For sale and for the first time ever on eBay is my sweet 1989 Cadillac Fleetwood Coupe Convertible. This beautiful shiny black car with d'Elegance grey leather interior with only 55, 365 original miles. This Cadillac is a Custom Car Craft (Eisenhardt and Hess) conversion. Original Nevada car with one owner for over 20 years who passed away and left it to his son in Dallas who had it shipped to Texas in 2012. Some service records back to 1992 and all recent work available. Upon arrival in Dallas, the son had a full mechanical inspection and service. The oil, brakes bled, radiator flush, and AC R-134 (ice cold) were serviced at that time and he had the air suspension converted to rear struts and the front end aligned. Since I have owned the Caddy, I have added new Vogue tires with less than 200 miles, fresh wax & detail, state safety inspection, and oil change. This Fleetwood coupe is and ultra rare conversion by Car Craft and this is the Wikipedia entry on custom coach convertibles is below. I have owned many convertibles and this top is by far the finest construction of them all especially when compared to the GM scissors tops of the 70's. Top shows only one blemish which is reflected in the pictures. Otherwise it is clean and tight running down the highway at 75 MPH. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coach_convertible Conversions of GM products It is estimated
a production total near 300 Coupe Devilles
were converted. However, the Fleetwood Coupe is a much more rare and more
desirable collector car and perhaps less than 10 are in existence. The same
basic design was used for model years ’86-91. At that point, it seems
that Car Craft vanished as part of the S+S Coach/Superior Company and they
appeared to focus on limousines and hearses. They are now part of the
Accubuilt Company. Cadillac Seville (1st Gen) Milan Coachbuilders (1976–1979), Coach

It's suspension is a little firmer than stock, but it still floats down the road like a dream. No squeaks, rattles or smells. There are some very minor imperfections in the paint like small scratches and chips, buy they are barely noticeable. You have to really look close to see them. I urge you to have the car inspected prior to purchase at your own expense and I will assist in making the car available. Here is a list of the following features:
I have a lot of money in this car and don't have to sell it, but I want a new Corvette so I am willing to part with the Caddy for the right price. I will ship overseas and assist with shipping internationally. Bank wire transfer with confirmed deposit is the only way I will do a transaction not local to Dallas, TX. I feel I have described this Cadillac accurately and the next owner will be proud to be the owner and take it to shows or just drive for fun. I will answer any emails to the best of my ability and will take phone calls if you email me your number. Lastly, I've sold a few cars on eBay so I know how it works and will not tolerate scammers and they will be reported. My name is Sean and I look forward to speaking to you about the car.

Cadillac exec realizes ELR pricing was stupid high
Thu, May 14 2015At least one Cadillac exec has finally started to come to terms with something we knew all along: the initial $75,000 price for the ELR plug-in hybrid was way too high. The bad decision in part led to the model selling just over 1,000 units last year. Company marketing boss Uwe Ellinghaus recently gave an interview to Bloomberg where he discussed what went wrong. "The MSRP was, indeed, a mouthful," Ellinghaus said to Bloomberg. "We overestimated that customers would realize our competitors were naked at that price." People balked at the ELR's price from the very start, and dealers were receiving $5,000 at one point just for getting customers to test drive the PHEV. Later, some incentives for buyers were as high as $14,000. Cadillac planners saw a conundrum when it came to the ELR's price. Too low of a figure was thought to bring the model close to the Chevrolet Volt, and $75,000 was also believed to signal Caddy's PHEV as something special. "We just wanted to make this a statement for the brand of how progressive we are," Ellinghaus said to Bloomberg. Cadillac is now working to rehabilitate the ELR's reputation with a host of updates for 2016. Buyers get a 25-percent boost in powertrain output, additional standard features, and the whole package comes with a $9,000 drop in price. The tweaks should help the luxurious PHEV make a better second impression. Related Video:
Cadillac plans to keep its Manhattan ZIP code, shunning Detroit
Thu, Jun 7 2018Johan de Nysschen is credited for separating Cadillac from the GM nest in Detroit, but despite his ouster earlier this year, the luxury division says it will remain headquartered in New York City's tony SoHo district. "It's 100 percent that we're staying here, that was never a question," Cadillac spokesman Andrew Lipman told the Detroit Free Press. Cadillac in April announced that it was replacing de Nysschen, after four years running the flagship brand. The new brand boss, Steve Carlisle, previously was president and managing director of GM Canada. De Nysschen led a big push to separate the luxury brand from its parent company as a separate business unit, announcing the move to New York in 2014 as a way to gain more autonomy and better tap into the global luxury zeitgeist. The move was controversial at the time in some quarters, though Lipman told the Freep that GM brass made the decision to relocate Cadillac to the Big Apple months before de Nysschen arrived at the company. Cadillac now occupies the 15th and 16th floors of a high-rise building on Hudson Street in SoHo, where it has between 140 and 150 employees. It also operates a ground-floor retail space called the Cadillac House where it displays cars, operates a coffee shop and stages events, including with fashion designers. Its vehicles are still designed and engineered back in the Detroit area, however. "The amount of time people spend at Cadillac House has been increasing, and it's become a destination," Lipman said. Cadillac used this year's New York Auto Show to reveal its new 2019 XT4 compact crossover, its second offering in the all-important luxury crossover segment after the XT5. It goes on sale this fall.

Cadillac CTS-V spotted with big exhaust, new grille?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014If you thought Cadillac was content to leave its twin-turbocharged Vsport as the range-topping CTS, think again. Behold, our first good glimpse at the next-generation Cadillac CTS-V sedan, sporting more aggressive styling (somewhere under there), meaty quad-exhaust pipes, and what very well could be a new face for the V-badged Caddies.
Creating an all-new grille design seems like an awful lot of work just for a prototype, so it's very possible that the vertical-bar treatment you see here could make its way into production. Our spy photographers have pointed out that they've seen this same sort of grille treatment on prototypes for the smaller ATS-V sedan, and we've heard V-series models may soon have greater differentiation from the standard vehicles that sired them - that seems especially necessary if Cadillac insists on expanding this whole Vsport range.
Regardless of how its front end looks, the CTS-V ought to be a real monster. Industry sources say we can expect to see a supercharged version of General Motors' 6.2-liter V8 under the Caddy's hood, and considering the current car already makes 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque, we wouldn't be surprised to see a decent increase in both of those numbers. After all, one of the CTS-V's main competitors, the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, is currently putting out 550 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Could this mean a 600-hp Cadillac is on the horizon?
