1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Saint Petersburg, Florida, United States
|
The Last Great Cadillac... I bought this gorgeous '96 Fleetwood in 2005 and would keep it forever if my wife would let me. But the family comes first, so it's time to get rid of "the other woman". This sweet lady has been my light daily driver to the office and back. Engine is solid, A/C blows ice cold, tires have meat... I would hop in this car and drive across country tomorrow without thinking twice. She's led a privileged life, built in Texas and shipped to Florida... never seen a salt road in her life. Two owners before me both kept her tucked in the garage and her read fairy tales before bed every night. I didn't have a garage when I bought her, but I've kept the car clean and protected best I could. Only blemishes are a crack in the dashboard (hidden under cloth cover and some fixable exterior trim issues) Here's a list of everything that's with her... - Runs excellent (glides down the highway and that 5.7 liter V8 jumps to life when you stab the gas pedal) - Superior comfort (like driving to work in a leather recliner) - Huge interior (Roomy enough for 5 long-legged adults to sit comfortably in style) - Clean paint and leather (no chips and zero rust, the paint still shines like new. Vinyl roof cover sparkles white with a squirt of X-14, chrome sparkles) - Ice cold air (I replaced the compressor a couple of months ago and even the Florida summer is no match for the Arctic blast blasting through her vents) - Good tires (they both have plenty of tread, but the thickness of the whitewalls are mismatched because I couldn't find Broadway whitewalls to replace the fronts) - Tinted glass (about 60%) - Superior sound system with CD and cassette, (so you can rock those mix tapes you knew you were hanging onto for some reason) - Turn signal indicators on hood (that's just cool! and they still light up with every "tick, tick, tick.") - Mechanically maintained with love (this is my daily driver for 8 years so she's had no mechanical downtime. If it breaks I bring it to my Cadi-loving mechanic and get it repaired right. They'll have a list of repairs done over the years.) Over the years I've let some little stuff slip. Here's the list of what's "wrong" with her... - Back windows slipped off the track so I don't use them. Which is fine (both fronts operate fine) but recently the back window on the driver's side slips down when you drive. - Trim around vinyl popped off in the car wash, but I have the pieces in the trunk (just need the clips) - Wreath around trunk emblem came off (I have that, too - just needs glue) - Chrome trim is loose on one side (it won't fall off, but I wouldn't take it through a car wash before getting new clips) - Antennae motor died (another reason to wash her by hand - the way she deserves) - Fuse panel cover won't stay on (no idea why. Try velcro maybe?) I think that's about it. Give her a good home and she'll treat you right. |

2016 Cadillac ATS-V brandishes 450 horses and 6-speed manual
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Details about the hotly anticipated 2016 Cadillac ATS-V are tumbling out, and they look to be everything we could ask for in a high-performance Caddy coupe.
According to Road & Track, the ATS-V will use a version of the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 from the CTS Vsport, but the wick will be turned up to 450 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. In glorious news for driving enthusiasts everywhere, that potent mill will be available with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic.
According to R&T, the engine has a heap of high-performance tech to let it make the extra ponies, including titanium connecting rods, two water-to-air intercoolers, titanium turbines for the turbos and an additional radiator dedicated to cooling the gearbox and electronically locking differential. Keeping it all planted are a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, and a suspension with 50 percent more roll stiffness.
2021 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing spied up close, showing off bronze wheels
Wed, Jun 17 2020Here is yet another closer look at the upcoming Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing sedan. Some pertinent details have been flying around this one for a while now. A photo of the interior showing a manual transmission is the latest leak, and it’s also one of the most exciting. Reports have also shone light on the engine: ItÂ’s supposed to be getting an updated version of GMÂ’s 6.2-liter supercharged V8. There will be no shortage of horsepower and torque. These latest spy shots reveal a couple of other new developments. For one, we get a really great look at the wheel and tire package on the car. Those dark bronze wheels are new, and they sure do look like production-style wheels to us. If anything, they remind us of the Brass Monkey wheel color found on Challengers and Chargers. Wide Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires wrap those wheels. It gets 305-section-width tires in back and 275-section-width rubber in front. The wide, staggered setup is no surprise considering that this car will very likely put out more than 640 horsepower. ThereÂ’s a great deal of camouflage missing from the car as a whole, too. The hood is out in the open, and the same goes for the upper portions of the doors. ThatÂ’s because those parts of the car are virtually identical to the regular CT5-V. Sorry, no massive hood scoop on this sedan. The front grilleÂ’s lower opening does look significantly taller on this car, though. And where the standard CT5 has covered up fake vents, this car appears to have real, open venting. All the lighting is the same, but the maw of the CT5-V Blackwing is definitely much more aggressive than the standard CT5-V. Cadillac hasnÂ’t provided us with a date on when the new CT5-V Blackwing will be revealed, but has assured us that itÂ’s coming soon. We expect its little sibling, the CT4-V Blackwing, will debut right alongside this one. Related video:
2014 Cadillac ELR
Mon, 29 Sep 2014Well, this is awkward.
A few years ago, Audi Of America's boss Johan de Nysschen went on record describing the Chevrolet Volt as "a car for idiots." Fast-forward to earlier this summer, and the well-regarded executive suddenly found himself in a new office with new business cards bearing the title: President, Cadillac. That means that among other challenges, de Nysschen is now tasked with selling the ELR, a car that is, at its core, a Volt in a sportier, less utile frock wearing a price tag that's twice as expensive.
Frankly, it's not a prospect we imagine the South African executive and recent Infiniti boss relishes. Just about nobody is buying the ELR - Cadillac has sold but 774 examples of its plug-in hybrid coupe this year and it presently has an almost a 200-day supply according to Automotive News. What's more, those numbers actually represent big improvements over just a few months ago, before GM started heaping on the incentives. The cynic in us says that the bad news for De Nysschen is that he's got a borderline sales-proof car in his new corporate garage. The good news? Cadillac customers apparently aren't idiots.
