This last picture is me trying to be a car ad photog.

That's one sweet automobile. I'm convinced they have another hit. Now they need to use the same approach to bring the DTS to a competitive position.

[Intrepidation]

I wonder why a tail light is missing?

[HarleyEarl]

Really appreciate all the photos of this great looking car. Thanks.

Cadillac is getting closrer to that all-off-one-piece look.

Looks good up close and from a distance.

And seems to look good in any color.

I'm so grateful living in an area where front licence plates are not requried.

Cars seem to look so much better here.

The front plate, base wheels, and non-chrome foglight surround really kill an otherwise gorgeous car.

Well when you buy YOURS, don't get it that way. Simple.

[Northstar]

It looks awesome, thanks for the pics, Ted. I think they need to ditch the base wheels and give all models chrome fog light surrounds, like empowah said. There's not much you can do about the front plate.

... and give the base model two tail lights.....

[jlbunting]

great pictures.

Great pics, but my question is why are they in Oshawa in such numbers. They are not being built there and there are far to many of them there to be part of the Product Evaluation Program (PEP).

The fenced in ones (including the one with a missing tailight) where at the GM Regional Engineering Centre. Final tweaking?

Agreed.

I fall more and more in love with this car every time I see a photo...perfect.

Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thank you for the photos Ted.. I must say that is an impressive car. I like the back of the car. There is something very Eldorado or historical Cadillac about it. Nice photos.

[jbartley]

very nice. i wish the fog light assembly had a clear cover, that's going to be a bitch to keep clean.

God how I miss the Eldorado, there was just something about that car that I just loved. I think it was the shape of it, that it looked like the late 60's version. I find myself still admiring it when I see one cross my path.

That is why I bought the cheaper version called "Toronado" by Oldsmobile.

The base wheels and gray plastic cover instead of fog lights is really bad. They shouldn't even make that model, it looks like a renal. This car should have a $1000 higher base price, so they can make them all look good. I like the overall look of the loaded model, but the trunk still looks a bit high and bulky to me.

[jbartley]

has everyone been over to autospies and seen the inside of the CTS in the dark? the ambient and fiber-optic lighting is AWWWWWEEESOMMEEEEE.

I hear that with the new-design Alberta license plates, that we'll be going back to front plates as well actually.

[Robert Hall]

Yeah, front plates ruin the looks of a lot of cars...unfortunately, I think more states use 2 that those that use 1...and of the states I would consider living, I can only think of two that use 1.

[rueben44]

For some reason I thought I would not like this car in black….I was wrong. I mean it is just perfection. Then I see it in that beautiful champagne color and wowwy!
