Cadillac Ciel Concept

I really like the car. To me it looks kinda like a more smooth phantom and I especially like the hidden door handles. Too bad its only a concept tho and Cadillac will find a way to ruin it.

Well, it is a showcar, but I'm willing to bet that its overall design will lead to a few different conclusions:

1. The styling will directly influence future Cadillacs, most-likely the new flagship that will sit above the XTS that is coming next year

2. The turbocharged V6 will serve as a new top-trim powerplant in the CTS and XTS.

Wow, pure car porn! I love Caddy's current design language which all started with the Cien concept car and this takes it even further.

It has a real Rolls Royce Drophead feel to it and also reminds me of Merc's Ocean Drive concept, love the sharpness of the whole thing but sadly it will probably all be lost in the production models.

Pretty cool design. I hope this design language doesn't sputter out like the last one did.

Too bad about that engine.

It has a real Rolls Royce Drophead feel to it...

This, I can't think of any better compliment than that.

No I think this design styling is even before the cien. If any of you remember that huge I think V16 engine car they made year ago that was really long, this is kinda like that only convertible and more practical. I love the interior of this car too but I'm thinking a real one will definitely be changed to traditional 5 seat design like any car.

The Cadillac Sixteen came out after the Cien.

Though, strictly speaking, the current Cadillac design language does predate the Cien regardless. It actually debuted with the Evoq in 1999.

That is quiet possibly the coolest car in the world.

Until P Diddy gets one.
