1975 Cadillac Eldorado --500-CID, V8 engine --Front-wheel drive; three-speed automatic transmission (Turbo hydra-matic) --50,555 actual miles --Private seller offers this original 1975 Cadillac Eldorado, as part of an estate sale. Always garaged in the dry. rust free climate of Fresno, CA. Driven weekly and well maintained by the local dealer. This proud example of the Eldorado has only known one owner/driver. General Motors’ successful Eldorado models needed a redesign. The eighth generation (first year 1971) brought back the convertible model missing from Generation VII. The popularity continued as sales rose, and the Eldorado was chosen as the Indy 500 pace car in 1973. The 1975 models took after its predecessor from 1974. That year, models featured a redesigned instrument cluster that GM sales brochures dubbed the “space age” instrument panel. Eldorados from this mark where seen in many movies of the 70s, including the James Bond film “Live and Let Die.” 1975 was at the worst of the economic recession during that time. This led to low sales of the 1975 Eldorado. Just two years earlier, Eldorados accounted for one-sixth of Cadillac’s sales with 51, 451 sold. The 1975 Eldorado didn’t have the Fleetwood title. The year after, GM introduced the Biarritz luxury package. However, new standards on the ’75 included six-way power adjustable seats, power lock doors, tinted glass and lamp monitors. Factory options for the Eldorado were electronic fuel injection, passenger recliner seat and air cushion restraint system. Under the hood of this Cadillac you see pictured is a 500-CID, V8 engine. This car is front-wheel drive with a three-speed automatic, turbo hydra-matic transmission. This car has 50,555 original miles, and the car has only had ONE owner/driver. The highlight of this ’75 is the original interior. The smooth, pueblo metallic-color and leather is a sign of the elegant Eldorado design. The dark wood paneling along the dash will transport you right back to the 1970s. The AM/FM radio, a new standard in 1975, is original along with all the gauges which are operable. This Caddy has power steering, brakes and transmission. The convertible top is a classic White. Taking a ride in this Cadillac convertible will show you how Eldorado became such a successful make for GM. Mileage currently reads 50,555, and it is being sold on a clear California title.

Cadillac shows 2015 Escalade interior

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Following the reveal of the new GMC Yukon, Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, the next in line is Cadillac, which is set to unveil the new Escalade on October 7 in New York. And in the lead-up to the reveal, the company has released this third teaser image, giving us a good glimpse of the 'Slade's interior.
Or part of the interior, we should say, because while the image above clearly shows the new dashboard and center console, as well as parts of the front seats and interior door panels, the Escalade is most certainly not a two-seat coupe. The outgoing Escalade can accommodate up to eight in either standard or ESV form (but not in EXT pickup configuration), and the new model promises to deliver the same, and we're curious to see what Cadillac has in store for the rear passenger compartment.
Compared to its more accessible counterparts, the new Escalade clearly offers a more upscale environment than even the uplevel Yukon Denali, with softer-looking leather, richer wood veneer and a waterfall center infotainment console that's different from the more modular design in the Chevy and GMC. The steering wheel is also unique and the instrument cluster appears to meld more smoothly across the dashboard, but the door mirrors, wide center armrest, column shifter and A-pillar grab handle all look like they were carried over from the Escalade's platform mates.

GM recalls Chevy Impala, Cadillac XTS for braking problem

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Back in April, General Motors launched an investigation into braking issues affecting the 2014 Chevy Impala. Now there's a recall of both the Impala and the Cadillac XTS with which it shares its Epsilon II platform.
The issue apparently revolves around the electronic parking brake, which may not properly disengage. As a result, the rear brake pads could rub the rotor even while the vehicle is in motion, causing "significant heat, smoke and sparks." The earlier investigation had been launched following a complaint regarding the forward collision avoidance system, which is now either appears to have been unrelated or possibly a symptom of this larger issue.
The recall affects 2013-15 XTS models manufactured between February 14, 2012, and August 22, 2014, as well as 2014-15 Impalas manufactured between January 15, 2013, and August 22, 2014. The total number of affected vehicles reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration comes to precisely 132,921 units, while The Detroit News reports a higher total of 205,000 units - the difference potentially coming down to the scope within the US and more broadly across North America. Dealers will contact owners to update the software in order to fix the problem.

Cadillac dealers get $5,000 incentive for ELR test drives

Tue, 13 May 2014

The 530 Cadillac dealers - out of 940 total dealers - that signed on to sell the brand's ELR for $75,000 or lease it for $699 per month have managed to move 247 of them in the last five months. That's a little less than two cars for each dealer more than two dealers for each car if you need help with the math. With inventories of the luxury plug-in hybrid building up - Automotive News reports a 725-day supply - General Motors has created the Demonstrator Allowance Program to billow the sails on that slow moving ship, giving dealers $5,000 to promote ELR test drives.
A dealer with one ELR in its test fleet that racks up 750 test driven miles between May 1 and June 2 earns the fifty Benjamins, a dealer with two ELRs in the test fleet will get one hundred Benjamins. That will be added to summer incentives for dealers that pay $2,000 for units sold in July and $1,000 for units sold in August, while on the customer side, Cadillac has put "customer discount certificates" worth $3,000 on the hood for buyers and lessees.
Cadillac suggests this is about raising awareness of the ELR, but the question is how much dealers will be able to do for a car that observers - and buyers, apparently - still consider highly overpriced.
