I'm selling a 1990 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, 5.0 V-8, Automatic transmission, power windows, power door locks, cruise, a/c, power seats, all the bells and whistles for 1990. The car runs good, shifts good, stops good, front end is very tight, rides like a dream. The interior is very clean and in above average condition. The carpet and seats have very little wear and have not faded out at all. Body is solid and no visible signs of rust, clean undercarriage. The car has had a repaint at some point, nice vinyl top. The paint has a good shine and good appearance, but has some cracking in the paint in a few different spots and would need to be repainted to be a showpiece. Here is what I know the car needs. The radio does not work, front floor mats are missing, will need a set of tires soon, plastic around the license plate needs to be replaced, the rear view mirror needs to be glued back on, and the a/c is not blowing cold but is all there. Also, sometimes the miles disappear from the dash cluster and will read 777777 and sometime nothing at all, then will go back to showing the miles. It just started doing this, don't know what's causing it. I bought the car in December 2011 from a man in Washington State who claimed to be the second owner. The car has 54,856 miles on it and they are suppose to be original. I was looking for the perfect barn find Brougham at the time that needed nothing and was flawless and I thought I found the car. Once the car arrived, I found that the front floor mats that were pictured when I bought the car were missing, the factory cup holders that were also pictured were gone, and the radio didn't play. It was suppose to have all original paint and never set outside. Quickly after the car arriving, I realized it was repainted at some point. While I did go over it with a fine tooth comb looking for body repair or rust, I could not find any. Don't get me wrong, it is a very nice car and I like it, but for the money I paid I wanted a flawless car. Before I purchased the car, he assured me the the paint was original and everything worked including the radio. When I confronted him about the problems, he claimed he would mail me the floor mats, but the rest was pretty much my baby to rock. Guess what, I never got my floor mats and he quit answering my phone. I got discouraged after receiving the car and ended up letting one of my employees drive it for about 9 months. I took the car back after he got too ill to work and now I'm selling it. While he was driving it, he bent the front fender which you will see in the pics.I know I won't get my money back, but its still a nice looking Brougham and it is hard to find one with this color of interior and in the great shape it is. I tried to tell all the bad about the car so there won't be any surprises when you get here to pick it up. If you have any questions, feel free to email me.

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.
2015 Cadillac Escalade gets 8-speed auto, range-topping Platinum Collection trim
Mon, 11 Aug 2014The redesigned 2015 Cadillac Escalade is still quite fresh on the market, but the luxury brand has a host of mid-model-year updates for its massive luxury SUV that should make it an even better driver. The range-topping Platinum Collection (pictured above) is also all set to ensconce drivers in leather when it hits the road in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The entire Escalade range now gets an eight-speed automatic to replace the previous six-speed, and four-wheel drive models also get a two-speed transfer case to go along with it. New standard features include a Surround View camera system, 4G LTE connectivity, and the electric tailgate also now closes hands-free, in addition to opening that way.
To make riding in the Escalade an even more luxurious experience, Cadillac is adding a Platinum trim. Exterior changes add even more shine to the behemoth SUV with a grille wearing the redesigned brand crest, additional chrome trim, 22-inch wheels and Platinum badges. However, the interior is where things really get plush. The first and second row of seats are wrapped in Nappa, semi-aniline leather in a choice of either beige or gray. The dashboard, upper door panels and center console also get hand-stitched and wrapped leather, plus a suede microfiber headliner. Both front seats are heated and cooled with 18-way power adjustments, and the driver even gets a massaging function. Rear passengers are hardly left out, either, with 7-inch LCD screens in the headrests and a 9-inch screen in the center.
GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
