I'm here listing my 97 Cadillac DeVille, that I recently acquired. More than I'd care to deal with right now, being a full time college student.


The good:

1) Starts and drives well. All the lights light up, inside and out.

3) The car has power EVERYTHING. Mirrors, windows (all the windows go up and down with no problem including the sun roof), locks (remote entry), seat (both seats move forward and back, up and down just the way they should), radio works, 6 disk cd player (I'm sure it works, but no way to tell for sure, no cartridge in it).

2) The exterior of the vehicle is in good condition (it just needs a good scrubbing), few dings and dents but it is a 16 year old car, what do you expect? Inside the car is okay, black leather a little worn, but again good for it's age.

3) Since purchasing the car I've had the radiator, thermostat, oil switch, and serpentine belt tensioner replaced. Also it has had an oil change and a coolant system flush (I have all the shop receipts for the repairs).

The bad:

1) Car could use a new set of brake pads, not a big deal (rotors are still good, had them inspected and have the paper work to prove it).

2) The odometer needs to be replaced as well as the glove box latch (the parts can be easily acquired through eBay, and wouldn't be difficult to install). The air bag, oil pressure, check engine, etc still work, but no speed or milage info is displayed. The side areas that track MPG and the temp control displays work. (The car was last registered in 2012 and registered with 90,000 miles).

3) The A/C works great, nice and cold, but only blows from the defroster panel (I live in Arizona, it seriously cools the car just fine).

4) Lastly, the car overheats after driving about ten or fifteen miles. I've had a shop look into it and they don't know what the problem is. They said it may be the head gasket, but the don't know for sure. (The first time they did a block test it was fine, and the second time the test was "inconclusive").


With a little love this car would could be great again, and if not it could be easily used as a parts car since everything is mostly in good condition.

Fell free to ask any questions, I'll answer as quickly as possible.

*Car is sold as is, buyer IS responsible for pick up, and don't bid if you don't plan to pay.

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

One 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.

Cadillac launching crossover-heavy product offensive

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Utilizing information provided by Cadillac suppliers, Reuters says that Cadillac is preparing two more crossovers that will bow after its current product initiative is complete. According to the report, a year after the next SRX arrives in 2016, a pair of CUVs will be unveiled that will bracket it in size, and they'll be headed for the US and Chinese markets.
That is years away, though. For now, the company's attentions are on the nearly here CTS and ELR range-extended coupe, the next Escalade SUV (shown above), an ATS coupe, and the range-topper that will sit above the XTS. That, and possibly an even more impressive range-topper that promises to be the mean and majestic super-luxe unicorn Cadillac we've been dreaming about for more than a decade now.
In response to the issue of how German crossovers might be having an impact on Cadillac's future plans, a company source said - rightly, we think - "we don't need to duplicate the Germans." That doesn't mean, however, that it can't wade deeper into a market segment that the Germans are making a ton of money in. In fact, and since everyone is doing it, we'd be surprised if Cadillac didn't, even if it won't happen for another four years.
