600 lb-ft. I have a 600, not a 65 AMG. But still about as much torque as a diesel bro-dozer.

F**k Johan De Nysschen. F**k GM. F**k Cadillac.
I’m still not entirely clear on how our system is classified. I’ve been told that it isn’t actually hydropneumatic because we don’t have the gas charged accumulator spheres. Which would just mean it’s just hydraulic, hold the pneumatic. But we do have some kind of accumulator component, but I’m not sure what function…
That was my question I guess, are they still equipping new models with it? Which the answer is no. So, yeah, disappointing.
Do they still even use their hydropneumatic suspension? I’m a little unclear on that. If they don’t, then I’m seriously uninterested.
I’m going through the same thing with my 2004 S600 right now, except that $5,500 tandem power steering/ABC pump replacement means I no longer have a choice. I have to sell it and the odds of it being bought by someone like me are slim to none.
My mechanic is screwing me right now. You know what a W220 Mercedes does when something goes wrong with any system? It logs a code in a computer that can be read by star diagnostics yielding a cause of the problem in about 10 minutes. He’s had my car since Monday afternoon and he still hasn’t called with what’s wrong…
Wow. You’ve got an AMG steering wheel? Like an S55 AMG steering wheel? With no wood?
Cadillac Fleetwood. 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham. The best equipped and newest example of malaise “real” Cadillac you can buy.
My S600 just treated itself to a $300.40 air conditioning recharge today. After a $575 front break job on monday...because I’m on spring break and don’t have time for that shit.
Isn’t Dodge supposed to be kicking Durango production over to Jeep at some point so they can sell it as a new Wagoneer? Is that still a thing? That’s the concept I would like to see from Jeep. This, this would just be too much. The hellcat engine in a wrangler would be...I don’t even know what it would be. An…
Can someone please offer me an explanation as to why the quintessential “look like the aristocracy for plebeian money” Jaguar XJ has not made it’s way to the approved comments section yet? Seriously, my family’s ‘04 twice-salvaged titled Vanden Plas is more recognizable and gets more compliments than my S-Class all…

Close, but let me fix that for you:
The Benz M275 was making that same torque figure at 1800 RPM when it debuted over a decade ago.
Speak for yourself. Burled walnut root forever. I love my interior.
My first car, the 1994 Buick Park Avenue Ultra. Supercharged.
I’ve got a neighbor with a, I want to say, 1987-88 County LWB Range Rover. Clearcoat gone, paint peeling, and generally looking like every other neglected first gen Range Rover.
I hate to admit it, but this thing is growing on me. I didn’t know the 3.6 was an option until I was surprised to find a configurator up on Cadillac’s website a week ago.
