there are a lot of concept features on this car and with that kind of car i am usually disappointed with the production results (see genesis coupe) but this shape has so much right that the details aren't going to matter much. I just hope and pray that interior is half as good.

A little bit of A5 in there but otherwise a very good (and hopefully) closer-to-production type car than the it's bigger design exercise brother.

So the wreath is gone?

Not gone, but integrated. What I was trying to do was wrap silver or black around the crest and stretch it, I just am not a designer nor a graphics person, so I sucked at my attempts - my vision I think was spot on. Here is the logo close up from Twitter:

Hey, I didn't mean it in a mean way. :P

Also, I'm sure you look quite dapper.

Haha thanks? Its just hipster usually comes with a negative connotation.

It's barely there. I took this off the GM Media site.

Still of the interior

Yeah, I think it's gone. Or rather melted into the logo like a T-1001 from Terminator.

I think the wreath is holding Cadillac back. I mean it.

Totally! They nailed it.

That's an interesting thought, maybe the wreath is symbolically embodied in the chrome trim that wraps around the bottom of the grille and down the sides of the car.

I think you may be onto something.

Lol These comments made me have to go back and look at what he was wearing. Then I noticed....pants that are too short with sneakers. Wtf

Stupid name.

Beautiful car, it addressed all but one complaint I had against the Ciel and improved it everywhere.

Thats all the rage right now.

Incase you were curious, these images were brought to you by Everything & Some and Fastbikesandtoomuchcoffee . Both are tumblr's that have some pretty photos of cars.

to be fair, that concept never had a snowballs chance in hell. its a mainstream family sedan...most families have heads and need to see the road.

I've only liked the interior so far. And what's this? Another interior where the rear seats can only be used for legless children.

Chevy doesn't always deliver from concept car to production, but Cadillac has an excellent track record of bringing their concept cars to life in a way that is very much true to their originals. Look no further that the XTS Platinum, the Converj, the Provoq, and the CTS coupe concept. Granted the Ciel, Elmiraj, and Mystery Caddy are meant to show the future of Cadillac design, where as the others represented upcoming models in the near future.

Not to be nitpicky, but this is about 200 lbs lighter than a CTS-V (if their 'approximate' weight is correct), not heavier.

Thanks John. Not nitpicky at all. I like it when people point out errors. It's all about getting it right :)

Not sure where I pulled a 3,800lb weight for the CTS-V. I've owned two CTS-Vs myself (Gen 1 and Gen 2) so you'd think this was something I would know. I'm updated the post. Thanks again!

Nah, they'd fit until they got too big for this. That's when you know they are old enough to remove their legs.

It's a fine looking machine. I currently drive a BMW Alpina B7 and would seriously consider trading it in for the Elmiraj. Is there a 4 door model in the foreseeable future?

They (Cadillac) haven't confirmed this as a production car, so I doubt we'll know anything of other models until they make that call.
