1987 Cadillac Brougham D'elegance on 2040-cars
Seattle, Washington, United States
|
Sudden financial challenges are causing me to sell my two Cadillacs (1987 and 1956) This 1987 car is very unusual in terms of its options: in addition to all the regular accessories that were standard on this model, it has a factory sunroof which works perfectly, it has a driver's memory seat, it has auto dimming lights as well as twilight sentinel, it has an engine block heater, a power rearview mirror that works properly, and it has the velour seats instead of leather. The fabric used on these seats is so amazing. It shows almost no wear after all these years. It is unbelievably comfortable and never hot or cold. This 1987 Brougham d'Elegance is my daily driver. I am retired so the use is not all that much. I also have been using this car in my volunteer work as a chauffeur for the Seattle Opera, giving rides to visiting artists. I truly love this car and enjoy driving it. I did not intend on using it on a daily basis, but once I experienced the quietness, the smoothness, and the excellent handling characteristics of this car I was unable to be satisfied with anything less. Most people are amazed by the beauty of this car, particularly the interior which is so plush and inviting and comfortable. As with any car I own, I keep this car in top shape at all times. At this moment there are no issues at all. The tires still have about a third of their life left, the brakes are wonderful, and everything functions properly. When I got this car about five years ago, I had a new AC compressor installed, had the front end checked over and adjusted. I also bought the Kumho tires which are really terrific for this car. In addition, I have had a new exhaust installed which uses a free-flowing muffler and no resonator. So the car has a nice engine sound and the engine runs just a bit more freely this way. It is well known that this 5.0 liter engine is reliable but not all that powerful for such a large car. I have done my best to keep it super tuned up, free-flowing in terms of the air cleaner and muffler, etc. It really does run great and I am satisfied with the power. I have also had the transmission serviced and examined as a precautionary step. Nothing was wrong with it. If I were asked to fault this car, I would probably say that the white paint is a bit past its prime, but no one would notice that except a critical viewer, because it looks just fine. It has its share of little touch-up and imperfections, and there is one very small indentation over the rear wheel on the passenger's side. A long time ago, someone must have smoked in this car because there are some tiny little empty spots on the driver's door upholstery, where ashes must have fallen and caused holes. The car has no tobacco smell as I do not smoke and I do not allow smoking in any of my cars. Plus the car has been detailed countless times in the interim. The speedometer of my car is in Kilometers. But I have listed the equivalent miles. This car has been trouble-free during the time I have owned it. I needed a new heater core last year, and I believe that has been my only expense in five years time. |

Cadillac reveals more 2015 Escalade details, launches colorizer
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Cadillac has opened up a mini-site to entice you into its all-new 2015 Escalade, and begun talking about more of its features and trim levels. While all versions of the new daddy Caddy will be powered by a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque routed through a six-speed automatic, there will be three trim packages you can wrap around that powertrain and seven exterior colors available to make it pop.
Features common to all trims include leather throughout, heated and cooled front seats, a 12-inch reconfigurable dash cluster, a quieter interior thanks to Bose active noise cancellation and the brand's love/hate CUE infotainment system. The base trim comes with adaptive remote start, hands-free tailgate, rear-view camera, park assist, Magnetic Ride Control and sits on 20-inch wheels. Moving up to the Luxury spec increases your stature with 22-inch wheels and adds a reconfigurable, color head-up display, a sunroof, power fold-and-tumble second row seating, Intellibeam headlights and a Driver Awareness Package with active crash-avoidance technology like Safety Alert Seat, lane departure warning and forward collision alert.
The top Premium trim gets a Driver Assist Package that includes Automatic Collision Preparation, automatic braking and adaptive cruise control, rear-seat entertainment, along with exterior touches like illuminated door handles.
