1985 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Coupe

43k miles

78 high resolution pictures below

This immaculate 1985 Cadillac Fleetwood only has 43k one owner miles.

The Coupe made up just over 10% of the RWD Fleetwood production for 1985. This body began production in 1980 to appease the loyal Cadillac owners that were disgruntled over the 79 Eldorado Biarritz being drastically down sized. This full sized coupe with all it's trimmings filled the "personal luxury" spot well and production ran through midyear of 1985. Very few of these were saved and finding a good one often takes years to find. On any given day you can find a nice low mile Eldorado of this generation but the low mile Fleetwood Coupes are very scarce and have become very sought after. The demand for this body amongst collectors have more than doubled in the last 5 years as many Cadillac aficionados are snapping up the best examples for their collections. 1985 was the very last year for this incredible body style and from a design standpoint was GM at it's finest hour. These Brougham Coupes were the last of a classic style era which will never be produced again.

1985 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Coupe in rare triple white(paint, top and leather interior).

I have had the privilege of owning several of these Brougham Coupes in my 20+ years of Cadillac collecting, and this particular example is hands down the best of them all. This Fleetwood has always been collector owned and garage kept. With only 43k miles, this Cadillac needs no excuses and stands well to be a very lucrative long term investment. The best resale colors for these are white, red, blue and black. As far as color combos, triple white and triple black lead the pack in resale value. The car detailer I use is one of an elite group called upon to prep very high dollar pedigrees for Pebble Beach. Aside from myself, he is the only one I will let touch my cars and he just completed an extensive detail on this Cadillac. You could put this Fleetwood directly into a car show today.

This is by far the tightest, smoothest driving Brougham Coupe I have ever owned. This is one of those "steer with one finger" cars, tracking straight with very smooth braking.

This Cadillac spins heads and gets many a thumbs up.

The bumper rub strips are like new with no scrapes.

All lenses are as new, crystal clear and free of cracks

Dripping with chrome

Perfect proportions and factory stance.

Curb presence.

This Fleetwood Coupe was ordered with a generous list of options, with a sticker price of almost $27k whereas a base Fleetwood stickered for $21,219. Some of these options include; Leather Seating Area($680), Twilight Sentinel($85), Passenger seat recliner w/six-way power seat($380), Electric Remote-control Outside Mirrors($101), Symphony Sound AM/FM Cassette with CB($570), Illuminated Vanity Mirrors Driver and Passenger($140), Illuminated Entry System($80), Rear Window Defogger including Heated Outside Mirrors($220), and the list goes on.

GM's highest paint process and quality control went into the Corvettes and the Cadillac division.

There has been no parking by braille done with this Cadillac. Wire wheel covers are free of curb rash.

Aside from the filler panels which where recently replaced and re painted with a perfect color match, this car has factory paint all the way around and is very glossy. No fading anywhere on this car. No dings in the fender well trim.

Class at every angle.

The body is straight as an arrow.

Again, beautiful chrome with no rubs on the bumper rub strips. Tail light lenses are clear and as new.

Vinyl Landau top is as new.

Chrome rocker panels are like the rest of the car,,,gorgeous.

Passenger side

Driver's side

ALL chrome on this Coupe is luscious and pit free. Shows so much better in person.

Standard of Excellence

Door jambs are rust free and in excellent shape

This Cadillac has a striking nautical color scheme with the white and rich navy two-tone interior.

As new.

No other Fleetwood quite like this one.

Front passenger seat close-ups

The leather in this car is amazing!

Time capsule

Dash is perfect with no cracks or fading whatsoever.

43k miles

Not a single door ding on this Cadillac. None.

This Fleetwood is so fresh. Door panels are plump and free of cracks. Door jambs and hinge area are free of any rust or corrosion all the way around.

Seat belts are still snow white, even on the drivers side!

Drivers seat leather perfection.

To see this Fleetwood in person will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. It is a sight to behold.

Headliner has been replaced and is perfect.

These leather seats are a work of art. The details are amazing.

Very smooth and quiet runner. I would drive this car anywhere.

All the original floormats including the trunk mat are still with this car and near perfect condition.

I doubt you will see another quite like this one come around anytime soon. VERY hard to find especially with the coveted triple white color scheme.

Bid with confidence, win with high expectations!

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe configurator is ready to get personal

Wed, 17 Sep 2014

If you are in the market for a luxury coupe but would prefer it to be American, then you are in luck because the configurator for the 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe is now online.
Prices for the Cadillac start at $38,990 (including the $995 destination fee) for the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 272 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, or $46,145 for the 321-hp, 275-lb-ft 3.6-liter V6. Gearbox options include a six-speed manual on some 2.0 models or a six-speed automatic on both of them, and they can be ordered with all-wheel drive for $2,450 to the four-cylinder or $2,600 to the 3.6.
One thing that Cadillac does especially well here is giving customers a plethora of models and options to choose from. Trim level choices include standard, luxury, performance and premium for the four-cylinder or luxury, performance and premium for the V6. There are also 10 colors available, five of which carry an extra premium of $495 or $995. Upgraded interior packages for $1,295 add improved trim and leather, as well.

Online Find Of The Day: 2008 Cadillac XLR picks up where Excalibur left off

Thu, 23 May 2013

We try very, very hard to keep snark away from creations like the one you see here. After all, someone poured plenty of enthusiasm, time and money into turning a 2008 Cadillac XLR into a modern interpretation of the new-old cars typically done by cottage builders like Excalibur and Clénet. Even so, it's hard not to wince when you set an eye on this machine. With its wheelbase stretched to accommodate the extra bodywork, goofy sidewalls and upkicked nose (examine it in profile, it looks slightly bent in the middle), this "neoclassic" takes whatever was loveable about the Cadillac underneath and buries it in a tacky grave.
Miraculously, the engine bay has been left unmolested, which means the retractable hardtop convertible still features a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine good for 320 horsepower. If only that were enough to outrun its shame. If, for some reason, you feel like taking this thing home, Harry Kaufmann Motorcars of Milwaukee says it can be yours for a paltry $74,998. We wish were joking. Check it out here.

GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
