> auction prices? you have to be kidding me lol nobody goes to an auction looking for either one of our cars…and the condition mine is in it couldn’t make it to an auction…dealership material…

Auction prices drive retail prices of all cars.

Used caddies (mainly FWD DeVilles, Sevilles, Eldos) have some of the worst resale values out there. Reliability is a major issue with them. Also very expensive to fix. Ever put a starter in a Northstar? How about a head gasket job? They are throw away cars.

I’m not a GP or Mustang fan either, but I’d take either one of them all day before a used Cadillac (with the exception of an Escalade/EXT).
