I learned that I need to value each day uniquely....you only have so many. time flies...I am 53...will turn 54 in September.

in a tight shirt.. don't forget the tight shirt part ?

Got to get a snow thrower. Shoveling sucks.

Today my father would have been 80 had he lived...I miss him also. Ohhh absolutely. And while we are on the subject of liquid fuels... Everything from railroad locomotives to Jet aircraft to spacecraft to god knows what else...only has a limited ability to be switched over to electric. We will be using liquid fuels and ICE for a LONG time....for the rest of the life of everyone reading this for sure.

Washington DC. Building long gone.

ICE will still he 85 plus percent of cars in 2030.

I can see VWAG building a Bugatti EV to out do Tesla’s new roadster. Something insane with performance like 0-60 in 1 sec and 300mph top speed...

I had a random thought when I saw a Yukon Denali pass me on the opposite side of the street today... I was stunned to realize how phoquing huge that Yukon grill is. Then I started laughing hysterically all by myself thinking about it.

At this point now I will be surprised if there is a nex gen challnger. or maybe it goes back to front drive! R/T! Turismo! GLH! Shelby! The market is not driving these changes, it is outside forces. I like electrics but it is now starting to get forced down our throats. should compete well with the next Camaro! inspired by citation X11! Front drive, electric option and look at the improved visibility! just what everyone is asking for!

Heck...i would even take lovely American Women with Asian iron.

Lovely Asian woman and Cadillacs, What is not to love! Some Day, I want to visit the Tokyo, Seoul and Beijing auto shows.

I usually walk about 5 or 6 miles a day. 100 is a good number for living or driving fast. With luck...I can drive 100 when I am 100.

as long as she aint singing. Moaning is of a different matter altogether...

They make the donor car at Flat Rock but the mods are done by a firm contracted by Ford to make it OEM vehicle.

There have been LOADS of things, even within automobiles, that have been "improved" yet are far worse in actuality.

I meant to type ‘prototype’ instead of ‘concept’ but got distracted and failed to come back to edit.

But.... no "BEAUTIFUL LOVELYS MUSHED TOGETHER" !

Cadillac needs to be Cadillac. Cadillac needs to produce and sell products that are true to its brand's historical image. Cadillac needs to stop trying to sell to every Tom Dick and Harry. Yes, this is volume and volume is good for fast cash. But Cadillac shouldnt be fast cash. That is what Chevrolet and GMC are for. Cadillac also needs to start building those products that make everybody dream. And we know Cadillac still has the brand image to do that just with a handful of concepts they revealed over the last 15 years. And yeah, broken ass cigars shouldnt be buying Cadillacs. This should be Cadillac's internal battle cry plastered on every single Cadillac headquarters wall and their new slogan! For public media advertising, it should be the short version: THIS IS CADILLAC

Perfect car for ocnblu right here: it's green, has utility/cargo space for his Birkenstocks, frisbee & portable cookstove, not to mention the 6.2L Escalade LS engine. It even has a clutch pedal (tho it appears to be wired up under the dash- can't have it all) ~

Well, to me it is a good looking, chunky little useful conveyance. Love the diesel with stick. Europeans still love stick shifts. If you want something more whimsical, choose its sister vehicle, the Citroen Berlingo... Plus, ya gotta know how to switch hands, otherwise certain things get very boring! ?

Nope, loud pipes cost lives, I see more people freak out due to the abusive noise of Harley's and be it pedestrians or drivers, the bikes still get hit. Tuned pipes is different, but the idiot Harley crowd seems to think ear breaking noise is best, must be deaf most of them anyway.

Nope, did not miss that at all, just pointing out a different kind of Demon that has better low center of gravity due to the battery pack in the skateboard concept that should give even better track grip. I see both ICE and EV Demon having a place on the auto lot.

I made some serious changes including daily working out last year as at 51 I thought about all my grandparents who lived into their late 90's, some physically well and some not so. I want to live life to the fullest so that means a nice Cadillac or other luxury activity auto to drive and my being physically fit. Working out means I get to eat bigger variety and drink what I want all in moderation. Rock it! my friends and live a full life.

In my ideal world we would be two teenage boys cruising my old hometown in a Cutty 442 and burning the living PHOKKK out of those old 50 series bias plies on the rear while we were listening to some Rock on the 8 track...

I think were are, or should be, just about done with the EV having to be different just to stand out to tell people you "care" for the environment. EVs are just about getting ready for the big time mainstream spotlight. No need for this weird styling. That was all crap marketing and the folk that bought into that just wanted to pat themselves on the back "for doing the right thing" Poseurs and posturing. All hypocritical.

General Motors has that...in Chevrolet. And if they want, Buick and GMC. Rolls Royce does not have that, nor Bentley. Maybe Cadillac should align themselves closer to Rolls and Bentley? Like how they used to be since day one of their existence up until the 1970s...

This is called Mid-Life Crisis, Buy yourself something special that you desire as you only have about 47 more years to live based on medical of more and more living to 100.

Demon already destroys the P100D. It's done right.

I bet the bulk of these will be in private car service. I would be surprised if any ended up in just normal private ownership service. Thinking on this, I bet they could easily keep this going with a 250-300 production a year. This would truly give special ownership to a conti of this style and build.

Totally agree, when my son was part of the USA Gymnastics program, just way too many competitions across the US, so we always drove everywhere except if on the East Coast. That had me doing between 30-40K miles a year. Once the kids were gone and out of college, dropped to 15K miles a year on average as my wife and I still love road trips.

90? Why is this news????? OH!!!? Because Cadillac publicized that they sold out the 275 CTS-Vs in less than an hour??

Put a plow on the Jeep- push it all onto your neighbor's lawn.

80 was too few; the number should have been at least 800.

Yep; Flat Rock, Michigan.

Getting the kids out of the house (youngest graduates this year from high school!) should drop the #

I put almost 30k a year on my car, almost 100 mile a day commute. Unfortunately, my department doesn't allow working from home even though plenty of days I could do it. No way I could use public transportation either.

I will have put 50K on the Beetle at the 2 year mark....Leasing won't work for me either.

Very cool building!

Amazing level of pride in that building. Optimism. Promise.

Uh-huh; sure.

and it could have duked it out with the ATS for who had less rear seat room.

I love how the owner, to maintain the pride of his or her image debadged it. The truly the finest case of having a sleeper car...when no one know's its a Mercedes... That's a Mercedes? (That's a Buick meme) OHHHHH WOWS.....take my money!

The MB hatches were unbelievably cheap shitboxes too- not un-akin to a Chevette (which was RWD also). MB has a long history trying to introduce a palatable but cheap hatchback shitbox to market :

There shouldnt be ANY Cadillac identity that is as low as the highest Chevy and mid Buick though... If they wanna do an ATS sized Caddy, that is fine. But that ATS sized Caddy better be of high luxury in workmanship, in quality and in price worthy of a Cadillac badge that is on it. Not of workmanship and quality and price of the best Chevy you can buy...but of the best workmanship, quality and HIGH price that is worthy of a Cadillac! That means that there shouldnt be an Impala LTZ on the lot with a Cadillac ATS and the Cadillac ATS is the SAME price of the Impala. I dont care if the Impala is the bigger car therefore the Impala gets to be equal to a Cadillac ATS. BULLSHYTE on THAT! For me and what I care for Cadillac, its that a Cadillac is supposed to be unattainable for the broken cigars. And therefore we fall back to the sales thing again... The Cadillac CUVs and SUVs are selling just fine. Therefore all this banter we are doing is maybe all for nothing!

She maybe fine, but no thanx...let the music be played by musicians worthy of the tune. This is how a REAL rocker chick does AC/DC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sky1tt8vLA

I always hated these. That and the BMW 318ti. I never understood the hate for the Cimarron still in the year 2000s when both BMW and Mercedes stooped to LOWER Cimarron standards and no fallout for BMW and Mercedes yet even in 2019, Cadillac detractors still laugh at Cadillac but those 2 shyteboxes are just brushed under the rug... I HATE that double standard! PS: There is nothing wrong with you liking that Benz. Its just how I feel about Eurosnobs giving Cadillac a hard time. PSS: Those two German cars were not even good on European roads BTW...yet Eurosnobs defended those shytboxes... I still shake my head with disbelief on that!

Nothing to do with Cadillac and GM but... I just felt like quoting that quote. Its something my dad always said. I felt the need to be...my dad just now... And this is just the weirdest shyte ever. As Im here typing this nonsense to you, the TV is on the the movie Walking Tall is playing. Im not really watching it, but then a song comes on... My dad used to sing that all the time... I love you dad! I miss you!

What a trippy bit (the 1986 portion) ~

Coming down heavy again...
