Up for auction today is a beautiful First Generation 1976 Cadillac Seville. I drive it nearly every day and it drives like a dream. I get all kinds of thumbs up and different gestures wherever I go with it. I am proud to drive it, and I might add that it is a pleasure to drive. It is a beautiful metallic silver with a matching gray vinyl padded top. The gray leather interior is supple and there are no rips or tears. Just the usual minor wear from age. It is the most comfortable car you can imagine. I will repeat the flaws in this car as I have already recorded elsewhere in this description.

There is a small amount of surface rust where top meet trunk below the rear window as well as one tiny spot of rust on the very front bottom of the drivers side front fender. The power antenna does not go all the way up but the AM/FM stereo sounds fine. Also the clock does not work as most of them dont and there are a couple of cracks in the top of the dash which is very common in these cars. All windows go up and down properly as well as the power seats. The main lock switch will open all four doors but for some reason it will not lock the passenger side doors. They do work but just will not lock from the drivers door, but as I stated earlier it will open all four doors. Also, there is a small minor leak in the power steering pump. It really leaks slowly. Not a bad drip, but something I want potential buyers to be aware of. Also, there is a scratch in the passenger rear door.

The odometer reads just under 102,000. I hate to see it go but I have to do a lot of traveling and it will spoil the good in it to leave it out and put all of the miles on it. Plus I need something with a 4 or 6 cylinder that is gets better mileage. The mid 70's full size luxury cars weren't really made with fuel economy in mind. This car is a true survivor and could be completely restored or used as a daily driver. If I were keep it I would address the minor rust issues and have it repainted probably in a water based enamel. I'm quite sure that you could obtain the original color. I am pricing it with that in mind.

It also has the original manual in its plastic case and the carpeting in the trunk. No floor or trunk rust issues.

If you have any questions, please don'ghesitate to ask. I am pricing this car to sell, and it will be well worth the low reserve that I am placing on it. This is sold as is, where is. Shipping is the buyers responsibility, but I will do everything that I can from this end to make sure that things go smoothly.

de Nysschen pushes to separate Cadillac, GM

Wed, Aug 12 2015

Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen continues his push to separate his brand from General Motors. After controversially picking up shop and moving to New York's trendy SoHo neighborhood, de Nysschen has now gone on record as saying that within two years, the brand will enjoy "a far higher degree of autonomy and self sufficiency." That autonomy will include the brand reporting its own financial results, independent of GM. But what would such a move do for Cadillac? Well, as de Nysschen explained it to Automotive News, "Cadillac at this state makes a very sizeable contribution to the overall profit at General Motors." If that's truly the case, separating financial announcements serves to emphasize the prosperous character de Nysschen seems so keen on attaching to his brand. But that's only one phase of Cadillac's push to distance itself from GM. De Nysschen is eager to revamp the company's dealership model so that it stands out from other GM brands, calling it a "very profound focus." Those moves, according to AN, including a change to the current dealer incentive model with a particular emphasis on building the brand rather than nailing sales figures. "If you aren't strengthening the brand perception, you should have less reward," de Nysschen told AN. While his goals seem clear, de Nysschen's statements have left us wondering whether they're also somewhat counterintuitive. Emphasizing Caddy's prosperity to potential consumers while incentivizing dealers to move less metal seems more like a tactical move rather than a strategic one. And there's no telling how the new dealership model will impact de Nysschen's goal to hit 500,000 global sales by 2020. Related Video:

Cadillac Escala Concept shows off a softer side of American luxury

Fri, Aug 19 2016

When Cadillac announced that it would be appearing at Monterey Car Week with a stunning, new concept, the news sent a rush of blood to the head. Would it be a CT6 Coupe? A new V-series model? A follow-up to the show-stopping Elmiraj? Tonight, at the beginning of a weekend of festivities to tantalize automotive enthusiasts and aficionados, Cadillac instead showed off a glimpse of reality: the Escala four-door coupe concept. It wasn't behind a flat-white background, but at a futuristic yet modern home nestled in the hills that Cadillac president Johan De Nysschen introduced the Escala as a "point of inflection" for the brand. Keen observers will note that "Escala" is nearly "Escalade," but any similarity between the two vehicles ends there. De Nysschen noted that the four-door is meant to "relentlessly drive this brand back to its place at the pinnacle of premium." "Nothing less will do," de Nysschen said. The Escala is neither as bold as some recent Cadillacs to take the stage, nor as brash. From a distance, it has a wide, muscular stance wrapped in a tailored suit. Up close, it almost resembles a four-door Camaro — perhaps a nod to the work of former Holden design chief and incoming General Motors director of design, Michael Simcoe. De Nysschen described the Escala project as an "opportunity for designers to flex their creative muscle." The Escala seems to have a footprint mirroring that of a Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, but it feels wider and smaller at the same time. Is the shape derivative? Perhaps, but the Escala's design is less a reflection of a future, incognito Cadillac, and more of a chance for the brand to show off the details that might soon become icons. The Escala's shape may not be earth-shatteringly different, but the truth is in its details. The mirrors are as thin as designer spectacles. The C-pillar offers an opportunity to show off Cadillac's latest take on the Hoffmeister kink. A glass roof adds visual airiness. And a simple "GM DESIGN" badge sits below the side doors, in deference to the stylists who labored to make the Escala different. The most defining element of the concept is the way it utilizes light. There isn't anything blinding about its lighting, but that means you can focus on the shape and appreciate the ambience. The depth of the LED tail lights adds visual length to the Escala and shows where Cadillac's designers placed the most importance. It's contrast and beauty at once.
