Not sure how I feel about that emblem though.

I hope they give the interior a little more "subtle". If they do, I will own one. What a fantastic car otherwise!

I think the emblem works. It definitely draws my attention when I'm looking at any other part of the car, because out of the corner of my eye it is not immediately recognizable. So I keep coming back to the emblem, which once I look at, I immediately recognize as Cadillac.

I like it.

Wasn't expecting a new front end, but I guess, in method, they took a page out of Volvo's book (in this case, a refresh that's just about as different to the current ATS as the 2014 S60 is to the pre-facelifted S60), but went further with a new bodystyle altogether, too.

I wonder if they'll show the sedan with this new look, too.

I had a feeling that it'd look somewhat odd without the round laurels to highlight the badge by providing contrast to the grille's edges (Isn't the grille just a silhouette of the logo anyway?). This is going to take some getting used to, but I feel like it'd look a lot better with a grille like the one on the Elmiraj.

Front-engine, Rear Drive, 2 door Cadillac, 3200ish lbs, 300 HP? This is what I've been waiting Cadillac to build for YEARS. Now they just need a V-sport version with the Twin Turbo V6 from the CTS.

More pics.

I really like the subtle fins and the nearly B pillar-less look.

my honest 1st reaction was...an xts coupe? really? i feel like caddys are much less edgy and distinct since they mellowed "art & science"

some say there's no such thing as love on first sight. well this proves you wrong people! This is one of the best looking cars I have ever seen.
No, I'm not exaggerating. This thing is downright beautiful!

Maybe my military background is subconsciously guiding my opinion, but I will truly miss the wreath. In the military, you can tell the experise of an individual by the accessories on their occupation badge - no accessories: basic, a star on top: senior, a star and wreath: master! The wreath is the marque of the highest level training, experience, and expertise... a fitting addition for the top of the line GM vehicles.

On a personal note, What an I going to do with my ELWOOD Emblem overlays now?

I'm really sad that a month ago I got a 4 door one.

What happened to the Miraj (or however they spelled it). I have to say, that concept wasn't my thing in photos, but when I saw it in person, I fell in love. The slab sides, puller less windows, and simple but gorgeous design made for soooooo much want.
