Billionaire investment mogul Warren Buffett was so impressed with his new Cadillac that he sent the GM boss a letter praising the company. Buffett sent his daughter to the Cadillac dealership in order to get a good price and was delighted with how she was treated. The car saleswoman, Madison Willers, impressed the Oracle of Omaha so much that Buffett asked that she personally deliver the car to him. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3002836/warren-buffet-cadillac-mary-barra/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3002836/warren-buffet-cadillac-mary-barra/"},"headline":"Warren Buffett Loves His New Cadillac So Much He Wrote Mary Barra a Letter","datePublished":"2014-07-17T21:33:55.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:13:02.734Z","description":"The Oracle of Omaha loved the customer service as much as his new wheels.","url":"https://time.com/3002836/warren-buffet-cadillac-mary-barra/","keywords":["Companies"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Video","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-video/"}],"articleSection":"World","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/world/","name":"World"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/companies/","name":"Companies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3002836/warren-buffet-cadillac-mary-barra/","name":"Warren Buffett Loves His New Cadillac So Much He Wrote Mary Barra a Letter"}}]}] ```
