The more I personally experience the new stuff coming out of Cadillac, and the more I read about what they have in mind for the future, the more I become convinced that Cadillac will have no problem restoring its storied image over the next decade or so, (provided no major goofs).
Having said that, I think its impossible for Cadillac to ever be exactly what it was in the 50's and 60's, just like there can never be another Elvis. Legend is a one-time deal, or it wouldn't be legend.
I do think, however, that they can recapture their former glory even if they could never recapture their former legend. In that sense, I think Cadillac can be as big and bad as ever. At this rate, it actually seems possible that Cadillac may once again be the name that immediately comes to mind when you're trying to ascribe an ultimate level of achievement to someone or something; for example, "that is the Cadillac of steaks", or "I'm gonna make a ton of money someday and own a mansion and a Cadillac!", etc.
My vote: the best is yet to come.
