Low Miles 1997 Cadillac Deville on 2040-cars
Midland, Michigan, United States
1997 Cadillac DeVille low miles good condition $1,800 OBO 111,700 miles Texas car Due to the purchase of a new car and no room, I am selling my beloved sled. Over all condition is good being a 97. It does have some cosmetic issues. The Good: (I have receipts for most of these) New Motor Mounts as of June '14 Coolant system check June '14 Relatively new tires last year approximately 10k miles on 40k mile treads A/C rebuilt April '13 (currently needs charged) Always used full synthetic motor oil since 60,000 miles, oil changed 6/13/14 Battery replaced 1/13 Replaced one fuel injector and check others March '12 Interior is in good to fair shape, drivers seat is typically worn but no tears. All others in great shape. Carpet is decent. Texas car until I moved last fall (probably no rust whatsoever)
The Bad: Cracked windshield Drivers side lock doesn't work Front Passenger window button doesn't work (can be rolled down from drivers side) Dent in driver side front finder behind wheel Paint has typical clear coat fade
She is not perfect but well maintained and has proved to be a reliable car. Northstar 4.6 is a very strong runner and great freeway car with suprisingly good gas mileage (about 26 HWY/21 City). It is not unusual to see these with well over 200k miles. I drove this car over a hundred miles a day for work until last year when I moved from Texas in August.

GM winding down Chevrolet brand in Europe
Thu, 05 Dec 2013If you've taken even a cursory look at GM's European strategy and wondered how it can target the market there with both Chevrolet and Opel/Vauxhall, you're not alone. In fact General Motors itself has found it difficult to justify the two-pronged approach. That's why it's essentially pulling Chevy from the European marketplace.
Instead of trying to ply European buyers with what are mostly former Daewoo products rebadged as Chevys, GM will now let Opel (or Vauxhall in the UK) represent its mass-market aspirations. Chevrolet will keep its presence in Russia and other former Soviet markets, and will continue selling certain niche products in Eastern and Western Europe. The Corvette, for example, has long been sold in Europe through Cadillac dealerships, which for its part is currently "finalizing plans for expanding in the European market".
While the shift in strategy is expected to help GM get a stronger foothold in the European market in the long run, in the short term the restructuring will cost it dearly: between $700 million and $1 billion, according to its own estimates, split between the last quarter of this year and the first half of the next.

Cadillac to vie for Secret Service armored car contract, new Beast?
Wed, 03 Jul 2013President Obama has used the same armored limo since his inauguration in 2008. Known by many as The Beast, the Presidential Limo was provided by Cadillac and earned its nickname in large part because of its massive size, which isn't surprising considering that its Caddy-shaped bodywork is said to sit atop a heavy-duty truck chassis.
It seems the Secret Service may be in the market for a Beast replacement, having issued a request for proposals for a new armored limo. According to Motor Trend, Obama's backup limo is a leftover from the Bush Administration, so it will be interesting to see if this new machine will serve as a replacement for The Beast or for its backup. The contract is to be awarded by September 29, 2013.
The boys from MT contacted Cadillac, Lincoln and Chrysler, and Chrysler is the only one that would confirm that it is not pursuing the contract. Cadillac may have the inside track, as it has provided Presidential limos since 1993, but Lincoln also has a long and storied history of chauffeuring the President.
Cadillac toned down ATS Coupe design due to customer feedback [w/poll]
Tue, 02 Sep 2014Automakers always face a difficult decision when it comes to styling their cars. Design them too blandly and nobody will get excited about them. But style them too aggressively and they'll often end up turning off potential buyers.
Cadillac, for its part, is no stranger to aggressive design, but when it came to the new ATS Coupe, it elected to tone things down a bit. Speaking with The Detroit News in a wide-ranging interview, Cadillac design director Bob Boniface revealed that the original design for its compact coupe was edgier - closer to that of the CTS Coupe - with a wedgier profile, a more steeply raked beltline and a more severe grille. But potential customers surveyed in clinics apparently didn't like it. They found it looked heavy, inefficient and not fun to drive. So Boniface and his team literally went back to the drawing board and "took as much visual mass out of the car as [they] could." The resulting coupe, while handsome, looks far more similar to its four-door companion than did Cadillac's CTS.
What do you think, does the new ATS Coupe look just right, or is it too conservative? Voice your opinion in our quick online poll.
