    Looks as though Caddy is fully embracing a new design language, a return to names vs. alpha numerics, and electrification. I've always loved the Caddy concepts, and the media present (Road & Track, Car & Driver, Peter Lorenzo, etc) at GM's global ev day seems to be quite impressed with what were apparently two extraordinary close to production vehicles; a sedan and suv. A very near future hand-built-halo and technology tour de force Cadillac? Sounds promising, anyway.

    I had a big briefcase kind of thing that held around forty Matchbox Cars. Every slot was full. All the cool ones from about 1966 to 1971.

    Lost it in a move somehow. The Ford GT was my favorite. :)

    Here is a retake on a golden oldie ad for your amusement and entertainment this dreary morning. Not an endorsement by me- I contend these folks have lost their mojo.

    Yes, it does still work.
    And yes, it’s still ugly.

    I find the use of the entire hood panel as a scoop interesting; pretty meh on the rest.

    not a fan of these pseudo "speedsters". Ferrari's done a couple, Jag & Bentley as well.
    If the DB4 was the "gentleman's express" these are "dilettante's express"...

    I'm not sure that word sees much in use in Gemballa HQ...

    "If less is more, just think about how much more MORE is!" (Or, if you prefer: "there is no kill like overkill")
