Lake Orion, Michigan, United States

Up for sale is my beautiful 1961 Cadillac sedan DeVille. I hate to get rid of it but unfortunately I have other obligations and my loss is your gain. To start, this is an all original 1961 Deville with just over 56,000 original miles on it. Comes standard with the 390cid V8 package that includes A/C, AM radio, leather/cloth interior matching the body paint (gold/white), wide white wall tires, and power windows. The vehicle is equipped with A/C, however at the time of this listing, it is inoperative. Everything is there, but I just not have had a chance to try and charge it. The interior is beautiful as the seats were all redone in original fashion at the end of last summer and look like brand new. All the interior chrome is polished and shiny and the original door cards, headliner, and other interior pieces are in great condition. It also has like new 4-ply wide white wall tires, a brand new battery, fully rebuilt water pump, new air filter, and all the fluids were flushed just about a week or so ago (oil change, coolant flush, transmission flush). I also just recently had the transmission gone through and adjusted as well as the carburetor cleaned and throttle return spring replaced. All the chrome is in great shape with no pitting or blemishes. The grill, like all other Cadillac's of this age, does have slight oxidation in areas, but nothing that stands out. The paint is in great condition except for a few small imperfections here and there (left front fender-shown in pictures). No rust! This car has only had two owners before me dating all the way back to 1961 and was always garage kept and winterized every year! I also had a whole new stainless steel exhaust system put on it end of last year as well (sounds great!). It runs and drives beautifully with no issues and is a great cruiser with plenty of power. The only other thing it will need is to have the seat belts installed. Last summer I had the old ones taken out and new ones bought (included with the car) and just realized they were not installed yet. I also have a folder of paperwork including maintenance records, receipts, old blue prints, etc. as well as extra parts such as air filters, bulbs, seat belts, color-matching paint, and a water-proof car cover that will all be included with the car. All in all this car is ready to be driven daily with no issues and would be a great addition to anyone's collection. I just took her out the other day for a cruise with no issues whatsoever and if anyone is local and wants to come take a look or test drive it, feel free to give me a call or email. Also feel free to contact me if you have any questions whatsoever or if there's something I missed in the pictures that you would like to see. Happy bidding!

2015 Cadillac ATS sedan gets early reveal in making-of video

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Cadillac is apparently preparing to roll out a minor facelift for the ATS sedan - which we know not because General Motors has already revealed it or because we're looking at it in a fresh batch of spy shots (though we've seen that too), but because a behind-the-scenes video from the filming of its commercial has leaked out online. Which may be bad news for Cadillac, and even worse news for the film production company, but good news for us, because we get to see it ahead of schedule.
The revised sports sedan seems to be sporting a new front bumper and less egg-cratey grille with Caddy's new wreath-less badge at its center, all apparently put in place to bring the sedan more in line with the new ATS coupe.
We're sure Cadillac will be revealing the updated 2015 ATS sedan shortly, but you can scope it out right now in the video below. By way of comparison, we've included an image gallery of the current ATS, released back in 2013, as well.

Cadillac still planning for big things in China

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Despite some hiccups, China remains the auto industry's great hope for new vehicle sales, with significant sales gains and a huge upside. Nowhere is that hope more fervent than at General Motors, which offers eight different marques in the Asian nation. China has been GM's single biggest market the last three years running, and is unlikely to give up that title anytime soon. Yet its premiere brand, Cadillac, has remained essentially stagnant, selling just 30,000 units in China last year. That's in a segment where sales of luxury vehicles has outpaced that of the larger Chinese market. So what gives?
According to Cadillac officials Autoblog spoke with in China this week at the Shanghai Motor Show, it's been a problem of product - they haven't had the right ones. Displacement taxation issues, import tariffs and currency fluctuations have all conspired to make the brand's products less appealing than they might otherwise have been. But GM is stepping on the gas with Cadillac, and executives are eyeballing 100,000 sales by 2016 - more than triple the Wreath and Crest's current volume. And the expectations for the brand only get more ambitious from there - they're shooting for 10 percent of the luxury market by 2020. Bob Socia, President of GM China, promises that there will be a new Caddy launched in the market each year from now through 2016 and most will be built in China. Characterizing the company's efforts to revive the brand's fortunes as a "relaunch" of sorts, Cadillac also figures to gain dealers as GM expands its sales outlet footprint westward.
New products like a made-in-China XTS sedan (with a market-specific 2.0-liter four-cylinder to avoid heavy displacement taxes) will help, and Socia hinted that the ATS sport sedan could be next in line for in-country production. The SRX crossover - currently the brand's best-selling model in China - will also likely get a long look for future local production when the next-generation model is introduced. In the meantime, Cadillac unveiled the Escalade ESV Hybrid (shown above) as its latest model addition to capitalize on the market's white-hot luxury SUV segment.

Cadillac dealers get $5,000 incentive for ELR test drives

Tue, 13 May 2014

The 530 Cadillac dealers - out of 940 total dealers - that signed on to sell the brand's ELR for $75,000 or lease it for $699 per month have managed to move 247 of them in the last five months. That's a little less than two cars for each dealer more than two dealers for each car if you need help with the math. With inventories of the luxury plug-in hybrid building up - Automotive News reports a 725-day supply - General Motors has created the Demonstrator Allowance Program to billow the sails on that slow moving ship, giving dealers $5,000 to promote ELR test drives.
A dealer with one ELR in its test fleet that racks up 750 test driven miles between May 1 and June 2 earns the fifty Benjamins, a dealer with two ELRs in the test fleet will get one hundred Benjamins. That will be added to summer incentives for dealers that pay $2,000 for units sold in July and $1,000 for units sold in August, while on the customer side, Cadillac has put "customer discount certificates" worth $3,000 on the hood for buyers and lessees.
Cadillac suggests this is about raising awareness of the ELR, but the question is how much dealers will be able to do for a car that observers - and buyers, apparently - still consider highly overpriced.
