Vehicles filmed at Dealerships are For Sale. Make sure to visit the dealerships website for detail info about each vehicle. If your watching a video thats older than 90 days you can expect that vehicle to most likely already being sold, unless its a new car.
FYI - Charleston Car Videos on TH-cam Started in 2011. Back in 2008 is when I started filming cars as a car salesman to give people a better way to see a new or used vehicle. Over the years I ended up selling over 450 vehicles from doing videos. Today 1000's of vehicles have sold from people watching my car reviews in America. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I own 2014 XTS luxury owned it for about a year an I'm 30 I get looks all the time , absolutely love it has 122k miles no major issues (knock on wood). Best car I've owned could have bought m4 or S class Mercedes but this was a better ride and more luxurious imo!!! I don't ever plan on selling it because Cadillacs are like wine they get better with time!! like I said I've earned it for over a year and every time I get in it it still feels a brand new It still gives me that sleek ride and even for being an older Cadillac I still get the craziest looks from people, maybe it's because I'm young and driving one but nevertheless absolutely love it! Amazing car And always remember there's a reason why they Don't say it rides like a Lincoln because nothing rides like a Cadillac! And most importantly if you've never owned one the best thing I can tell you is don't let your first ride be your last!!
Last March I bought a 2018 Cadillac XTS V Sport Platinum...Red exterior
With Sugar Maple / Black interior.
54,000 miles on it now
Original sticker price $74,000
ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT
Cadallic has always been on point luxury and style ways. One of the best rides on earth even at over 100k miles and no problems. Still floats. Regular maintenance.
The newer Cadillac are junk terrible ride low profile tires only add to the terrible ride . Struts give bad ride . to replace struts is $3300 at dealer and only dealer can service the struts.
Do not be fooled newer Cadillac cars are not like they use to be
$8500 for a car with 200k miles is freaking ridiculously insane.
Sellers market. China ECU chip shortages are holding car buyers for ransom.
The ones I saw online have 200k and some even 400k.🤷🏾♂️
So is Joe Biden as president
@@PatientXero607More like the current administration
This car is beautiful. Pricing looks good. Take to a mechanic and have it gone over. Would be great for someone who wants to drive in style but can’t afford a new car.
I just wonder about reliability with all those electronics. Cadillac was just rated the worst car manufacturer by Consumer Reports. There are lots of beautiful Mercedes Benz out there too..but they are incredibly expensive to repair.
ME😄
I fell out when you said “oh shit handles” lol that’s funny
Seems to have been well maintained 👌
I really enjoyed your video on one of my favorite sedans to purchase used. Am deciding between this XTS model and an E350. I’ve had both Cadillac’s in the 70’s and 80’s then Mercedes in the 80’s and 90’s. With 17 auto accidents under my belt I have not had to trade in vehicles. Sometimes my vehicles were new, sometimes they were pre-owned and sometimes handed down from parents but always paid cash. I wish I could purchase both vehicles but I am going to keep the Yukon since it has trailer towing and auto ride. My mom bought the SUV with EVERYTHING but 4-wheel drive and I got it when she stopped driving. Very comfortable vehicle and was free. Also worth more to me that the small amount of money that I could get for selling or trading it and it was very well maintained . I inherited my love of cars from her side of the family. Her father and brother were race car drivers and mechanics and always had the coolest cars when I was growing up. So I am passionate about vehicles! 😎
2014 XTS, best car I ever owned. I have driven them all.😊
Great Video Bro😊
Got a 2013, had it a few years and I love it. If u can find one under 100k miles buy one. Soon after 100k u will start spending money on it. Really fast for a v6 though.
Can you please tell me what kind of repairs you had to do on it and how much it cost you total before you got rid of it?
I'm thinking about getting one due to needing an affordable older luxury car with advanced safety features like PreCollision Warning, Lane Departure Warning and Blind Spot Monitor..and there are tons of these 2013-14 XTS's for sale cheap with those features..although they all have between 100k-150k miles on them..and all those electronics get really expensive to repair.
@@Nightbird. think he was talking out the side of his neck. Most ppl go off of rumors instead actually hitting 100k miles and experiencing any problems. I have 125k miles and have only had to replace brake rotors alternator battery and 2 speakers in my driver's seat. That's under 2k in repairs in 4 1/2 years
@@kj232009 That's great to hear. What year is your XTS and what package did you get?
Dodge have problems after 20k
Yep...$2k on ac at 105,000 miles and another $1500 on strutmasters front and rear suspension kit. The factory suspension is TRASH. You will replace struts every 40-50k miles. Othervthan that....Love the car.
Me watching July 1, 2021 thinking it would be 14k today. Nice car
Cool guy,makes me wanna get a vehicle from him.
I know this is an old video but I’m not sure that was the long wheel base … I had one years back and mine said XTS-L on the trunk . The back seat had a lot more leg room also
I just picked up mine for $6700. Has previous salvage title with 70,000 miles. Runs like new
Yeah, i have for sale in Indiana premium with full digital dash and sunroof $10,500
How you get insurance for it?
@@Fyahking619 in Iowa you can register salvage. I didn’t know some states didn’t allow that
Dang $6700 what a deal you got 👍
@@cruz9078 I know haha. It’s at 99,000 miles now. Just took it on a 3,400 mile trip. Ran great
Chad, I Owen this car it’s beautiful car get lot looks on the road.👍
Any problems with the car, I'm looking into getting one soon.
I'm looking into getting one. Any problems ? Since its all electronics. And if there is a problem with the car, will it be easy to be detected by chevy dealership?
How was it on the back of a semi trailer?😊
I have a 2015. The only problem ever was the cue touch screen. It peels apart if you live in a warm area.
Same here but mine is a 2013 ats, I repaired the screen myself for $25 and 3 hours of my time.
2014 was the year caddie fixed the timing chain belt stretch issue - they could have finally got it together ..but dam talk about major maintenance intervals ? We’re they done and do you have receipts? No sunroof gm/caddie fucked that up unless they fixed that too
This is what my parents drive. Only they have the best package and it’s newer
What year is theirs..and have they had any issues with it? Thanks.
Wow that's actually a really good deal for that. Southern car too it seems. GM powertrains are so easy to work on also.
Exactly! Glad to see someone knows a good deal when they see it!
Oh please I can not deal with small death traps but the XTS is nice but no SUNROOF.
a really good price
Tacoma prices are never going down. Literally people sell them for 6k with 250-300k miles on them. Same for 4 runners
LMFAOOOOOO he said “oh shit handles”
Nice
Don't sweat the miles. My 04 CTS has over 300 thousand miles n it's still going!
How did you replace anything
@@Ew0nka just basic stuff, alternator, starter. No transmission issues yet😂
It WAS the flagship until they introduced the new Cadillac CT-6. The Cadillac CT-6 is labeled the flagship and is more expensive than XTS.
Looks a lot like the brandnew cadillac
XTS stands for my whole name
Im sure it rides nice while it's being towed down the street
Cadillac great job on the reliability 200k on it, That’s Impressive.
But we don't know if it's been reliable. Many times dealerships will fix these cars up before putting them for sale doing the bare bones just so they run and then the buyer ends up with a shitload of stuff to fix after owning it a few months.
@nightbird5887 that's goes for any car brand. But yeah most dealerships would do that
Oh shit handles Lmao 😂 😂
Its still 200k miles on every component on the 6 yr old car. Won't find a 14 for any less,but im not sure thats a bragging point. Hopefully, maintenance is to the T. Highway mikes also mean "Fleet" . Ive learned to run from "fleet " vehicles as they're usually not maintained and/or abused. I wouldn't go as far as call the trunk huge. Its only 3 more cu ft than a Nissan Versa. One would also think, a Cadillac owner would at some point during those pampered 200k miles a protective film would've been applied. No?
I was expecting something that was trashed to really be honest.
You Uncle Sam'ed them with that price
My 2011 DTS, Have less miles, and I got a loan for greater than the value of
The RPM gauge does not work.
Cadillac with V6 with 200,000 + miles, squeaking suspension and pulls to the right? $3600 tops. I'd be worried about a bent frame etc. Take it to a shop and get those details fixed. Too many question marks for me. $8,500.00 for a car that the only good thing is a nice stereo, is a lot.
It's crazy. The older xts are more reliable then the 2016 and up
I'm glad you said that because I'm thinking about getting one due to needing an affordable older luxury car with advanced safety features like PreCollision Warning, Lane Departure Warning and Blind Spot Monitor..and there are tons of these 2013-14 XTS's for sale cheap with those features..although they all have between 100k-150k miles on them..and all those electronics get really expensive to repair.
That's GM for ya
@The car enthusiast - Vincent No. Too many repairs..replacement parts are ridiculously expensive..and the electronics are not reliable. Spent more money and got a MB S Class that has a great reliability record and better safety equipment.
@The car enthusiast - Vincent They are great used cars if they were taken care of. Problem is..many people who purchased them did it just to show off but didn't have the money to maintain them. Then they sell them to someone else who didn't know the cars weren't maintained properly..they break down..and then get a bad reputation for not being reliable or being money pits. I already own a classic S Class 500SEL that I maintain properly..and it runs beautifully. So I made sure the one I just purchased was maintained properly by checking out the records and calling the MB dealership that did the work. Everything checked out and I saved about $75k by buying it slightly used. It turns heads everywhere I go and I know my family is protected by a tank with the best safety equipment out there. I would check one out if you've never given this brand a thought. I assure you it will be safer and better built than a Cadillac or Lincoln. Just stay away from AMG models and those are race cars that require very expensive maintenance.
Wow why buy a new car ? When there are these luxury beautiful low mileage cars available on the market ? At very low 🔅 prices ? Just shop around for these beautiful well maintained cars ? And get a bargain??. And save thousands of dollars? For a good as new vehicle?.
I have the same car and have a million problems expensive problems not even at 90,000 miles
Wow. Thinking of getting one
I'm thinking of purchasing one of this vehicles this weekend a 2013 168k anything I should know before considering buying one of these?is the 2014 better?
@@chavelobustamante4640 did you end up getting one ?
@@mk3mo578 right
This looks like the base model aka livery package XTS, M.S.R.P on it $46k, fully loaded would be in the 60k range and it has a really bad residual, makes for horrible lease Probably used for limo service. I work for a Cadillac store so the only time we see that type of mileage on the Escalade or the XTS it’s been used for limo service. The current flagship Cadillac is the CT6. Let me know if you got anymore questions
Do u recommend xts or ct6
The CT6 is a better car over all. It’s all of the XTS’s capabilities and more, the lease on them are great. It’s a better buy in my opinion
@@jayemejuru9856 thx bro
Papa Shango not a problem, the CT6 got a refresh for 2019 too so it looks even nicer than it did between 2016-18. Check it out when you get a chance. It comes in different trims. If you’re ever in the market for one, let me know before you go to your local dealership and I’ll tell you what the deal on it should be
@@jayemejuru9856 just found out they both going to be discontinued 😡
Probably salvage!
212,000 miles? rock chips all in the front end? curbed rims? even that’s not worth 8500
60000 for 200000 miles? no i would not buy it u less it comes with a brand new car
lmao ... I'm surprised it made to 200k miles. $8500 for it? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaa ... I wouldn't give you squat for it. That thing is ready for the crusher.
I've got one of these pieces of crap after 100000 miles they are a money pit. I'm at 160,000 miles and it's costing me thousands to keep it running. I should have got rid of it two years ago what's good when the price of cars was twice the Blue book value. I will never buy another GM product.
Does it really matter if there is highway or Street or both it's got over 200,000 miles stay away why do you think they're selling it
It matters a lot. Stop and go traffic is much worse for the car than highway driving.
I guess it matters to certain people I don't see the reason for anybody to buy a car with 200,000 miles on it unless you just buying it for a year or two to teach your kids to drive
Papi Chulo if a 2008 Cadillac CTS with 150k miles not a good buy
@@papichulo7757 What do you mean you don't see the reason for buying this car? Because not everybody has $60k to buy a car..but still want a nice car. And even people who can afford this car new want to save money and avoid the depreciation ALL new cars get right after you buy it new. Many people keep their cars forever..with over 200k, 300k, or more thousand miles on them. As long as you take care of the car with regular maintenance and fix what needs to be broken almost ANY car can easily reach 500k or more miles and be just fine. Change your name to Papi Pendejo..lol.
Highway miles are 10% wear n tear of city miles ,but knowing forsure it's mainly highway miles is tricky ,the wear on that brake pedal suggests not mainly highway miles ,unless stuck in stop n go traffic lololooloololo
Don’t care how much sales experience you have. Anyone that has half a brain knows not to pay more than $1500 for a car like that with over 200k miles on it. RIP OFF 😂
too many miles
I guess this was a taxi car.
maybe so. Someone might of used it as a Uber car. those miles were really high for just the average person to own it.
@@1060michaelg What is the FL Pill Mill Express?
@@Nightbird. NIghtbird--- That was what they called the droves of people who would drive down to Florida from Ohio and VA, and other states to get large quantities of pain meds from "Pain Clinics". In Pinellas and Dade and Broward counties especially these clinics were places where doctors (not infrequently immigrant docs looking to make bank fast...but not just) would give, for a price, hundreds of pills at a time. These "patients" would then go back up North and sell these pills. Pill mills are now all but shut down in these places and in fact has swung so far the other way people in pain can't get the relief they need. Hope that explains it. Actually, It is an out of place comment so I am going to remove it. Thanks.
@@1060michaelg Thanks for the explanation! Actually..I don't think your comment was out of place at all..especially since this really happened and it would indeed explain high highway miles on a car..but not necessarily this one. And as you said..it would also explain why people now have such a hard time getting pain meds when they need them. I remember after waking up from having had sinus surgery..the pain in my head was absolutely brutal. And my doctor only gave me 5 days worth of pain meds and I literally had to beg his nurse to give me more..which he reluctantly did but only half the strength and 3 days worth -absolutely ridiculous. The majority shouldn't have to suffer for the few..yet this is America today. It's no wonder so many American's who live with chronic pain are moving to expat communities in Mexico where you can get these pain meds easily on corner drugstores with no prescription needed and at cheap prices..plus enjoy Universal healthcare, cheap rent and housing prices and cheap everything else. Thanks for the info..you taught me something today!
@@Nightbird. Thanks for that response! You summed up the situation on the ground in America perfectly. Sorry you had to suffer because the authorities have thrown the proverbial baby out with the bathwater. I am a chronic pain patient who is now being tapered down after many years on these meds. At least I was not cut off instantly like so many of these poor people I read about...it is a national disgrace.
Yes, in Mexico they used to have "Codeineetas"--- tubes of small codeine pills w/out an RX. From what you've said this is still the case. Meanwhile in the USA the specter of prohibition hangs in the air. We can only hope that voices of sanity prevail in the end...but the voices have to be RAISED first, right?
I don't know if you've ever read William S. Burroughs, but in his collected letters to Allen Ginsburg he wrote of the codeine pills available in the pharmacias without need of a prescription. You might enjoy that book.
A real pleasure hearing from you, someone who knows what time it is and intelligent as well. Hope to hear from you again, Nightbird.
Dude,it's gonna be crashed before...
What do you mean its going to be crashed before Jerome John?
@@CarolinaCarVideos I mean I reckon it probably had been crashed before,because the price is way too low...
Because my 2015 xts cost approximately 68k bucks....
@@jeromejohn9087 Not crashed..depreciation. You can find a ton of these with over 100k miles on them for about 10 grand today. High mileage will kill ANY car when it comes to cost. Which is why it's smarter buy a slightly used car and save all that money.
This is a car the the Black church pastor would buy! 8500 more worth 1200

Never buy a Cadillac with 200k miles
Depends on how well it was taken care of. I got a CTS Premium with 189k miles no issues. Just keep up with maintenance.
That goes for any car brand. It really comes down to what the previous owner did maintenance wise
Cadillacs look good but all the engines are ASS especially with 200k miles, it's going to forever have something expensive to fix believe me. I'm going to buy a Lexus and dumping the Cadillac.
Dude any car with 200k miles on it will eventually have to get something fixed depending on what the previous owner did. U might want to buy a brand new car instead of a used car
More expensive to maintain than an S-Class and I’m not exaggerating. These cars will nickel and dime you to death over the most ridiculous, petty problems that come down to just bad engineering from GM and on their flagship luxury sedan!! For example; I purchased my grandmother a 2014 XTS platinum AWD with 68k miles. One day later the car blew a left front turn signal bulb. I went to replace it and noticed the socket was melted around the contacts for the bulb. A quick call to the dealer. A Cadillac TSB identified this as a “common problem” however no recall was issued. The left HID headlamp gets so hot it melts the turn signal bulb socket, which shorts out the turn signal itself. How to replace it: the socket is not available to purchase by itself, and good luck, finding one in pick and pull parts because they are all gone as these were frequently purchased by livery companies and I’m guessing that’s where this clean example in the video was at some point in its history.
In order to really fix the problem you have to replace the entire left headlamp assembly, which in 2018 was $1788!! Needless to say the lest front indicator light in my grandmother’s is still out…From the puddle light lenses falling out from underneath the mirrors to really ridiculous items, such as the suspension and breaking components for this vehicle being astronomically overpriced, even Advanced Auto Parts wanted $97 for a washer fluid reservoir cap😂 These late model Cadillacs will nickel and dime you to DEATH!! buyer beware they are cheap for a reason regardless of the mileage maintenance, or vehicle history. and if you just cannot live without an XTS, SRX, really all excluding the Escalade, I’d highly suggest an aftermarket warranty with a deductible set at something you can afford on a very frequent basis…
