I would expect a V10 or V12 in a V series Escalade.
I would also expect far better interior choices AND a floor mounted shifter... or at the very least paddle shifter. Otherwise, all you'd have is an overpowered Escalade and no other distinguishing features.

Frankly, what GM would do is drop a big engine, wrap the dash with leather, lower the car by and inch or 2.. and tack on $15K. I sincerely doubt they would do anything else to distinguish it. And that's crap.
