I’VE SET THE RESERVE LOW (XLR ENTUTIAST WILL HATE ME!) IN AN EFFORT TO GET IT INTO YOUR GARAGE.

You are viewing a fabulous 2004 Cadillac XLR. This car has been well maintained and any problem it has had has been expertly and promptly corrected. It has become one of the favorite “toys.” But, sadly it's time to let her go. Of course, that is only to make room for another toy J. I am not selling because I must, but rather for garage space (where she has always been kept.)

This car is a head turning, point at it and stare, “wish they had one” vehicle, wherever you go. Seldom will you see another on the road…they are just that rare. Cadillac only produced about 16,000 of these cars from 2004 – 2009.

Enough of that for now, if you’re looking, chances are that you know all this already.

Let me tell you more about this car:

EVERYTHING works exactly as it should. The roof goes up and down with ease. The computer is flashed with all the latest information.

I recently (2 months) put in an OPTIMA red top battery, the strongest and best I could find, to help insure electronic reliability. XLR’s can be very finicky if they do not have adequate power. 

The body is in excellent condition. That said, I do remind you that it is a 2004. I will say this, when people ask what year it is and I tell them, the response is "NO WAY!" 

The interior, lights, gauges, controls, navigation, radio all work as they should.

The diver’s side seat is showing signs of wear. The gentleman I bought the car from was a big guy and when he entered the car he would rub against the outer portion of the seat which caused the leather to wear thin. It has recently worn through and a small whole is there. Additionally, my dog loved this car with the top down (as yours will) and her nail has caused a small puncture on the driver’s seat and the passenger seat. NO, I did not let her drive, it happened as a result of her getting out of the car. These things are easily repairable for a couple of hundred dollars. If I were keeping the car I’d get it done.

The carpet is in excellent condition. The driver’s floor mat shows some wear. Replaceable…of course.

The front bumper does have some “road wear” from rocks et., visible and the cover for the headlight washer on the passenger side (in front of headlight on bumper) is missing. A couple of dollars I’m sure if you can find one at a junkyard. GM does not sell that cover by itself. there is a small "indentation" on the driver side bumper. I'm not sure how it got there, my wife hasn't fessed up to it. I’ve tried to depict these flaws in my pictures. If you need some closer shots, just let me know. I’ll send them to you.

The tires have probably 30 –40% life remaining. Again, if I were keeping the car I’d be thinking about changing them come Spring.

Finally, the mileage is approximately 110,00, considered low for the age of the vehicle. Yes, I have truly enjoyed this car and the majority of the mileage is over the road traveling.

I DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE BEFORE AUCTION'S END. VEHICLE IS ALSO BEING ADVERTISED ELSEWHERE. IF YOU”D LIKE TO MAKE ME AN OFFER, PLEASE DO SO AND I WILL ADD A “BUY IT NOW” OPTION IF OFFER IS AGREEABLE.

NO WARRANTY IS IMPLIED OR EXPRESSED.

The car will be completely detailed for your pick-up or delivery. Local pick-ups and/or inspection welcomed. Either of which I will assist as necessary.

Cadillac CT6 to be lighter than CTS, get PHEV model

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Cadillac is suddenly one of the most talked about automakers in the US with Johan de Nysschen taking control. The brand claims that it eventually wants to become, once again, the standard of the world. One of the first vehicles to actually prove whether that's possible is its upcoming CT6 flagship sedan. We still don't know what the production version looks like undisguised, but other important details are falling into place. The latest big news sheds some light on the Caddy's powertrain and some estimates of its weight and size.
General Motors product chief Mark Reuss dropped the details at the automaker's Global Business Conference. According to The Detroit News, he revealed that the CT6 would use a twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and a plug-in hybrid would be an additional option. He reportedly claimed it would be the most "powerful six-cylinder gas engine in the segment" and said the hybrid could get around 70 miles per gallon.
Reuss also revealed that the CT6 would be about 53 pounds lighter than the current CTS, despite being about 8 inches longer, according to The Detroit News. If that's the case, the new flagship is about 203.5-inches long, which is 1.5-inches more than the XTS.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
