1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan 4-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
For sale is my 1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham with only 104K miles. That is less than 4K a year. Mechanically this Caddy starts right up and drives smooth like a Caddy should. There are no known mechanical issues with this car. Tranny shifts as it should. No noises, no leaks. The exterior of this Caddy is in excellent condition. Not perfect but real nice for an 28 year old. No rust, paint is very good, some small imperfections on close inspection. Chrome is also in very good condition, The roof looks perfect. I am sure you can find some imperfections, but I couldn't see any. Still shines, clean. For a white roof to look this good this Fleetwood had to stored inside all of its life. Some of the fillers will need replaced as you can see in the pictures. The main front and back fillers are in great condition. The small pieces behind the front bumper and the piece under the license plate should be replaced. The glass is all good. Wire wheels look real good, tires still have a lot of tread left. The interior is in very good condition. Look at the pictures. The back seats are in excellent condition. The front seats have no rips or tears. A little wear is showing. Dash has one crack, but overall very nice. The headliner is real nice. The door panels look great. The bells and whistles are all there but will need some attention. I have not tried to diagnose anything. Could be as simple as fuses. The power seat isn't working, power locks are not working, power antenna is not working. It manually will go up and most of the way down. The power windows all seem to be working great. I did have someone look at the AC real quick. It sounds like the compressor is good but the blower motor will need attention. I bought this Caddy in this exact condition last summer. I planned on getting all the little things fixed, but still cruised in it as is. My daughter is getting married later this year and I have to pay for that some how. Unfortunately that means selling off some of my small collection. I will be offering for sale my 1985 Eldo convertible, my 1976 Eldo convertible and my 84 Riv. within the next month. I bought this car from a Cadillac dealer in WV. They claimed they knew the old owner and it was in for service on a regular basis. I never got it PA titled. I have the clear WV title signed and ready to transfer to the next owner. You will not be disappointed with this Caddy. Not perfect but can get real close to perfect with a little TLC. Once again it is a 28 year old car. Sold AS-IS. Please come by and check it out if you are local. The pictures and description are very honest and clear. Please don't bid unless you intend to buy. If you are the winning bidder and come to see it and it is not as described then no obligation to buy. Email with any questions. I am selling it locally also, on Craigslist and elsewhere. I do have a reserve and do not have a buy it now. I will consider offers. Thanks for your consideration.

Steve Carlisle replaces Johan de Nysschen as head of Cadillac
Wed, Apr 18 2018Johan de Nysschen, a longtime automotive industry executive, is out the door at Cadillac after four years at the helm of GM's flagship luxury brand. Steve Carlisle will replace de Nysschen as General Motors senior vice president and president, Cadillac. Carlisle previously served as president and managing director of GM Canada. Travis Hester will replace Carlisle in that role, starting immediately. "We appreciate Johan's efforts over the last four years in setting a stronger foundation for Cadillac," said General Motors President Dan Ammann. That strong foundation is mostly seen overseas. Cadillac has seen record sales in China under de Nysschen's watch, but has continued to flounder in its home market of the United States with market share significantly lower than rival brands like Audi, BMW, Lexus, and Mercedes-Benz. Growth in the U.S. market is mostly happening with crossovers and SUVs, and Cadillac has been trailing its German and Japanese rivals on that front. The brand-new XT4 is seen as a big potential sales booster for the automaker, but its late arrival has already hurt the brand's sales figures here in America. "Looking forward, the world is changing rapidly, and, beginning with the launch of the new XT4, it is paramount that we capitalize immediately on the opportunities that arise from this rate of change," said Ammann. "This move will further accelerate our efforts in that regard." Carlisle will report directly to Ammann in his role as the head of the Cadillac brand. Related Video:
Cadillac Rear Camera Mirror | 2017 Autoblog Technology of the Year Finalist
Wed, Jan 25 2017We give Cadillac a lot of credit for being the first to make good on the promise to replace mirrors with cameras and displays. That was good enough to earn the Cadillac Rear Camera Mirror a place on our 2017 Technology of the Year awards shortlist for new features. The idea behind this system is relatively simple; what perhaps took more doing was getting the regulations in place to allow a video feed to replace the government-mandated mirror. The hardware and that rules compliance starts with what looks like a normal rearview mirror – because it defaults to being a mirror until you switch on the display or in the event the system somehow fails. Flip the little toggle at the bottom of the mirror – the one normally used to switch from day to night mode – and the reflection is replaced by a very crisp feed from a camera at the back of the vehicle. This live stream gives you a wide-angle view of what's behind, without obstruction from back-seat passengers, headrests, or any bodywork. The camera is even shielded from weather and has a coating to shed water. What you see doesn't exactly look like a normal reflection, but the quality is good enough and you see more than you would normally with something aimed through today's small rear windows. But because it isn't actually a reflection, you have to make some adjustments. When your eyes are focused down the road, glancing at a mirror gives you a view the same distance away but in the rear. With the rear camera mirror, a glance back requires your eyes to first refocus on the display, which takes a moment. And unlike a normal mirror, which you look through at an angle, this display is angled toward the driver but projecting an image that looks straight back – no matter how you move it, the image doesn't change like a mirror's would. And because it's an image and not a reflection, you can't choose what's in focus and lose your sense of depth perception. It's not clear whether objects in mirror are closer or farther than they appear. And there are other limitations. For instance, while the display balances bright lights and dark surroundings well at night, it is tricked by LED headlights, which flicker at a rate faster than the camera shoots. The result is a distracting strobe effect like you get when you point a smartphone camera at any LED light source. For those with migraine sensitivity, this kind of fast flashing can cause real problems.
