You are bidding on one of the finest cars produced by General Motors that I have ever seen. I have truly enjoyed this car more than any other vehicle I have ever owned. My wife and I just recently had our second child, and as much as I hate to get rid of this car, I find myself in a position where I must. I take pride in having a 100% positive feedback score and I sell items in the way I would like to purchase them. I have bought and sold many vehicles off eBay and I find that if the seller will spend enough time on the description, the buyer will have no regrets after the sale. With that being said I am about to list a great amount of information about this fabulous vehicle. I did quite a bit of research prior to buying this car and I have continued to do research after owning this car; therefore I am confident I can answer any question you may have about this vehicle. Please email me with any questions and I will make every effort to respond the same day. Please do not assume anything but you are welcome to ask any question you can think of. I have a complete list of standard and optional features for this vehicle that I am happy to email to anyone who requests it. It took me several months of searching and looking at over 500 vehicles to find a STS that was configured exactly like this one. The reason it took me so long is because in 2005 Cadillac produced a total of 18,807 STS models. Of the 18,807 STS models produced that year there were less that 5 that were made exactly like this one! Yes that is correct less than 5 Cadillac STS Model vehicles were made exactly like this one in 2005. This information can be verified at http://www.compnine.com/vid.php?vin=1g6dc67a450130383 You can look all over Ebay, Autotrader, and Craigslist and you are not going to find a car exactly like this one anywhere. You might get close, you might find one with all the options you want but it doesn’t have Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), or maybe it doesn’t have the Performance Handling Package, or maybe it has everything you want but the color combination is not quite right. If you are still reading this, you are probably like me and know exactly what you want and are glad that you have found it!

I have listed this vehicle with an existing warranty and I want to be completely clear as to what this extended warranty covers. The factory 50k mile warranty has expired; however Cadillac has extended the warranty on the Catalytic Converter only up to 200k miles. Please note that the extended warranty is through Cadillac and is for the catalytic converter only. No other warrant is present with this vehicle. Now for the important information. I would list the condition of this STS as above average. I have spent several thousand dollars in service and maintenance trying to keep this vehicle in as new of condition as possible. I always use Mobile1 oil and service the vehicle at the local Cadillac dealer. Service records are available upon request. All of the miles on the vehicle are highway miles. The front tires are new with less than 6k miles. The rear tires are in good condition but will more than likely need to be replaced within the next 10k miles. I have bought many vehicles off ebay and want to provide you with the most accurate information possible. I have many photos showing all of the minor flaws for the car. I will provide any and all photos upon request. The flaws are minor, but I would want to know this information if I was buying the car. On the exterior there is one small dent on the driver’s side hood area. The dent is very small and not noticeable to the average person. There is also one small dent on the rear spoiler. This one is also small and not noticeable to the average person. There are minor scratches on the passenger side quarter panel and rear bumper, but are also hard to see. Inside the car there is one small chip out of the passenger side door arm rest. The chip is small and somewhat not noticeable. The window tint on the driver side rear window is bubbled slightly. The bubbles are only noticeable from the inside. The heated steering and xm radio are not working. I am unaware as to why the heated steering wheel is not working; however all other features of the steering wheel function correctly. I had the xm radio checked and the dealer stated that it might be the antenna. All other functions of the navigation system/radio work correctly. The auto check shows a loan against the car; however this is not correct, I have the title in my position. Also it shows a duplicate title, this is because when the lean holder released the title they changed the title number. I have priced this STS to sale. The Buy It Now price is very reasonable for the age, condition, and options for this type of vehicle. The Reserve Price is priced well below the NADA, KBB, & Edmunds Trade In Value. I have taken into consideration the age, condition, and mileage of this vehicle and feel that my reserve price is a very good deal for any buyer. You might find an STS with lower miles and a lesser cost, but you will not find one with the options that this has for the price I have agreed to accept. Please note that this vehicle is being sold locally and driven, so the actual miles may be higher than they are at the time this auctions starts. I also reserve the right to cancel the auction in the event that someone purchases the car locally. Thank you for taking the time to view my auction and vehicle. Happy Bidding & Merry Christmas
