It was an early summer afternoon in 2000. I was already on a high after asking Christina to the junior prom, but little did I know the day would only get even better. My dad raised up his keys to his 1992 Cadillac Allanté; the metal hit a glint of the sun, blinding me slightly. And then the words I had always wanted…
I just got off the phone with David Kohn, a mechanic from Boone, North Carolina, who used a bunch of brilliant home-brew methods to turn a Cadillac Seville into a flatbed car-hauler. Here’s how he concocted this genius bit of automotive glory.
Doug’s Cadillac in Washington state somehow managed to get their hands on a 2007 Cadillac CTS-V with only 108 miles on the odometer. Although I suspect time travel, I’ll let it slide for now. I must learn your secrets, Doug.

A coterie of semi-autonomous products are set to hit the road in the coming months, with General Motors ahead of the pack, introducing its Super Cruise feature in the new Cadillac CT6. And now we know how much it’ll cost to buy a CT6 with semi-autonomy: $71,300, according to Automotive News.

Building cars strictly for luxury and not for sport is all but dead. The 1977 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz was the personal luxury coupe’s last grand hurrah before the oil crisis pushed a need to downsize. Doug DeMuro sums this car up best when he says, “I feel like I’m driving a condominium.”
Recently I got to take Cadillac’s CTS-V all over some of my favorite Texas Hill Country roads. It was great, but that was only part of the story. The real reason I was driving the CTS-V was to test out the $1,600 optional Performance Data Recording system that Cosworth developed for Cadillac. They not only use this in…
Nearly 2,000 mechanics in the Chicago area have been on strike since Tuesday over work hours. Letters allegedly sent by more than one dealership informed employees of the “consequences” of striking: a discontinuing of their health insurance, hiring ads for their jobs and, in one case, tools being put outside.
We at Jalopnik have screamed to anyone who will listen that the Cadillac ATS and CTS sedans are not only good, but great, especially in their high-performance V versions. But things are tough for sedans right now. That’s a problem for Cadillac, which pinned a lot of its early comeback hopes on those sedans. The…
You’re the best, right? Of course you are. You’ve been to the best schools, know all the best words, and were bred for success like a goddamn racehorse. I get it. So why would you drive some overpriced shitbox that any jackass can own? You wouldn’t, which is why you need to buy this incredibly rare Trump Gold Edition…
Cadillac president Johan de Nysschen debunked rumors about the luxury CT6 sedan being on the chopping block earlier, and said the company is actually reconfiguring its sedan lineup. But it’s the crossovers that are taking over the car market, and de Nysschen said Cadillac has plans for that.
When Reuters reported Thursday that six General Motors vehicles, including the new, technology-flagship Cadillac CT6, could get axed due to a U.S. sales slump, it came as a surprise to us at Jalopnik. When we asked Cadillac president Johan de Nysschen about it, he said, “That report came as a surprise to me, too.”
Thanks to a big sales slump in the U.S., General Motors has a lot of unsold cars sitting around. The slump is extending factory shutdowns, putting jobs at risk, and, now, it’s threatening to take away the car that’s taking Cadillac back to the roots that we all longed for—the new CT6, which is supposed to be a shining…
Cars won’t just be driving themselves one day—they’ll be communicating things like traffic conditions and the weather with everything else around them. Connected cars will be masses of sensors and outpouring radio signals, but if carmakers aren’t careful, this data sharing will open itself up to hacks and cyber…
Despite some solid products, Cadillac has struggled to get traction in the sedan market. But people are crowding the showroom to see a car prominently featured in the automaker’s ads: the Escala. The only problem is the Escala is not for sale.
An anonymous tipster shared a photo of a Cadillac CT6, outfitted with autonomous driving sensors and scanners, which they spotted parked in Pittsburgh yesterday.
It’s no secret that Cadillac has had a hard time selling their non-Escalade offerings. This results in some serious depreciation in the pre-owned market. Which is good news, if you happen to be looking to buy a 420 horsepower used luxury sedan for less than a loaded Malibu.

I don’t know if this 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood hearse that’s been converted into an RV is someone just making do with what they have or a move so goth, Andrew Eldritch would sneer at it in disdain. All I know is this Caddy for sale on eBay is the most wonderful weird car I’ve seen for sale in a long time.
