First, thanks for looking. Here we have a 1984 Fleetwood Brougham De Elegance. I purchased the car from an older gentleman in Denver, CO when I lived in CO. He inherited the car from his brother who bought It new from Rickenbaugh Cadillac. It was always very well cared for and had just under 50K miles when I purchased it. The original motor was bad and I replaced it with a professionally rebuilt 425 Cadillac V-8. The original TBI was adapted to the old Cadillac manifold and the motor is powered by new Chevy 454 throttle body fuel injectors. The motor runs well and averages low teens mpg. The highest I have yet to achieve is 20 mpg on the freeway. This motor can put out an excess amount of torque/PWR such that caution must be used so as to not destroy the stock THM-200R4 transmission! This very we'll may be the only Fuel injected 4 speed/overdrive big block Cadillac Fleetwood out there! Everything works on this Cadillac as it should except that the A/C has never been charged since the motor conversion. I believe this Fleetwood has every available option for 1984 except moonroof. This is a nice one of a kind Cadillac. The paint is nearly original and has checked/faded some. All in all a super Cadillac! Please email or call with questions. I have more than a dozen cars and intend on selling a few this year. Happy bidding! The auction will not end early; no buy it now option- period.
WILLING TO DELIVER FOR A FEE TO WINNING BUYER/bidder depending on distance & time.

Cadillac ATS failing to command BMW 3 Series-like pricing as hoped

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

The BMW 3 Series has long been the benchmark for small and sporty luxury vehicles, but the Cadillac ATS has come on strong in its short time on the market as a true rival in this segment. As impressive as Cadillac's new compact sedan is, however, Automotive News is reporting that the car is still lagging behind the 3 Series when it comes to actual transaction pricing.
According to the article, the average transaction price for the ATS is $39,459 while the 3 Series is at a much larger $44,764, but, just as importantly, Cadillac has about $500 more in incentives on the ATS compared to BMW. Transaction prices are much closer to cars like the Mercedes C-Class and Audi A4. Of course, this is all with the ATS trying to take on its small,sport sedan rivals with a single bodystyle and limited powertrain options compared to the numerous options available from the German automakers in this class.
This uneven battle won't last long, though, as recent spy shots have revealed that Cadillac is hard at work on a high-performance ATS-V and an ATS Coupe. No official word as to when either of these models will be unveiled, but with auto show season set to kick off, we're expecting sooner rather than later. The best news for the ATS is that the Automotive News says sales of the ATS are on target and that 74 percent of ATS buyers are new to Cadillac - two important factors for the brand as it tries to break into this tough segment.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable

Sun, 10 Aug 2014

A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.

Cadillac LTS flagship to bow at NY Auto Show

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

There is widespread agreement across the industry that Cadillac needs a proper, rear-drive flagship sedan that completes legitimately with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series.
Fortunately, the same view is held within the company, and just such a car - possibly dubbed LTS - is under development. According to a high-level source at Cadillac, the new four-door, which is said to incorporate design cues from the marque's celebrated Elmiraj coupe concept, will debut at the New York Auto Show next April.
If the car needs a cheerleader, surely incoming president Johan de Nysschen is just such a person. De Nysschen doesn't arrive at Cadillac until late in the month, but certainly he will want a proper flagship to do battle with his old foes at Mercedes-Benz and BMW and old friends at Audi and Infiniti.
