I saw it at the Auto show, i took pics of the engine, its looks pretty cool but i doubt they will make it.

It's too heavy to be a supercar.

SFDMALEX 01-04-2004 10:34 PM

Are you kidding me? LOL No way its a supercar. Its to heavy, I'm not sure about the power delivery from that engine.... Its a good engineering exercise, but thats it.

It may have the hp necessary to be a super car, but it lacks something that super cars are:
unique designs, excellent engineering and some CLEVER solution. IMO this engine is an attempt to challenge the bugattis and their VW engines.

Sorry, for me it's another desperate move by the americans to reach the almost genius ideas the germans have.

maybe its true but i think that the attempt is good,

It would be an interesting car, but I don't think it was designed to go head to head against the Enzo's and Maclarens. Lets just say, it is a really big, powerful Cadillac.

it falls waaaay short of a supercar. i agree w/ sfdmalex, prolly just an engineering excerise, and agood one at that. also another way to get attention. how many other modern 16 cylinder cars do you know of? :wink: :roll:

corvette97 01-05-2004 03:02 AM

well thats true and the idea of a 16cyl, its super stupid, or maybe if you are gonna stop on each gas station on the way? lol :mrgreen:

X-ale 01-05-2004 03:03 AM

i think it aims more at the Bentley continental gt, there ya go

snacky 01-05-2004 03:07 AM

16 cyls? GM must think we're gonna invade iraq or something, oh wait, we did. next target saudi arabia and then we're onto 20 cyls. :mrgreen:

Supercar? LOL!

Cadillac isn't going to build them. They are gonna be sticking the engine in the new Escalade and the SRX though. Of course they are optional.

blah 01-05-2004 06:51 AM

yea for only a extra 10,grand we can add more plastic to your already plastic cadillac. God GM disguist me, the caddys are seriously, and EXTREMLY over priced.
