Custom Coupe Convertible - Mint Condition on 2040-cars
Plano, Texas, United States
|
For sale and for the first time ever on eBay is my sweet 1989 Cadillac Fleetwood Coupe Convertible. This beautiful shiny black car with d'Elegance grey leather interior with only 55, 365 original miles. This Cadillac is a Custom Car Craft (Eisenhardt and Hess) conversion. Original Nevada car with one owner for over 20 years who passed away and left it to his son in Dallas who had it shipped to Texas in 2012. Some service records back to 1992 and all recent work available. Upon arrival in Dallas, the son had a full mechanical inspection and service. The oil, brakes bled, radiator flush, and AC R-134 (ice cold) were serviced at that time and he had the air suspension converted to rear struts and the front end aligned. Since I have owned the Caddy, I have added new Vogue tires with less than 200 miles, fresh wax & detail, state safety inspection, and oil change. This Fleetwood coupe is and ultra rare conversion by Car Craft and this is the Wikipedia entry on custom coach convertibles is below. I have owned many convertibles and this top is by far the finest construction of them all especially when compared to the GM scissors tops of the 70's. Top shows only one blemish which is reflected in the pictures. Otherwise it is clean and tight running down the highway at 75 MPH. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coach_convertible Conversions of GM products It is estimated
a production total near 300 Coupe Devilles
were converted. However, the Fleetwood Coupe is a much more rare and more
desirable collector car and perhaps less than 10 are in existence. The same
basic design was used for model years ’86-91. At that point, it seems
that Car Craft vanished as part of the S+S Coach/Superior Company and they
appeared to focus on limousines and hearses. They are now part of the

(1977–1978) This condition of this car is excellent to mint and it's a stunner at the car shows and draws a lot of attention going down the road. It has always been maintained and stored indoors in dry weather climates its whole life. Besides the custom top, the car's frame was upgraded with custom cross members for support and it is the smoothest riding Cadillac I have ever drove. It's suspension is a little firmer than stock, but it still floats down the road like a dream. No squeaks, rattles or smells. There are some very minor imperfections in the paint like small scratches and chips, buy they are barely noticeable. You have to really look close to see them. I urge you to have the car inspected prior to purchase at your own expense and I will assist in making the car available. Here is a list of the following features:
I have a lot of money in this car and don't have to sell it, but I want a new Corvette so I am willing to part with the Caddy for the right price. I will ship overseas and assist with shipping internationally. Bank wire transfer with confirmed deposit is the only way I will do a transaction not local to Dallas, TX. I feel I have described this Cadillac accurately and the next owner will be proud to be the owner and take it to shows or just drive for fun. I will answer any emails to the best of my ability and will take phone calls if you email me your number. Lastly, I've sold a few cars on eBay so I know how it works and will not tolerate scammers and they will be reported. My name is Sean and I look forward to speaking to you about the car.

Cadillac mulling CTS Coupe successor after all
Thu, 04 Apr 2013The 2014 Cadillac CTS made a big splash last week at the New York Auto Show, but now that we've seen the sedan, we can start to wonder about whether coupe and wagon versions are in the cards. According to Edmunds, Cadillac is at least considering bringing back the CTS Coupe for a second generation, which seems like an even better chance since the brand's global marketing director, Jim Vurpillat, was quoted as saying that the car was the top-selling luxury coupe in the industry.
Of course, this goes against reports we heard last year that Caddy's coupe and wagon would live on just not under the CTS name, but the interview with Vurpillat has us hopeful for a next-generation CTS Coupe. If it does come to fruition, we would expect the new two-door to have a largely unique exterior design like the current CTS Coupe, to echo that of intended rivals like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe and even the high-dollar BMW 6 Series.
2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing First Drive Review | A magnificent sunset
Tue, Aug 3 2021Rising from the ashes of the ATS-V, the 2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing represents the ultimate (in the purest sense of the word) in compact performance from GM’s luxury brand. The name Blackwing was originally applied to a stillborn, twin-turbocharged V8 destined for a new generation of luxury sedans, but has been repurposed as a symbol for CadillacÂ’s stubborn insistence on doing right by its performance heritage, right up to the end. Yes, the end. The last gasp. The grand finale. Swan song. Farewell tour. Whatever version of finality works best for you, apply it here, because Blackwing represents the gasoline-powered CadillacÂ’s final form. There are two key components to a sport sedan: a kick-ass powertrain and a chassis than can wrangle it. Check and check. A modern and powerful twin-turbo V6 resides under the CT4-V Blackwing's hood, and it rides on the latest and greatest revision of GMÂ’s global Alpha platform, which evolved from the same basic underpinnings of the ATS, CTS and Chevy Camaro. A stretched and widened version is the foundation for the CT5 (look for our review of that car's Blackwing next week). In transitioning from ATS to CT4, Cadillac decided to reposition and price its smallest sedan against EuropeÂ’s subcompacts. In the grand tradition of CadillacÂ’s sporty four-doors, this makes it a size mismatch. ItÂ’s almost as large on the outside as a BMW 3 Series or Mercedes C-Class, rather than the front-wheel-drive based 2 Series Gran Coupe and CLA-Class with which the CT4 nominally competes on price. This generational re-branding also resulted in a new, very different approach to high-performance models wearing the letter V. Before, they represented the pinnacle of their respective nameplates, but now, a -V represents the mid-grade offering. Upgraded certainly (limited-slip rear differential, more power, adaptive suspension) but positioned against AudiÂ’s S and BMWÂ’s M-Sport models. Cadillac even calls it "CT4 V Series" in certain places because the situation wasn't confusing enough. And although there's nothing ambiguous about the Blackwing's position atop the CT4 hierarchy, Cadillac's have-their-cake-and-eat-it-too approach to the CT4Â’s positioning still makes things a little hinky.
Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
