Top Gear Reviews Cadillac Sixteen Concept and Cadillac BLS
I don't know if you guys have seen this yet but the review is awesome and the Jeremy Clarkson even says the car walked all over the bentley that was reviewed earlier in the show! As for the Bls, It's a partial review and it isn't too positive.

Re: Top Gear Reviews Cadillac Sixteen Concept and Cadillac BLS
If Cadillac would build the Cien and Sixteen they'd have folks falling over each other to own one. Those two cars are simply "Oh my God" type cars.

Re: Top Gear Reviews Cadillac Sixteen Concept and Cadillac BLS
I can't believe they actually let him smoke a cee-ga in that. They didn't let him open it up though, the good part.
I still think Cadillac needs to make it

Can you imagine Cadillac selling a mid-engined V12 putting out 750HP!!!! The Corvette people at GM would throw a **************** fit!!! Besides, GM would probably only sell about 100 of those a year, and it would be hard to justify production. They'd most likely contract it out. THough, Aston manages to handbuild low numbers of cars annually... so who knows. It's not like the Cien would be priced below $250K anyways. Sixteen is just not feasible with its size and engine. But it makes for a great show car... and a look into the future.

Re: Top Gear Reviews Cadillac Sixteen Concept and Cadillac BLS
I would NEVER smoke a cigar in a concept car like that. What a retard. Anyway, that car is a beautiful concept.

Re: Top Gear Reviews Cadillac Sixteen Concept and Cadillac BLS
The sixteen is just beautiful. I've seen the video of the BLS before. The two are almost on opposite sides of the spectrum.

Re: Top Gear Reviews Cadillac Sixteen Concept and Cadillac BLS
I was amazed that Jeremy liked the 16 (I think I just felt the planets skip into alignment). So he likes 2 American cars, the 16 and the Ford GT.
