***1966 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, 2-owners, 39k Original Miles, What A Ride!! on 2040-cars
Wakefield, Massachusetts, United States
1966 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD BROUGHAM TWO OWNERS 39,654 ACTUAL MILES The car has a neat history. The original owner was a man named William F. Powell from Philadelphia who got the title on 8-22-66. One of the cool things is a book suggesting service visits in which he noted the mileage on visits for the first couple of years. (I think it's in the glovebox). He put on VERY few miles. He sold it on 12-24-88 to a car dealer (probably a trade in) Auto World in Gathersburg Maryland. It had 26, 277 miles on it, meaning he had driven just over 1,100 miles per year. Auto World transferred it to a dealer in Springfield, MD - Motor City Auto Sales on 4-30-89. It had 26,690 miles on it. The current owner bought it on 6-20-92 with 26,815 miles on it, making him the 2nd registered owner. Over the past 20 years, he brought it up to about 39,600 miles or about 600 miles per year. I have all of this documented. It was an original paint car up until it was hit in the rear of the car 14 years ago by a neighbor. The car was painted completely, and the roof was all re-done. It does have some minor rust starting from water trickling down the vinyl roof behind the rear windows. This will need to be dealt with eventually, but most people don't even notice it, but I wanted to disclose it. It's also missing the lettering on the right side - F L E E T W O O D. At some point water had leaked into the trunk damaging the trunk liner, but you can find reproduction trunk liners now. The red/organe cloring you see in the trunk is NOT RUST it's the red oxide primer coating under the paint, the trunk is rock solid. The interior is nearly perfect, including the original floor mats. The wood has some staining. The front vent window gears were replaced, they weren't available for the rear vents. (It has 8 electric windows!) I just had a new muffler put on it recently. It has rear air shocks, I'd replace the back springs. The car runs great, it's tight, and fun to drive. It has almost all options, except cruise, rear window defogger and heated seats. I have a cruise control someone could add. I also have the rear window defogger blower, etc that someone could add. I also will include two extra wheel covers, a headlight bezel, and a couple of other small parts. I think the cruise control and defogger cost me about $500 combined when I bought them. So, that's the history. It was the top of the line Cadillac with the exception of the Limousines, and is similar in some ways to the Eldorado convertible for 1966.

2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Bridging The Gap With Power And Poise
As you read these words, West Coast Editor Michael Harley is preparing to drive the brand-new 2014 Cadillac CTS along the gorgeous, sun-drenched roads of Southern California. And while I'll wait for Harley's full report before I put words in his mouth, I'm willing to bet he enjoys the hell out of Cadillac's new CTS. In fact, I'm sure of it.
I say this with confidence because, about a month ago, I spent the better part of a day flogging the new CTS Vsport around the 2.9-mile Milford Road Course - a challenging circuit laid out in the infield of an oval test track at GM's proving grounds in southeast Michigan. The MRC was built about a decade ago after Bob Lutz was lured out of retirement to work closely with GM's product development team, and thus, this circuit is known informally as the "Lutz Ring." The main objective of the MRC was to have an in-house facility for engineers to fine-tune vehicle dynamics, without having to constantly schlep cars over to Germany's infamous Nürburgring. (Of course, they still do.)
Cadillac ELR, Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas win Eyes on Design awards
Fri, 18 Jan 2013This year's annual Eyes on Design awards were presented at the end of press days for the Detroit Auto Show on Tuesday. Given out for the best production and concept car designs that debuted at the show, and voted on by an esteemed panel of actual car designers, this year's award for best production vehicle design went to the 2014 Cadillac ELR. The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, which was the show favorite among Autoblog editors, apparently did not impress the Eyes on Design judges enough with its all-new vent-festooned design.
The award for best concept design was actually split as a tie among the Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas concepts. Last year's winners were the 2013 Ford Fusion and the Lexus LF-LC concept.
The Eyes on Design organization also presented a new honor this year called the Catalyst Award to Bob Lutz, former Vice Chairman of General Motors. Lutz is reported to have given a defense of design in his acceptance speech, arguing that advancements in quality across the industry as a whole have made good design a key differentiator for buyers.
Cadillac sales chief Peffer resigns amidst slow sales
Fri, 20 Jun 2014Cadillac continues to hemorrhage executives, as it's just seen its fourth high-level departure in the past year. Vice President of Global Strategic Development Don Butler (who defected to Ford) and European President and Managing Director Susan Docherty both left the company of their own volition, while Chase Hawkins, Cadillac's vice president of sales and service, was fired following a "violation of policy" in July of 2013. Strangely, it's Hawkins' replacement, Bill Peffer (shown above), who has handed in his papers this time around.
"Bill left to pursue other interests. Kurt McNeil replaces him, effective immediately," spokesman David Caldwell told Autoblog via email.
McNeil last held the VP of sales and service position back in 2012. He's currently the vice president of US sales for all of General Motors. According to The Detroit News, McNeil will take on the post in what is likely an interim capacity.
