My Ideal Cadillac Lineup (2nd Ed.) Update 6


Standard of the World
2010 Lineup

A few of the many highlight goodies offered:
•Ultra8, Ultra10, and Ultra12 engines are a new engine exclusive to Cadillac. Quick-revving, high RPM, smooth and refined, fuel-efficient, and powerful with an astoundingly great sound.
•All Cadillacs recieve Direct Injection.
•Transmissions are 8-speed dual-clutch manumatics that shift within one 800ths of a second from a tap of the paddle shifters as well as being able to shift using the shifter in manumatic mode, or 7-speed manuals. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•All engines (LS-series aside) used in Cadillacs are DOHC (Dual Overhead Cam) design with AVVTDL (Advanced Variable Valve Timing, Duration, and Lift) technology on both intake and exhaust.
•CPIS - Cadillac Personal Identification System. You can speak into the key fob your seat position. It will identify by your voice and will adjust your seating presets, including the temperature of the seat. ON VIP, Sixty Special, LaSalle, Fleetwood, El Dorado, AND Sixteen ONLY.
•CIC - Cadillac Infotainment Center. Voice-activated. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•CCAS System - Cadillac Complete Adjust Suspension. Instead of having 3 buttons (Comfort, Middle, Sport) as the competition does, this system takes it even further. On the CIC screen, you can adjust the suspension to be firmer or softer along a bar. You may also set it to what is called the "Perfect" setting, which will keep the car completely level while going around corners and bumps alike. Suspension adjusted to the changing road conditions every 800ths of a second. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•CPES - Cadillac Personal Entertainment System. Each rearseat gets its own screen (for DVD's and navigation to see where they are) as well as radio/CD player that also has 8 400 GB harddrivers (can install upto 16 more) for MP3, etc that can be setup for accounts for different people. Also, each radio/CD/screen gets its own Bose noice-reducing headphones. CPES is set up so that if any one of the seats - front or back - are not tuned to the same station or same DVD, the minority would be required to use their headphones. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•CPCS - Cadillac Personal Climate System. Each person is able to have their own climate, adjusting the temp to what they want on them. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Heated/Cooled, massaging, and adjustable seats/headrest. Can be set to certain temp, and depending on surface temp on the seats, it'll warm up or cool off to the perfect temp. Also, small round pieces inside the seat roughly an inch and a half in diameter fill the seat, and each one has the ability to heat up or cool off so that the entire seat is the perfect temp, not just a certain spot. You can also adjust the firmness of the seats as well as where to add or subtract support at. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Rear adjustable seats. In the rear, you can have the seats lean back, raise, lower, and if the vehicle is equipped with the footrest, kick back with your legs in the air. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•CVDS - Cadillac Virtual Driver System. The computer is able to recognize speedlimits, and should the system be turned on, it would drive the speedlimit posted. It also will come to a complete stop should it recognize a red or yellow light, or a stop sign. It also uses laser technology to travel at a certain distance from the car infront of it. Should the car speed up, it will speed it - until it reaches the speedlimit. Should it slow, or come to a stop, the Cadillac will do so as well. It also recognizes the lines on a road, and thus, using that knowledge, will steer its self. NOTE: This is NOT to completely replace driver! Rather, a more advanced cruise control. ON Sixty Special, El Dorado, LaSalle, AND Sixteen ONLY.
•CSS - Cadillac Stability System. Cadillac's version of StabiliTrak. Settings are 'Safe', 'Spirited', 'Track', and 'Off'. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Eighteen speakers upgradable to twenty six on four+ seaters. Ten speakers upgradable to eighteen speakers on two seaters. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Dual-Beam HID Projectors. Two low-beam projectors per headlight (four total). The bottom of the two (stacked-style like current headlights) swivals during turning. Upon activating highbeams, a third HID (not-projector) light below the two projectors comes on. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Heated and cooled steering wheel and armrests. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Heated mirrors, lights, and windows. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Ambient lighting throughout cabin. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Heated, cooled and massaging footrests. ON Sixty Special, LaSalle, El Dorado, AND Sixteen ONLY.
•WiFi enabled. ON VIP, Sixty Special, LaSalle, El Dorado, AND Sixteen ONLY.
•Autodimming mirrors will cut down on the glare from reflections, lights, and the sun. ON ALL CADILLACS.
•Autodimming windows target areas of extreme brightness, be it from reflections, the sun, lights, or anything else. ON VIP, Sixty Special, LaSalle, El Dorado, AND Sixteen ONLY.
•Autotint windows allow you to adjust the window tinting to whatever percentage you want it to be, whenever you please. ON Sixteen ONLY.
•Carry out a deal with an outside tuner company such as Mallet or Lingenfelter.
Much more!
