1998 Cadillac Deville D'elegance Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars

Stuttgart, Arkansas, United States

This 1998 Cadillac DeVille D'Elegance is from the estate of a lifelong friend who passed away in January 2014.  Purchased brand new in late 1997 from the local Cadillac dealer, this one-owner beauty has been meticulously maintained by the same owner and same dealer since new.  It is a non-smoker car that has been garage kept its entire life, and it shows.  When I pulled it out of the garage, I rinsed the light dust off of it and that's all I did.  She was so particular about her car that she has rubber mats over the carpeted mats.  The interior is immaculate.  Close inspection shows some very slight wear on the driver's seat bolsters (outside edge) from getting in and out, but you've got to look close.  There is no interior odor and, again, I didn't touch the interior prior to taking the photos.  

On the outside, it's unbelievable for a '98 model car.  There are a few slight pecks and dings, but hardly noticeable.  That's the beauty of a White car.  Curiously, the thin bright silver trim that circles the car within the side molding has some spots on some of the pieces, most noticeable on the left rear door, but I really don't think it's a distraction to the otherwise stunning appearance.  The Michelin tires look nearly brand new and the thin White stripe really sets off the dazzling chrome aluminum wheels.  Unlike the faux chrome wheels that automakers use today, these are genuine chromed aluminum wheels, exclusive to the d'Elegance model, and none have any curb damage.

Mechanically, it starts and runs perfectly.  The battery looks fairly new, but I can't be sure how old it is.  I only drove it a few miles, but checked everything out that I could.  The HVAC system operates great, all of the instrumentation is bright and functioning properly, the radio and CD player sound beautiful.  I didn't have a cassette to try, however, but would guess it works fine, too.  The d'Elegance model has rear seat sun visors and I did notice that the vanity mirror light didn't work on the left rear one.

There could be other things wrong with the car, as would be the case with any used vehicle, but you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer 1998 model car of any description, in my opinion.  Automakers don't make roomy, great riding, comfortable cars like these anymore.  For the money, this is a lot of car!

Of course, it is being sold As Is, Without Warranty.  Buyer assumes all risks.  It is impossible to know everything about a used car, or what might happen to it in the future, but from what I know about this one, who owned it, and how it was taken care of, I would not hesitate to load my family in it and go anywhere.

You are welcome to have it inspected by anyone you choose.  It has a clear, open title.  The title shows the previous title number to be the MSO.  The title was issued on 12/04/1997 and it had 89 miles on the odometer.  It has all of the original owner's manuals and glove box materials.  It has the two original ignition keys (one gold) with built in chip and several door keys (one gold).  It has one remote fob, and it works fine (the family could only find one fob).

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.  I would like to be paid within 3 days of auction close.   Cash,  cashiers check or wire transfer preferred.  Buyer is responsible to pick up the car.  It is located in Stuttgart, Arkansas 72160.

Thanks so much for looking!

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe configurator is ready to get personal

Wed, 17 Sep 2014

If you are in the market for a luxury coupe but would prefer it to be American, then you are in luck because the configurator for the 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe is now online.
Prices for the Cadillac start at $38,990 (including the $995 destination fee) for the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 272 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, or $46,145 for the 321-hp, 275-lb-ft 3.6-liter V6. Gearbox options include a six-speed manual on some 2.0 models or a six-speed automatic on both of them, and they can be ordered with all-wheel drive for $2,450 to the four-cylinder or $2,600 to the 3.6.
One thing that Cadillac does especially well here is giving customers a plethora of models and options to choose from. Trim level choices include standard, luxury, performance and premium for the four-cylinder or luxury, performance and premium for the V6. There are also 10 colors available, five of which carry an extra premium of $495 or $995. Upgraded interior packages for $1,295 add improved trim and leather, as well.

Cadillac bids farewell to CTS-V Coupe with special edition

Mon, 12 May 2014

With the introduction of the latest Cadillac CTS, we knew it would only be a matter of time before a new CTS-V would come along. Now General Motors has revealed that the next CTS-V will arrive sometime next year, but before it does, the company is sending off the outgoing coupe with a special edition.
For 2015, the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe will come in a limited edition of 500 units decked out with a dark grille treatment, satin-finish wheels, red brake calipers and an upgraded cabin. The interior is decked out Recaro seats trimmed in black with red stitching, Midnight Sapele wood trim, metal pedals and a microsuede-trimmed steering wheel and shifter.
Buyers will be able to opt for white, gray or optional black exterior paint, an available sunroof and a six-speed transmission in either manual or automatic configuration. Of course, the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 comes standard with 556 horsepower, as does Magnetic Ride Control and brakes by Brembo. Pricing will be announced closer to launch, but in the mean time, you can read all there is to know by checking out the official release below.

GM recalling 117,000 sedans, crossovers, SUVs, pickups and vans

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

General Motors has issued a stop-sale to dealers and has notified the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration of its intention to recall 117,000 vehicles in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Of those vehicles, only 4,500 are at dealerships.
The affected vehicles include the Cadillac CTS and Chevrolet Impala sedans, fullsize SUVs (Cadillac Escalade, Chevy Tahoe and Suburban and GMC Yukon and Yukon XL), Lambda-platform crossovers (Chevy Traverse, Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia), heavy-duty pickups (Chevy Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD) and fullsize vans (Chevy Express and GMC Savana). The sedans and body-on-frame SUVs include model years 2013 and 2014, while the CUVs, heavy-duty pickups and vans are limited to MY2014.
GM confirmed the recall to Autoblog via an emailed statement (which we've included below). According to the statement, the issue at hand in what is the company's 69th recall of 2014 covers the chassis-control module. Automotive News is reporting that a problem in the chassis-control system could cause a short in the module, which could cause the engine to stall or fail to start. The fault could also affect the trailer-brake control, provided it's equipped.
