Cadillac XTS Unveiled at the LA Auto Show

By

The day has finally come as the Cadillac XTS is going to debut tomorrow at the LA auto show. This car is set to replace the STS and the DTS. I don’t have the full details yet as I couldn’t fly out to LA for the auto show. This car looks amazing, I love the metal trim on the bottom of the doors.

The car is made from the inside out and features luxury and an emphasis on safety. This car is sure to be a big seller with Cadillac owners that prefer a larger model than the CTS. Detail on the car specs are not out yet and all we know is it will have the new CUE infotainment system.

Come on over to the forum where we are discussing the Cadillac XTS.

1937 Cadillac Lasalle in South Africa

Today’s newsletter is from Tony from South Africa and his 1937 Lasalle

It was about 7 years ago and I was dropping my friends son of at his friends place and while there I noticed a old shed full of junk. So I went and had a look and found this 1937 Cadillac buried under 20 years of built up junk.

I approched the owner and he did not want to sell it so for the next few years I hounded him to sell it to me, well misfortune due to to the death of his family in a road accident allowed him to sell it to me.

The story goes that way back in 1937 2 Cadillac”s were delivered to South Africa and this one is the only one left, the man I bought it from used to have a car dealership and he had owned it for over 30 years and had partly restored it and also changed its color from blue to black.

He drove the car to where I found it more than 20 years ago. The car was almost 100% complete, just a few little things missing, rear numberplate clear glass lens, 1 hub cap, and a piece of chrome on the rear taillight.

Two years ago I sent it to be restored and its nearly ready, I drove it for the first time in over 20 years. I have to find 4 hub caps for it as the ones I have are rusted out.

Cadillac Birthday Cake

By

Our friend Jerry just celebrated his 50th birthday and his kids did something special for him. They made him a cake that resembled his 1970 Cadillac Eldorado.


Hi Vinny
It was great to make a global connection yesterday with fellow 1970 Eldorado owners from across the big pond.
At a surprise birthday party for me last night , my daughters had a cake made in the shape and similar colors to my 70 Eldorado show car that was featured last month. I guess my daughters have come to completely understand my passion and love for Caddy’s. Take note of the detail in the body contouring and rear side marker lenses.

Happy Birthday Jerry! You have some great kids.
