This was our daily driver, which still drives (but not legally due to no lights or taillights on one side), until a little water on the pavement decided to send us into the wires that separate the lanes on the interstate...thank goodness the wires were there though. We had only comprehensive and liability as the car has over 100k miles. Thus, there is no insurance involvement with this auto. What you have is a dedicated owner who wants to recoup some of the value of the automobile by providing someone with a good autobody project. What you get is an incredibly quick and fast car with all the bells and whistles.
Feel free to email me that you want me to call you...or just correspond via ebay's email.
The positives:
We own this car free and clear...no loan. Thus, we have title in hand.
The tires have about 15k on them...rated at 60k if my memory serves me correctly. (the rims on one side did get a little rash from the cable, and thus may need to be rebalanced and spiffed up)
Brakes and rotors all have less than 10k on them.
The car can still drive...we drove it 50 miles home after the accident. Everything still seems to work fine except the air conditioning (because the condenser located in the front of the radiator was punctured) and of course the lights and taillights broken in the crash.. So we drove it home without the air on so as to not ruin anything else related to the air conditioning.
We have owned this car for the last approximately 100,000 miles and have used nothing but synthetic oil every 4-5k miles.
The air bags did NOT go off, as the bumpers were not compressed. Wires wrapped around above the bumpers.
The trunk closes and opens, all four doors open and close, even the hood latches. When we drove it home we put a ratchet strap over it just in case it tried to release.
The negatives:
There are a lot of body panels injured...But, we kept all of the pieces that we could find and they are in the trunk.
The top half of the grill in front was pushed in toward the engine, but not far enough to stop operation of the fan or any other engine mounted apparatus such as alternator. There was no interference at all.

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.
Cadillac Elmiraj sedan RWD flagship finally caught testing
Wed, 22 Jan 2014While we still have no insight as to it being named Elmiraj, STS or some other permutation of the -TS nomenclature ("LTS" has apparently been registered by GM, as well), new spy shots give us proof positive that Cadillac is indeed hard at work on a rear-wheel-drive flagship model. Spied for the very first time in some north country testing, these shots provide a first look at the upcoming range-topper from Cadillac.
Impressively long and large bodywork ride atop new General Motors' corporate Omega rear-drive architecture here. Heavy cladding over camouflage may discourage finding any details, but the overall, sharp-edged and blocky design is clearly reminiscent of what we've seen on the new CTS and the recently debuted ATS coupe. A strong, wheels-at-each-corner stance helps emphasize the length of this stretched Caddy, and everything about the proportions seem spot-on for a new fullsize flagship for the brand.
It's quite possible that Cadillac will ultimately festoon this large sedan with detailing reminiscent of the original Elmiraj coupe, though thus far we've only seen prototypes wearing four-doors.
GM CEO Akerson calls out Tesla, says Cadillac will compete on EVs
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Cadillac will be taking on Tesla Motors, the underdog EV manufacturer that's seen heaps of critical acclaim and stock market buzz with its most recent sedan, the Model S. "If you want to compete head-to-head with Tesla, and we ultimately will, you want to do it with a Cadillac," Dan Akerson, the chairman and CEO of General Motors, told media in Washington, according to The Detroit News.
Akerson continued, telling The News, "We'll sell more Volts and lose less money on the Volts than they'll lose on the Model S." He also took time to point out that Tesla getting vehicles out to customers isn't a guarantee of success or permanence, using Fisker as an example, saying "Does anybody even remember Fisker? I mean, there were a number of them; they are all gone."
This strong talk from Akerson comes after Doug Parks, another GM exec, let slip that the Detroit-based manufacturer has an EV in the works that will cover 200 miles per charge and only cost about $30,000, a massive upgrade over similarly priced EVs that struggle to top 100 miles per charge. Until that vehicle arrives, though, GM is preparing the Cadillac ELR, a small coupe that, like the Volt with which it shares technology, uses a gas engine as a mobile generator to recharge the batteries. Akerson took aim at Tesla again, saying, "But I do think when the ELR comes out late this year, early next - it's certainly the same postal code as Tesla, but now we're going to move up. It's not going to be a mass-produced car."
