1972 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe 500 Cubic Inch 8.2l on 2040-cars
Waukesha, Wisconsin, United States
|
1972 Eldorado. 8.2 liter 500 Cu. In 375 HP.
This car has bee properly maintained, with the following replaced in the last two years: new vacuum hoses, rebuilt brake calipers, new brake pads, rebuilt brake master cylinder, new axle shafts, new brake hoses front and back, new rear brake shoes, cylinders, drums, rear wheel bearings and seals, replaced all of the exhaust after the Y pipe, new aluminum radiator, new water pump, hoses, belts, heater core, heater valve, heater control module, cruise control transducer, battery, Monroe shocks, rebuilt Quadrajet carb, new fuel pump, tuned up, new ignition coil, rebuilt alternator. The car was repainted years ago; the original color was Firemist Gold, but it was redone in a lighter gold color. The original keys, including gold-plated key with the Cadillac crest surrounded by laurels are included. This car is heavily-optioned, runs and drives excellently. The interior is in beautiful condition and the only issue with the body is some damage (visible in the last picture) to the right rear quarter panel from a tire blowout on the freeway. All 5 tires; the 4 on the ground and the spare, were all replaced immediately afterwards. The engine does leak coolant due to a rusted freeze plug that needs to be replaced. Odometer shows 90,448 miles. The only barrier to driving this car cross-country is the cost of gasoline. The only reason I'm selling it is because I'm moving to Texas and its too expensive to take the car with. I'm willing to work with international shippers, provided all the details are taken care of by the buyer and that payment is made in full prior to the car being picked up. Here's a video walk-around of the car with a brief demonstration of the acceleration: youtube.com/watch?v=gvoZkfzN_CQ |

Cadillac planning more Vsport models
Wed, 28 Aug 2013There's a new intermediate class of luxury performance cars emerging. Audi has been doing it for years with its S-line bridging the gap, in many cases, between the standard fare and the full-on RS performance range. BMW's getting in on it with the M Sport line slotting in below the full M models. And now Cadillac is joining the fun with its Vsport offerings.
Models like the CTS Vsport and XTS Vsport are packing a new 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 with 410 or more horsepower (along with bigger wheels and brakes) to slot in between the standard model and any impending V variant. Well, it appears Cadillac isn't about to stop there.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Cadillac product chief Hampden Tener revealed that, based on the response to the XTS Vsport, the brand is planning more Vsport models. He did not, however, indicate which would be the next to get the slightly sportier treatment. With the full ATS-V expected to pack a version of the same engine powering the aforementioned XTS and CTS Vsport models, an ATS Vsport would have to pack a smaller engine to fit in below. That only leaves the SRX crossover, Escalade SUV and the upcoming ELR hybrid. Food for thought.
Cadillac bids farewell to CTS-V Coupe with special edition
Mon, 12 May 2014With the introduction of the latest Cadillac CTS, we knew it would only be a matter of time before a new CTS-V would come along. Now General Motors has revealed that the next CTS-V will arrive sometime next year, but before it does, the company is sending off the outgoing coupe with a special edition.
For 2015, the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe will come in a limited edition of 500 units decked out with a dark grille treatment, satin-finish wheels, red brake calipers and an upgraded cabin. The interior is decked out Recaro seats trimmed in black with red stitching, Midnight Sapele wood trim, metal pedals and a microsuede-trimmed steering wheel and shifter.
Buyers will be able to opt for white, gray or optional black exterior paint, an available sunroof and a six-speed transmission in either manual or automatic configuration. Of course, the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 comes standard with 556 horsepower, as does Magnetic Ride Control and brakes by Brembo. Pricing will be announced closer to launch, but in the mean time, you can read all there is to know by checking out the official release below.
Cadillac's Euro reboot may have implications for US models, sales
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Firmly on the comeback trail in the US, Cadillac is still trying to get out of the starting blocks in Europe. At the Geneva Motor Show in March, Cadillac' senior execs revealed plans to grow the brand's presence in a luxury market dominated by the big three German marques, Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz.
GM President Dan Ammann says he sees "enormous" potential for Cadillac globally.
Over the past 20 years, the General Motors premium nameplate has tried and failed multiple times to break into the European market. This time around, Cadillac recognizes that progress will be modest at best, and depends on specific changes to models, some of which may impact the brand's US lineup. Planned new sales tactics in Europe may also impact the way Cadillac does business on this side of the pond.
