1988 Cadillac Seville 67,000 Miles Continental Kit on 2040-cars

Year:1988 Mileage:67000
Location:

Henderson, Nevada, United States

Henderson, Nevada, United States

HI  I AM SELLING WHAT WAS MY DAD'S 1988 CADILLAC SEVILLE.  IT RUNS GREAT, AIR IS ICE COLD, TIRES AREN'T NEW, BUT VERY NICE.  MY DAD PASSED AWAY IN 2010, & HE GAVE ME THE CAR BEFORE HE DIED.  I'VE BEEN IN CARS ALL MY LIFE. MY WIFE & I CURRENTLY LIVE IN WISCONSIN. FOUR YEARS AGO, I HAD THE CAR DRIVEN OUT TO OUR HOUSE IN HENDERSON, NEVADA SO WE WOULD HAVE A CAR TO USE WHEN WE WOULD FLY OUT THERE. 

BEFORE WE GO ANY FARTHER, I HAVE A $6500 APPRAISAL ON THE CAR, & MY RESERVE IS $2500.  I HAVE TO SELL THE CAR.  WE ARE PLANNING TO MOVE TO NEVADA, & I AM HAVING 2 OF MY NEWER CARS DRIVEN OUT THERE.  I'D LIKE TO KEEP THIS ONE, BUT I DO NOT HAVE ROOM FOR IT. THAT IS WHY I'M SELLING IT. AS YOU CAN SEE, I'VE BEEN IN CARS ALL MY LIFE.  I AM NOW 66.  THIS WOULD BE A NICE CLASSIC TO KEEP. SHE IS A LOOKER. THIS IS A CAR, YOU'LL BE PROUD TO DRIVE. I HAVE A 4 CAR GARAGE HERE IN WI, IF I HAD IT IN NEVADA, THIS WOULD BE A KEEPER.

I'VE ONLY DRIVEN THE CAR MAYBE 8 DAY'S A YEAR, OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS.  UNFORTUNATELY, FROM SITTING, THE CAR HAS DEVELOPED SOME LIFTER NOISE.  IT RUNS GREAT, THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS.  I HAD A NEW ALTERNATOR PUT ON $350.  I HAD NEW HYDRAULIC BOOST PUT ON $1300. I HAD A BRAND NEW WINSHIELD PUT IN BECAUSE OF A CRACK.  I FOUND 4 NOS WHEEL CENTERS AT A DEALERSHIP FOR $105 EACH.  THE CONTINENAL KIT WAS $1000. THE CAR HAS THE GOLD PACKAGE, (GOLD GRILL & EMBLEMS).

IF YOU BUY THIS CAR, YOU WILL HAVE TO PICK IT UP, OR HAVE IT PICKED UP AT MY HOME IN HENDERSON, NEVADA BETWEEN JUNE 24TH & JULY 7TH.  I AM FLYING OUT THERE JUNE 23RD, & WILL ASSIST WITH THE PICK UP FOR THE BUYER.

THIS IS A GOOD DEAL, & A NICE CAR FOR SOMEONE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU CAN GET THE LIFTER NOISE FIXED.  THE ONLY OTHER THING I WILL MENTION IS THIS CAR HAS ROUGHLY 67,000 MILES ON IT.  FROM WHAT I COULD LEARN, 1 OF THE MILEAGE MODULES NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS AN ERROR MESSAGE.  CADILLACS NEVER LOSE THE MILEAGE. AS SOON AS IT'S FIXED, THE EXACT MILEAGE WILL COME BACK. THIS ERROR MESSAGE CAME ON AT 64,000, RIGHT WHEN I GOT THE CAR. I AM INCLUDING A PICTURE OF THE TITLE SHOWING ACTUAL MILEAGE.  I'VE NEVER BOTHERED TO TAKE THE TIME TO FIX IT. I HAD NO PLANS TO SELL THE CAR, SO IT WAS NO BIG DEAL TO ME. WHEN I GOT THE CAR, THERE WERE 64,000 MILES ON THE CAR.  I HAD THE CAR DRIVEN TO HENDERSON, NV, WHICH IS 1800 MILES, & I DON'T BELIEVE I'VE PUT ON 1000 MILES IN THE LAST 4 YEARS. WE DROVE IT BACK & FORTH TO THE STRIP, WHICH IS 9 MILES FROM OUR HOUSE. THERE COULD BE 66,000+ MILES ON IT. 

THERE ARE A FEW BEAUTY MARKS, BUT AS THE SONG SAY'S, "TOO FEW TO MENTION".  THE INTERIOR IS USED, BUT STILL NICE.  MY DAD NEVER DROVE THIS CAR IN THE WINTER. FROM 1996 TO 2009 WHEN I GOT IT, HE PUT 14,000 MILES ON IT. IT'S A NICE CAR, NOT PERFECT, BUT PRETTY NICE. I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL ON THIS DEAL. IF YOU PAY BY CASHIERS CHECK, CHECK MUST CLEAR BEFORE CAR IS PICKED UP. THESE DAY'S IT TAKES 7-10 DAY'S FOR A CASHIERS CHECK TO CLEAR THE BANK.

TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THIS CAR. IT'S WORTH TWICE WHAT I'M ASKING. I HAVE TO SELL. I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THE LETTERS OFF THE BACK, BUT I'LL LEAVE THAT UP TO THE BUYER. THIS IS A NICE CLASSIC CADILLAC. IT TURNS HEADS. WE GET A LOT OF THUMBS UP AS WE DRIVE. TAKE A GOOD LOOK.  MY NAME IS TOM.  YOU CAN CALL ANYTIME AT 920 923-5291.  I'LL ANSWER ANY & ALL QUESTIONS.   THANKS!!   GOOD LUCK!!

A few signs that Cadillac's revival is taking hold

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Only a flatworm would not have predicted the Cadillac ATS would help increase sales for America's erstwhile luxury brand of record; however, even the best automotive oracles didn't realize by how much: The ATS fueled a 49-percent increase of the brand's year-on-year sales in March, the sixth straight month of growth for Cadillac. The momentum helped push General Motors to post a 6.4-increase in sales in March versus 2012, leading its domestic competitors.
Dealership salesmen are among the first to register the shift occurring at Cadillac. A Texas dealer related an incident in which he helped a mother affix a baby seat in a car for a test drive, explaining that as opposed to the older buyers that are still a Cadillac mainstay he's getting "a pretty diverse group that's coming through the door now" who are "younger and better educated." Aided by incentives on the ATS, Cadillac's sales are up 38 percent so far this year, overtaking Acura as the fourth best selling luxury brand, and GM stock is benefiting with incremental gains because of it. Based on early response, the new 2014 Cadillac CTS should keep things going in the same direction.
The trend at the Wreath and Crest is part of a larger sales trend happening among domestics - with other models like the Dodge Dart and Ford Fusion doing well - and overall US car sales. Head over to Bloomberg for the big picture and role the ATS plays in it.

Cadillac XTS to become Opel flagship sedan?

Tue, 24 Jul 2012

According to Auto-News.de, Opel is considering using Cadillac's all-new big sedan, the XTS, as the base for its new flagship car, which would likely carry the name Omega.
WorldCarFans.com speculates that Opel could use GM's 3.6-liter direct-injection V6 that generates 304 horsepower or, possibly, a 2.8-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that creates 321 horsepower to power the vehicle. The European automaker could even use a 195-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine in this application - fine, since many of Europe's largest sedans are powered by smaller, more efficient engines.
Regardless of power, the Omega could arrive at dealerships by the end of 2013.

2014 Cadillac ELR whirs into Jay Leno's Garage

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

While Jerry Seinfeld was gallivanting around LA with Sarah Silverman in a Jaguar XKE, our favorite car-loving comedian, Jay Leno, was checking out the all-new 2014 Cadillac ELR. Set to go on sale later this year, Cadillac brought its ELR to Jay Leno's Garage to show off some of its styling and technology as well as give Leno some seat time in the range-extended EV. Leno owns both a Volt and a CTS-V, and the ELR is a kind combination of the two (sort of).
In this episode, Leno spends some time talking to Frank Saucedo, GM director of advanced design, and ELR chief engineer Chris Thomason before logging a few miles on the sleek coupe. Interestingly, it seems that GM has definitely changed its tune a little since the introduction of the Volt a couple years ago; Saucedo and Leno both refer to the ELR as a hybrid, and Thomason says that it gets the "bulk of its propulsion" from the electric motors. Whatever you want to call it, scroll down to watch the latest episode of JLG with some great information and driving shots of the plug-in Cadillac.
