I think it looks pretty good and the front end is an improvement to the past 10 years.

The V8 option is also a nice touch. Wonder what kind of HP could be achieved if the car is supercharged. With a S/C'd V8 and the car lowered a couple of inches, you could have a pretty hot muscle car.

Who buys this stuff?


I have always thought that it looked like the designer forgot to finish the bottom of the car.. I hate how it just 'stops' at the bottom and looks incomplete. I love the 8 inch wheel gap too..

i think that we should adopt a new word for torque steer. Lets call it SRT-4 steer.

And yeah GM just can't stop making ugly cars.

Besides the cadillac line, do they make anything worth bringing home??
