I don't know about that, sounds too much like CTS when you say it, but anything is better than BRX, that just doesn't sound good at all.

The interior is straight of the CTS, which is not a bad thing.

Only a guess, but would the 5 lugs look aesthetically bad originating from the wheel center on a 7 spoke wheel design?

Looks pretty good. I really love how the engineers tried to cover up the sloped roofline in the back by packing the camo with something.
And I don't see pop-out door handles.
Any chance of those making it to production?

This might very well be the car that replaces our BMW X3. I think our lease runs out in 18 months. I think my wife would like this car and she's the one that drives the X3.

Why make this in Mexico? I know for more money but Can't they put this in Lansing and move cheaper cars to RA? This to me would make more sense

This is where the thread dies. We should save discussions about lug nuts for the 15th page of a dying thread.

This thing should be on Torana.

Can't wait for it.

The interior is sexy except for where the left vent meets the silver door trim.

In principle I like integrated tailpipes, but the way these are rounded and juts out below from the rest of the bumper looks odd -- as if it was an afterthought.

I still think the roofline has way too much Vue -- hopefully it'll be less noticeable with the camo removed.

Re: Spied: 2010 Cadillac BRX (the real car, first time ever)

The BRX is going to be really good looking if it's anything like the Provoq. The Provoq was a real looker inside and out and it's good that GM is keeping the production version very close to it. My favorite vehicles as of now are the: CTS, Provoq concept (in production form) and 9-4X (in production form).
