Every exceptional car should come with some history; in the case of my wife’s car, it was purchased in AUG. 2008. The Dealer, Armen Cadillac-Hummer, Plymouth Meeting, PA, mileage then 34,324 on the odometer; MILEAGE now 42,646 rust free, always dry and garage kept. It’s been a pampered weekend only vehicle, and has been driven only some 8,000 miles since our purchase; in fact, in the last 2 years it’s been driven less than 3,000 miles since our move in 2011 from the Washington DC area to Louisiana. When I wrote this AD I noticed CARFAX/CARCHEK posted a Minor Accident and lowered our rating so I pulled the AD to find out what had we missed. It turns out, a character off in the VIN of another like vehicle caused a mix up. We contacted the Police Department in which the incident was reported and they quickly resolved the issue and we applaud the Lake Mills, WI PD, specifically the Chief and Records Person for their help and great service. On the other hand, CARFAX/CARCHEK have their own process (wait in line) and we'll get around to it. As such, I posted the Lake Mills, WI PD response for your confidence in buying a accident free vehicle. All PMs have been timely, no failures or major repairs have been required. All instruments/components work and the retractable top is fully functional. The car still has ONSTAR onboard and that may be transferred at the Dealer for a fee. The car comes with all the standard XLR options such as: ABS, AIR, Leather Seats, CD, HID Projection, Back-Up Curb Sensor, Navigation, Power Seats and dozens of more items, just email me if you have any questions. Since we restored and own a 1963 and 1965 Corvette we couldn’t help but add some XLR upgrades. Not wanting to change any comfort or safety feature or make some unfamiliar modification, we stuck to Tire Wheels and Brake upgrades. Most importantly, if she had a flat while riding alone she’d have some piece of mind. To complement our safety concern (no spare onboard standard) and wanting the XLR-V stance and lower profile, we sized up the tires adding 4 Pirelli (Eufori @8) Run Flat tires, P255/40R-19 rear and P235/45-19 front. Adding to the braking Performance, we added Drilled Disc Performance Rotors that greatly improved an already great braking system and upgraded to Performance Ceramic brake pads; also, we added new Cadillac Chrome 19 inch wheels, caps and locking lug nuts. The entire tire, wheel, and brake package has less than 3,000 miles of use and just saved you over $7,500.00. The car has a couple super small rock nicks almost invisible unless you’re inches from the body, but that’s probably standard at this age; I’ll give it a 9.5 out 10 on the Paint; the pics tell the true story. The interior is exceptionally clean, smoke free, smells like new, looks new and feels new. The car rides, sounds like new and drives like it and needs nothing and can be driven anywhere. Why are we selling? Due to the lack of smooth surfaces in our area and different driving requirements; her taste have turned to the acquisition of a SUV. So, if you’re interested in this type of a vehicle, this one provides some of the XLR-V perks but not the price and will be a dependable and pristine car to own. Just turn the key and smile!
The car is being sold AS-IS NO WARRANTY implied or offered. We reserve the right to end the auction early if a sale is completed. Good luck and happy bidding. On Nov-06-13 at 16:20:59 PST, seller added the following information:

Cadillac developing stretched ATS-L just for China
Sat, 25 Jan 2014To luxury automakers, long-wheelbase sedans are to China that crossovers and SUVs are to the US, so it isn't all that surprising any more when the latest sedan gets an extra couple of inches between the wheels to improve rear-seat comfort. According to Car News China, the next sedan to get the stretch will be the Cadillac ATS, which will increase the wheelbase by 10 centimeters (about four inches) to become the ATS-L.
Designed to go up against rivals like the BMW 335Li and the added-length Mercedes C-Class, the ATS-L will reportedly be built locally in China with an engine list that will grow as well. Currently, only the 2.0-liter turbo engine is offered in the ATS in China, but the ATS-L will get the full spectrum of ATS engines including the base 2.5-liter and the peppier 3.6-liter V6. This isn't the first time Cadillac has offered a China-specific stretched sedan either as the SLS dates back to 2006.
Cadillac LTS flagship to bow at NY Auto Show
Wed, 06 Aug 2014There is widespread agreement across the industry that Cadillac needs a proper, rear-drive flagship sedan that completes legitimately with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series.
Fortunately, the same view is held within the company, and just such a car - possibly dubbed LTS - is under development. According to a high-level source at Cadillac, the new four-door, which is said to incorporate design cues from the marque's celebrated Elmiraj coupe concept, will debut at the New York Auto Show next April.
If the car needs a cheerleader, surely incoming president Johan de Nysschen is just such a person. De Nysschen doesn't arrive at Cadillac until late in the month, but certainly he will want a proper flagship to do battle with his old foes at Mercedes-Benz and BMW and old friends at Audi and Infiniti.
Cadillac SRX likely to see next-gen built in China
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Here's some shocking news to no one: People love crossovers, including those living in China. Since introducing the Cadillac SRX there in 2009, the model's sales have gone through the roof. Now, the brand is considering moving some production of the next-generation model in China to eliminate import tariffs and make it an even bigger player in the market.
According to a recent report in The Wall Street Journal, the crossover is leading Cadillac's Chinese growth, despite its US-equivalent price of over $67,000 after the country's high import tariffs. The CUV's sales are up 23 percent there so far this year, and it's responsible for over 40 percent of the brand's sales. John Stadwick, General Motors' VP of sales, service and marketing in China, told the WSJ that GM could "very possibly" build the next-gen model there.
The SRX is Cadillac's golden goose in China, and it just keeps pushing the brand's sales forward. "It's the vehicle that took us out of being a small niche in the market," said David Caldwell, Cadillac Communications Manager, to Autoblog. Before the CUV, Caddy was selling a little over 20,000 cars a year there, but partially thanks to the crossover's success, the brand sold 50,000 vehicles last year and could reach 60,000 this year. "The SRX is the most popular Cadillac in that market," he said.
