The cladding on the old model was optional.

See? now you guys are acknowledging the incredibly dumb things that GM does, just like I did from the start, yet I don't see anyone bashing you.

It looks like an overinflated RAV4 because that's what it is

That's because his statement wasn't totally overboard like most of yours are regarding Cadillac. BTW Caddy doesn't have to be the Standard of the World anymore. It will ALWAYS be the CADILLAC OF THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY.

Yeah, "CADILLAC OF THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY" = "STYLE, BUT NO SUBSTANCE".

You want substance with no style you can buy a ToyLex vehicle. This is not about the perfect vehicle. Though I must say, the Escalade comes close

In the early 1900's European cars were hand built with custom parts. The parts were not interchangeable. So, if you had a worn out part, you had to take your car to the factory or someone who could then build a custom part to replace the worn part.
 
There were no European cars that could have been taken apart, with two other cars like it, and then, after mixing up the parts, put together three new cars from the parts of the three old cars. However, Ford model A's or T's (not sure which might have been in production) could have done just as well as Cadillac's.

Finally, GM is realizing that the interior DOES matter, even though many loyalists were very slow to admit that the insides were indeed a problem.
 
Looks like a nice ride, I can't see why anyone would buy a current one now.
