Ultra Cool Coupe deVille Restomod!

An icon of automotive design, the name Cadillac is synonymous with luxury, style and success. Created at the emergence of the most flamboyant era of automotive design, this 1950 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe is a great example of how Cadillac became such an icon.

This beautifully executed restomod combines the best of mid-century design with modern upgrades to make this a very special car. A true rotisserie restoration, every component has been lovingly restored to new condition. Starting as a rust-free southern car, the body retains all its original GM sheet metal. You'll be struck by the simplicity of its Mercedes Alabaster White finish contrasted with the dazzling custom red interior. This car carries a commanding elegance.

As you would expect, there is chrome absolutely everywhere. All original and refinished to perfection, it sparkles in all the right places. Driving this car is not only a treat for you, but for everyone lucky enough to see, and hear, you coming.

And about that driving experience... This Caddy maintains the beauty of the '50s but with the feel of a much more modern car! Built on a fully restored 1976 Fleetwood frame, suspension and driveline, cruising is truly a treat.

Open the welded, smoothed and nosed hood, and you can't help but grin! Yep, a 500 cubic inch V8 powers this baby, easily and undeniably the best engine Cadillac ever built. This baby is mildly warmed over and full of performance goodies. It's a real thrill to drive this car. Heck, it's a thrill just to hear it! It's hard to put into words what it's like to hear the aggressive rumble in this gentle, elegant classic. But once you do, you'll understand what we mean.

Inside this classic is yet another sensory experience. The custom crafted red interior is a stunning combination of original and modern design. Hand painted faux wood on the dash and doors contrasts with beautifully finished chrome. New gauges are presented behind freshly restored original gauge faces. A genuine wood steering wheel rests atop the GM tilt column. Vintage Air, power windows and modern audio complete the comfort zone. Details abound...and every one was executed with careful craftsmanship and quality.

One must have had a special feeling when walking into the Cadillac showroom in 1950 and laying eyes on this classic beauty. And the same feeling still happens today. It is a real pleasure for Art & Speed to offer this special Cadillac as part of our line up.

Cadillac ELR update delayed over autonomous drive systems issues

Fri, Nov 28 2014

Rumors had been circulating that the 2016 Cadillac ELR would bow in Los Angeles recently, featuring, in Cadillac's own words, "engineering enhancements." The rumors and that quote are as far as it got – the updated ELR pulled a no-show in LA, and no one outside of the brand appears to know when it will appear. GM Inside News says its sources at Cadillac pinned the ELR's absence on some autonomous driving features not being ready to reveal. According to GMI, Cadillac insiders say the upgraded ELR will be a "highly autonomous vehicle," and the company needs more time to gets its systems polished. The site says "it's not unreasonable to assume that ELR will be [the] vehicle" that gets Cadillac's Super Cruise technology, but that seems a lot more involved than "engineering enhancements," and in September Cadillac said we'd see it sometime in the next two years. It's possible the wait for the 2016 ELR and its secrets might only be a couple of months: the next-generation Chevrolet Volt, which shares a platform with the ELR and whose engineering updates we know quite a bit about, is scheduled to appear at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show in January.

2014 Cadillac CTS starts $7k higher than last model at $46,025*

Thu, 13 Jun 2013

The redesigned 2014 Cadillac CTS will be more powerful, stylish and luxurious than its predecessor, but it will also be much more expensive. With a new starting price of $46,025 (*including $925 for destination), the 2014 CTS represents a price increase of more than $7,000 compared to the 2013 model, but it should be more appropriately sized and equipped to take on rivals like the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, which start at $47,800 and $51,900, respectively.
Available trim levels - referred to as Collections - include Luxury, Performance and Premium, offering either a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder or a 3.6-liter V6 and the choice of either rear- or all-wheel-drive configurations. For more performance, the all-new CTS Vsport model will have an asking price of $59,995. This 420-horsepower model is more powerful than both the BMW 550i and Mercedes E550 and about $2,000 less expensive than both.
There's still no word on what Cadillac has in store for a next-gen CTS-V sedan, but we're guessing power and price will both rise considerably. Scroll down for more info on the 2014 CTS that is set to go on sale this fall.

The UAW's 'record contract' hinges on pensions, battery plants

Thu, Oct 12 2023

DETROIT - After nearly four weeks of disruptive strikes and hard bargaining, the United Auto Workers and the Detroit Three automakers have edged closer to a deal that could offer record-setting wage gains for nearly 150,000 U.S. workers. General Motors, Ford Motor and Chrysler parent Stellantis have all agreed to raise base wages by between 20% and 23% over a four-year deal, according to union and company statements. Ford and Stellantis have agreed to reinstate cost-of-living adjustments, or COLA. The companies have offered to boost pay for temporary workers and give them a faster path to full-time, full-wage status. All three have proposed slashing the time it takes a new hire to get to the top UAW pay rate. The progress in contract talks follows the first-ever simultaneous strike by the UAW against Detroit's Big Three automakers. The union began the strike on Sept. 15 in hopes of forcing a better deal from each major automaker. But coming close to a deal is not the same thing as reaching a deal. Big obstacles remain on at least two major UAW demands: restoring the retirement security provided by pre-2007 defined benefit pension plans, and covering present and future joint- venture electric vehicle battery plants under the union's master contracts with the automakers. On retirement, none of the automakers has agreed to restore pre-2007 defined-benefit pension plans for workers hired after 2007. Doing so could force the automakers to again burden their balance sheets with multibillion-dollar liabilities. GM and the former Chrysler unloaded most of those liabilities in their 2009 bankruptcies. The union and automakers have explored an approach to providing more income security by offering annuities as an investment option in their company-sponsored 401(k) savings plans, people familiar with the discussions said. Stellantis referred to an annuity option as part of a more generous 401(k) proposal on Sept. 22. Annuities or similar instruments could give UAW retirees assurance of fixed, predictable payouts less dependent on stock market ups and downs, experts said. Recent changes in federal law have removed obstacles to including annuities as a feature of corporate 401(k) plans, said Olivia Mitchell, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School and an expert on pensions and retirement. "Retirees want a way to be assured they won't run out of money," Mitchell said.
