Up for auction today is a beautiful First Generation 1976 Cadillac Seville. I drive it nearly every day and it drives like a dream.  I get all kinds of thumbs up and different gestures wherever I go with it.  I am proud to drive it, and I might add that it is a pleasure to drive.  It is a beautiful metallic silver with a matching gray vinyl padded top.  The gray leather interior is supple and there are no rips or tears.  Just the usual minor wear from age.  It is the most comfortable car you can imagine.  I will repeat the flaws in this car as I have already recorded elsewhere in this description. 

There is a small amount of surface rust where top meet trunk below the rear window as well as one tiny spot of rust on the very front bottom of the drivers side front fender.  The power antenna does not go all the way up but the AM/FM stereo sounds fine. Also the clock does not work as most of them dont and there are a couple of cracks in the top of the dash which is very common in these cars. All windows go up and down properly as well as the power seats.  The main lock switch will open all four doors but for some reason it will not lock the passenger side doors. They do work but just will not lock from the drivers door, but as I stated earlier it will open all four doors. Also, there is a small minor leak in the power steering pump.  It really leaks slowly.  Not a bad drip, but something I want potential buyers to be aware of. Also, there is a scratch in the passenger rear door. 

The odometer reads just under 102,000.  I hate to see it go but I have to do a lot of traveling and it will spoil the good in it to leave it out and put all of the miles on it.  Plus I need something with a 4 or 6 cylinder that is gets better mileage.  The mid 70's full size luxury cars weren't really made with fuel economy in mind.  This car is a true survivor and could be completely restored or used as a daily driver.  If I were keep it I would address the minor rust issues and have it repainted probably in a water based enamel.  I'm quite sure that you could obtain the original color.  I am pricing it with that in mind.  

It also has the original manual in its plastic case and the carpeting in the trunk.   No floor or trunk rust issues.  

If you have any questions, please don'ghesitate to ask.  I am pricing this car to sell, and it will be well worth the low reserve that I am placing on it.  This is sold as is, where is.  Shipping is the buyers responsibility, but I will do everything that I can from this end to make sure that things go smoothly.

Cadillac Lyriq EV debut delayed by Covid-19 virus

Tue, Mar 10 2020

The, coronavirus, otherwise dubbed Covid-19, has claimed another large gathering. General Motors canceled the public debut of its coming Cadillac Lyriq crossover, planned for April 2 in Los Angeles, due to fears over the continued spread of the virus. With more than 14 confirmed cases of residents with Covid-19, Los Angeles declared a state of emergency last week. Michael Albano, a communications director at GM, said in an e-mail to The Verge that "Our top priority is the safety of our media guests and employees." At the time of writing there's no word on a potential new date for the reveal for the highly anticipated crossover that GM just announced last week at a private event in Warren, Michigan. However, the automaker provided Autoblog with a statement that read, in part, "Please know we are working to reschedule the reveal as soon as possible." What we know about the Lyriq is just as compelling as what we don't know. There XT5-sized people hauler will be out to dazzle in every way, with a ton of weight on its shoulders — many will be judging GM's and Cadillac's past and claimed preparedness for the future based on this one offering. The Lyriq will be the first GM EV to sit on a new EV architecture the engineers call BEV3 and the marketers call Ultium, with battery capacities up to 200 kWh and a potential range of 400 miles. Speaking of which, GM just applied to trademark the term Tecra with the US Patent and Trademark Office, so we could be in for more information on innovative battery systems in the not-too-distant future. The automaker could forgo a public debut for the time being and opt to livestream the event. Or, who knows, it's possible the Detroit Auto Show just garnered itself a whopping debut for the show's debut event in June; the first rendering of the Lyriq aired at last year's Detroit show.

How GM's grueling 24-hour test gets the kinks out of its performance cars

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

One of the biggest challenges automakers face when designing a high-performance car is making sure that it is both fast and reliable. For General Motors, any car that might be taken to the track by its owner - like the Corvette, Camaro Z/28 (shown above) and the Cadillac CTS-V, for example - undergoes a rigorous and strenuous 24-hour test by engineers at the Milford Proving Grounds, as pointed out by Car and Driver.
We've posted on this topic in the past - on a video showing the Camaro ZL1 being brutalized, for instance - but this article gives a more in-depth look at what actually happens behind the scenes... including what that poor ZL1 went through. Though the test isn't for 24 hours straight, the cars are pushed as hard as possible by some of GM's best drivers with only the brakes and tires replaced frequently.
We don't want to ruin the fun for you, but it is an interesting article that tells just some of what GM does to develop its sports cars. Check out the full article over at Car and Driver for the rest of the story.
