1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham in absolutely beautiful condition with 34,317 original miles. This is a private party sale and I am the car's second owner. It has never been smoked in and still smells brand new inside. When I purchased the car, I had been shopping specifically for a Brougham with the rare option code CA2 "Vinyl roof covering delete", and this car has it. There are not many to be found. The vinyl roof that normally came with the Brougham package was quite unattractive on this body style; the appearance of the car is far superior without it. The full-size spare (and extra alloy wheel) is also on this car's option list. Since it has the Brougham package, it has all power options including memory seats and heated seats, additional vanity mirrors for the rear passengers, polished alloy wheels, et cetera (see bottom of this ad for the complete list of option codes located in the trunk). The official color name is "Frost Beige" and it is gorgeous. This car has not been in any accidents and the paint on every body panel is original. It is also completely free of rust, dents, and even dings -- not even a dimple. The chrome moldings are still smooth with no shriveling (this is often a problem on other Fleetwoods). The interior is like new in every way. The leather is perfect and soft with no damage whatsoever. The glass is perfect all around and the windshield does not have any previous repairs or pits or anything at all. The tires are all new (receipt included). The 5.7L LT1 V8 engine is extremely powerful and in perfect running order. Everything works perfectly and all factory recommended bulletins have been completed at the dealer. There are no leaks of any kind and it needs nothing at all. The air conditioning is ice cold and has never needed re-charging. There are no rattles or squeak noises while going down the road. It is as silent as it was when new. As for flaws, all I can find are a few minor scratches and three little imperfections: 1. There are a few cracks in the decorative plastic around the window molding on the passenger rear door. 2. There is one very thin crack in the the rear bumper molding. 3. There is also a very small nick (the size of a pea or smaller) in one of the rear plastic bumper fillers. These items are extremely minor but I do not someone to say I was withholding anything in the description. You will be very impressed with the car. It looks like new. The Cadillac comes with both remote controls, gold keys, and owner's manual. It also comes with a full service history in a written book (you must scroll all the way to the bottom to see where I have typed out the service history). At 31,832 miles, a long list of services was completed including new brakes. I do not think you will find a finer example of a '96 Fleetwood Brougham anywhere, especially with such low miles together with the fact it has the much more desirable CA2 option. CONDITIONS: I am willing to end the auction early if needed for selling the car in person (it is for sale locally). You are welcome to have the car inspected before purchasing it (please call me to arrange it). Please pay for the car within 3 days. It is currently registered and insured. I have the clear title in hand. I will be very happy to answer questions and I can be reached on my cell phone most of the time (if I do no answer please leave a message): (417) 489-2532. My name is Adam. Since it was the last year for the big rear wheel drive Cadillacs, it will only go up in value with time. These cars are also very special because of their fabulous "LT1" 350 CID V8, which makes it feel as fast as a sports car yet gets an amazing 26 MPG on the highway. This was the same engine they were installing in the Corvette at the time, the last generation of the longest production engine GM ever made. The best thing about it is longevity, since the engine is easy to work on and parts will always be available. The body has no dings or hail damage at all. All panels are perfectly smooth and straight. The paint still looks like new. 1996 was a very good year for the new GM two stage clear coat paint process. There are no crows feet or fading or bubbles or anything. When in the shade, this "Frost Beige" color looks more like a silvery tan. When in the sun, the metallic finish shows more like a gold. It is a beautiful color. Note: If you have trouble viewing the pictures, be sure to use both scroll bars. Also if one does not load, you can right click on it and choose "show picture". Even though it has the "Brougham" package, it was special ordered from the factory with no vinyl top and looks fabulous. To show there are no door dings at all. The leather interior still looks like brand new in every way, even on the outside edge of the driver's seat. There has never been any "touch ups" or dye or anything done to it. The carpets are equally as pristine without the slightest sign of wear. When I purchased it, the floor mats were all covered by protective white carpeting by the original owner. The car only has 34K miles on it and barely shows any signs of use. These are the heated seat and lumbar controls (same on passenger side also). The power seat controls are located on the door arm rests. 34,317 original documented miles. All ash trays and lighters have never been used. Tires are like brand new. All 4 tires were replaced on 9-6-2010 at 33,883 miles and they are under warranty. They now have just 434 miles on them (I have not even burned one tank of gas since they were replaced). They are 75,000 mile rated tires. The original owner paid for this "Automark ID", a dealer added option where the car's VIN number is very subtly etched into every piece of glass (see example above) and in many other places around the car such as the engine compartment. The following is his booklet inside the glove compartment documenting every service done to the car since it was brand new. MAINTENANCE HISTORY: Sept 9, 1997, 3913 miles, oil and filter change.

I live near Branson, Missouri. This is a great time of year to visit Branson as the tourist season is in full swing. It might make a nice trip to combine a visit to Branson with picking up the Cadillac. I would be happy to pick you up at any one of 3 airports: Springfield SGF, Branson BKG, and Northwest Arkansas XNA. Some of the super discount airlines are moving in around here. Branson has Frontier Airlines, Branson Air Express, and Airtran Airways (access these through www.flybranson.com), while Springfield now has Allegiant Air (www.allegiantair.com). The discount airlines are not listed on travel websites like Orbitz.com; rather, you have to go directly to their websites to find flights. Otherwise, you can arrange your own shipping and I will be available when the shipper arrives. If you have questions, my home telephone number is: (417) 489-2532. Thank you.
