If you've been waiting for the sharpest 2002 DTS, look no further.

THE GOOD:

I bought this in 2003 with less than 2000 miles (two thousand) so it's virtually a one-owner car (first owner bought it as as surprise for is wife, who then announced "I wanted a Lincoln Navigator!"). It's been the best car we ever owned, and we have a previous long history of Mercedes-Benz ownership. It has every option available at the time- including navigation, sunroof, night vision, hands-free phone, leather, heated seats (all 4), lumbar seats (front), top-of-the-line Bose sound with CD changer, premium 3-stage paint, and far more- too much to list here. Cost new was $65,000 and there are several post-factory upgrades such as custom billet grille, gold emblem package, stainless steel fender trim, additional luxury wood interior trim, trailer hitch, etc. Senior owned, never smoke in. Looks, runs, drives, and rides like the true luxury car it is.

Maintenance- dealer maintained for the first 100,000 miles. Oil has been changed very 3000 miles from new. New struts (all 4, original electronic front and air rear struts), major brake rebuild (pads & rotors), new air pump for rear struts, and new tires- all this within the past 10,000 miles. Also new alloy wheels less than 2 years ago. Super clean, the only time it spent nights out of a garage was during winters in Florida where it was in a carport.

Accident history- One low speed deer hit- minor damage (to the car, another story for the deer), also some idiot with a pickup backed into me in a parking lot with his tailgate down and dented the deck lid, which was replaced and once got kissed in the rear while stopped at a traffic light- very minor hit- only a one inch crack in the rear bumper, which was replaced. No other accidents.

THE BAD:

Known defects- driver's seat heater is inoperative, oil leak at crankcase pan gasket, and "Service Engine Soon" light comes on occasionally. This began to happen a few years ago and at first I panicked. Took it to dealership where they checked it out. Code showed exhaust system anomaly but car ran just fine so they reset the code and told me to not worry about it. A while later, light came on again. Took it to 2 other shops for opinions with same result- "ignore it" as long as car is running OK. Now the light comes on intermittently. Sometimes it goes off by itself after a few days, sometimes I get tired of looking at the light and take it in to have the code reset- always the same thing ("check exhaust system"). I've been told by several mechanics that the sensors that trigger these warnings get cranky after a few years and can't be trusted for accuracy.

THE UGLY:

There is no ugly- this car is beautiful. Paint is still bright and shiny, upholstery is cean and only shows minor wear. Same is true for carpeting.

Although she's "experienced", this one still has lots of miles and years of good service left. You might find cheaper, but I doubt you can find a better one. Amazingly, it still has the original battery but it must be getting tired so I will install a new one for the new owner.

Reserve price is less than 1/10 the original cost. If reserve is not met, I may accept a near offer, so bid accordingly and be prepared to honor your bid- I will relist it with "Buy It Now" at your high bid price.

Cadillac to move select offices from Detroit to Manhattan?

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

Under Johan de Nysschen, Infiniti moved its headquarters from Yokohama, Japan, to Hong Kong. Now at Cadillac, it appears the company's new president could be planning a relocation of at least some of the brand's operations from Detroit to Manhattan, according to a new report from Reuters.
In the case of Infiniti, de Nysschen pushed for the move because moving away from the brand's Nissan overlords would allow it a bit more freedom. It's evidently a similar case for Cadillac, with Reuters speculating that such a move would help distance the brand from the corporate culture in Detroit. A Big Apple move could also attract new talent that may have considered a job with the brand but were put off by the idea of living in Detroit.
It's important to note that if such a move takes place, it likely won't affect the folks actually responsible for developing the brand's vehicles. Instead, administrative functions, including marketing, could be the focus of the relocation.

Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400 priced at $48,855, AWD at $50,855

Fri, Apr 8 2016

Infiniti's most powerful production model, the new Q50 Red Sport 400, now has a starting price. You'll need at least $48,855 for the rear-drive model or $50,855 for all-wheel drive. (Both figures include the $905 destination charge.) A fully loaded, rear-drive Q50 RS400 with Direct Adaptive Steering, navigation, adaptive cruise control, a heated steering wheel, and Infiniti's entire alphabet soup of safety equipment, tops out at $57,045. (Again, add $2,000 for AWD). When it comes to rear-drive competition, the closest base price to the Q50 is the 320-hp BMW 340i. This German undercuts the Infiniti by two grand, $46,795 to $48,855. But the BMW outprices the Q50 as soon as you start selecting options. A 340i with similar equipment to a loaded Q50 Red Sport 400 costs just under $60,000. All-wheel-drive German competitors also lose out in the price war. Like with the rear-drive models, the BMW 340i xDrive undercuts the Q50 RS400 by around $2,000. Add the options, and the Infiniti becomes a better value. The other two big German rivals, the Audi S4 and Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG start at a higher price and only get more expensive. Technically the S4 starts cheaper than the Q50, but only with the standard manual transmission. Selecting the S-Tronic dual-clutch model kicks the price from $50,125 to $51,125, and going for the top-end Prestige trim will bump potential Audi owners up to $57,025. Throw on must-have S4 options, including adaptive cruise control, adaptive dampers, and a sport differential and you'll be shell out $64,425 for the Audi. The Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG is the priciest choice in this group, starting at $51,725, or roughly $900 more than a base Q50 RS400 with AWD. Options, again, are the downfall here. Building a C450 to match a loaded Infiniti will drive the Mercedes' price up to $64,315. While it occupies something of a weird space relative to these vehicles, it's also worth mentioning the Cadillac CTS VSport. It's the only car in this impromptu pricing comparo that can outgun the Q50, with its 3.6-liter, twin-turbo V6 good for 420 hp and 430 lb-ft of torque. It also starts at $60,950, although that includes plenty of standard equipment. All this means that the Q50 Red Sport 400 represents a relative value. It packs more power than the Germans – 80 more than the 340i, 67 more than the S4, and 38 more than the C450 Â– and a more comprehensive list of options, too.
