2007 Cadillac Escalade

Classic Car Addict is excited to present this 2007 Cadillac Escalade AWD for sale in our Mesa, AZ showroom. The Escalade became instantly popular for summer vacations and excursions. Cadillac's big sport-ute, all-new for '07, has been popular since it was introduced in 1998, selling an average of 32,000 a year. The Cadillac Escalade is all-new for 2007. It boasts a smooth-riding new chassis, more power, more luxury features. The styling is bolder than any American sport-utility vehicle in history. In addition to providing five-star comfort, its goal is to be the ultimate symbol of power and achievement, a mansion on wheels. And in that respect, it succeeds. The Cadillac's began life with a base price of $58,125. For that we got a 403-hp, 6.2-liter Vortec V-8; a six-speed heavy-duty automatic; all-wheel drive; automatically adjusting shocks and rear leveling; and 18-inch wheels. The Escalade also had heated front- and second-row bucket seats and a third row for two passengers (a no-cost option for the second row, too; a three-passenger bench is standard). Three months of XM radio came with the Bose audio system, and the power liftgate was wonderfully convenient. Standard safety features included curtain airbags, stability control, rear parking assist, and tire-pressure monitors. The Information package, with nav and rearview camera ($2695); a DVD entertainment system ($1295); a sunroof ($995); and the Climate package, adding cooled front seats and a heated steering wheel ($625). The grand total: $66,730 brand new. The Escalade came from the factory in White Diamond, but in 2015 the owner had it professionally painted with Red E (factory Cadillac color); overall the paint is in excellent condition. The Escalade with those meaty shiny 18-inch wheels, gaping side air vents, bold grille and chrome accessorizing the red paint give people something to talk about. If first impressions are everything, Cadillac made the grade. Inside, the Escalade’s statement of luxury and power is as bold as its exterior. From the driver’s seat, the instrument panel is brilliant — royal blue needles float along the gauges. The fit and finish is impeccable, from the sewn seams on the supple leather seats to the Art Deco-inspired analogue clock atop the center stack. Some high-end vehicles favor minimalism; Cadillac adorns its SUV with an abundance of decadent wood trim and aluminum that’s elegant and sophisticated. The tiltable navigation screen — which doubles as the uber-helpful backup camera display. The big Caddy is powered by a new 6.2-litre Vortec V8. And, although the Escalade shares its basic architecture with the equally new Tahoe and Yukon, it gets an exclusive six-speed automatic transmission. Tap your foot on the pedal for smooth, continuous power or lay your foot into the gas and get an explosion of torque (417 pound-foot) and power (403 horses). If you’re considering an Escalade, the price of gas is surely not a problem, its drinking regular petrol, not premium octane. Sport-utility vehicles earn their name because of their awesome utility and the ability to take owners anywhere. Along the way, though, they morphed into suburban status symbols to drive to the shopping mall. The Escalade might be an extravagant ride, but it is a trooper when called on for a getaway.
