feature
17-inch wheels, leather seating, wood and alloy-look interior trim, eight-way
power front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, remote keyless entry
and vehicle start, satellite radio, an eight-speaker Bose sound system and
OnStar. The V8 version adds a CD changer, memory seating presets, heated seats
(front and rear), a heated steering wheel and rain-sensing wipers. Other features available on both models (in
packages or as a la carte items) include a sunroof, xenon headlamps, and heated
front and rear seats. The navigation system is bundled with a Bose
surround-sound audio system. (Seller's
note: This STS has all of the foregoing.) Powertrains and Performance The optional engine choice is a 4.6-liter V8
making 320 hp and 315 lb-ft of torque. Both engines come only with a six-speed
automatic transmission. Safety Antilock disc brakes, stability control and a
full complement of airbags are standard on every Cadillac STS. The airbags
include front-seat side and full-length side curtains. In Insurance Institute
for Highway Safety frontal-offset crash testing, the STS scored a rating of
"Good," the highest possible. It scored a second-best rating of
"Acceptable" for side-impact protection. Interior Design and Special Features Cadillac snazzed up the STS interior
significantly for 2008 with higher-quality wood and the addition of tasteful
alloy trim. A sporty new steering wheel looks and feels better, while more
wheel-mounted controls have been added. The good fit and finish remains and
luxury buyers should be pleased with this Cadillac's generally high-class
ambience. Controls are straightforward and easy to use, with the exception of
the confounding memory-setting procedure for the driver seat, mirrors, radio
and climate controls. Unlike traditional systems, which place buttons on the
door or driver seat, you must dive deep into the navigation touchscreen to set
memory functions. It's frustrating and unnecessarily complicated, but at least
it's something done only occasionally. Driving Impressions Although large in size,
the 2008 Cadillac STS sedan feels three-fourths its size when driven with
enthusiasm, yet it rides like a supple luxury car when you're gobbling up the
miles on the highway. Braking is strong as well, with progressive pedal action
and an impressively short 120-foot stopping distance from 60 mph. SELLER'S WARRANTY INFORMATION This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed, written, or implied.

Cadillac to launch Super Cruise semi-autonomous technology in two years [w/video]
Sun, 07 Sep 2014We all know that self-driving cars are coming. It's not so much a question of If so much as When. And when it comes to General Motors products, we now have something of a date to work with, as Cadillac has announced plans to roll out what it is calling Super Cruise technology in an unnamed new model within the next two years. As you would expect, this new tech can speed the car up, slow it down and keep it in its intended lane, but GM isn't expected to release a fully self-driving car, saying that it will still require "an attentive driver."
We're not quite sure what new model Cadillac will use to launch this new technology, but our best guess would be its upcoming LTS sedan. Other possibilities may include a new crossover - we've heard rumors of CUVS coming from Caddy both above and below the current SRX - or entry-level sedan, but those seem less likely than a high-dollar flagship like the LTS.
The next techy bit of kit currently being shown off by Cadillac engineers includes vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication, technology which would seemingly allow cars to travel in close proximity to one another, with less danger of collisions. According to our friends at Engadget, GM is working with the University of Michigan to outfit some 120 miles of roads in and around Detroit, MI, with the requisite sensors to make all this technology possible.
GM recalling 54k Cadillac SRX, HD pickup models
Thu, 01 May 2014There are more recalls to report General Motors, but these latest actions pertain to newer examples of the Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD. With so much scrutiny on the company's recall strategy, GM is under increasing pressure to call in defective models more quickly, and it appears to be doing so here.
Here in the US, the automaker is recalling 50,571 Cadillac SRX crossovers from the 2013 model year fitted with the 3.6-liter V6 because the transmission control module programming can cause a three- or four-second lag in acceleration at low speeds. The explanation filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states, "if the following sequence occurs within two seconds: during an upshift from first to second gear (8-10 mph), the driver then brakes the vehicle to less than 5 mph, and then accelerates again," the delay can occur. According to Automotive News, the recall effects 56,400 vehicles worldwide, and the company is not aware of any crashes caused by the problem. The fix consists of a transmission control module (TCM) reflash.
In a separate recall, GM is repairing 51 Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from the 2015 model year in the US. In vehicles with diesel engines and dual fuel tanks, the nuts that connect the fuel pipe to each side of the transfer pump between the tanks may be improperly torqued, which could cause a fuel leak. Obviously, this could be a fire hazard. The remedy is simply tightening the hardware. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, there have been no fires actually caused by the potential leak. "Only 21 of the trucks are in customer possession and they can be fixed anytime because there are no parts involved. The others are being fixed at dealerships," Adler said in an email to Autoblog.
Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
