1976 Cadillac Seville Kingswood Green on 2040-cars
Bean Station, Tennessee, United States

1976 Cadillac Seville.
This is a beautiful survivor with interesting history. This rare Kingswood Green Seville was originally sent by GM to be a VIP Courtesy Vehicle at the Masters Golf Classic.
The vehicle was driven a little over 300 miles and was sold as a “program vehicle" to Sexton Cadillac Knoxville, TN where it was sold to the first owner. The second owner bought it in 1980 where it has remained until his passing. The vehicle was clearly his pride and joy. The vehicle has extensive documentation from the day he bought it and has been garaged since. Though she is not perfect… she is a prime example of a well cared for and cherished vehicle. The vehicle has had a complete and correct repaint in 1998 at the dealership. Everything from anual leather treatment to all service aspects and adjustments were documented with receipts to back it up. This car has been pampered. The vehicle was dealership R134 AC converted with the correct compressor and parts. The leather is soft and supple. The carpets are beautiful. The dash has 2 very small heat cracks in the pad. The top is blemish free. The complete front end was rebuilt and properly aligned. The fuel injection was dealership rebuilt. It drives as it did in 1976. The car is sound. The dash bright work is excellent. The factory radio functions as new along with the power antenna. The climate control works well. This vehicle has been kept up with no glaring issues. She is a pleasure to drive and gets compliments daily. The fuel injection performs perfectly and she will get up to 21 mpg on the highway. All seals and rubber are in fantastic condition. The turbine wheel inserts are in the trunk “the owner didn’t like them” She is smooth tight and quiet. She still smells like new leather and she glides down the road true and straight and stops smoothly. . You can compare this vehicle to a 3-5 year old garaged vehicle.... its a joy to drive. Vehicle was just serviced with new battery and fluids. The vehicle comes will all manuals/receipts and owners documentation. The owner kept a complete journal. She has the factory spare with the mini inflation canister. This vehicle has won local shows for best in class. The paint is deep and shows very well. There are 2 minor blemishes but you have to look for them. This vehicle is smoke, rust and accident free. The lighter has never been used. Like others on here with 5 digit odometers… I’m not going to say it has 17k miles. This Caddy was driven and cherished. She has had a pampered 117K miles and needs nothing. The rear bumper insert is the only cosmetic item needing replaced. The trunk key cover is missing.
This Seville is sure to please and is priced to go. This is a time capsule that is a lot of vehicle for the $. The pictures pay this no justice... the car is beautiful! My feedback says it all.
Please feel free to ask any questions and I can send as many pictures as needed. Happy Bidding. |

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
2015 Cadillac ATS-V gunning for the BMW M3
Mon, 03 Jun 2013Spy photographers have spotted something interesting. Cadillac engineers have taken to public streets with the upcoming ATS-V and a playmate: the current BMW M3 Sedan. The prototype seen here wears a more aggressive front fascia, flared fenders and beefy brakes. Quad exhaust tips and what looks to be a small lip spoiler on the trunk deck sum up the most obvious visual changes over the standard ATS outside. Word has it the ATS-V will bow with the same twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6 available in the nose of the XTS. In that application, the engine is good for a stout 410 horsepower, which should be more than enough to hustle the sedan around a track.
Other details are still murky, however. First and foremost: will GM offer the ATS-V with an honest manual transmission, like it does with its big brother, the CTS-V? Something tells us we won't have long to wait to find out - the machine will likely bow next year as a 2015 model. Until then, dig in on our newest bevy of spy photos.
Cadillac sales chief fired over policy violation
Sun, 21 Jul 2013Amidst a good year for Cadillac, which is experiencing higher sales gains than any other US brand this year, the US sales chief has been fired over a policy violation, Automotive News reports.
The sales chief, Chase Hawkins, "has left effective immediately," GM spokesman David Caldwell told Automotive News. Caldwell went on to say that Hawkins' replacement would be chosen soon.
Hawkins became the US sales chief in June 2012, and before that was the regional sales director for Cadillac in the Northeast US, overseeing 168 dealerships.
