Great; now let's see what they come up with for the V-Series

Yeah... Don't know what city you live in, but it's the same crap in Lisbon...

Congrats!

Yeah. I think the CUV will be the last of the family. My only point with regard to the C-X17 is that it should look more like an Audi Allroad type of vehicle (i.e. a tall station wagon) to distinguish it better from what I'd call a 'regular' CUV like the Range Rover Evoque...

It's family looks IMHO :-P Anyway, the really big news here is that this plaform is going to underpin a 3-Series rival. That's where Jag's aiming for 1st; the CUV if it happens will arrive later on.

Edmunds needs to get their facts straight: Opel Cascada is on Delta like the Astra/Verano, not on Epsilon...

Maybe that's what GM is waiting for: the new small displacement 3-cyl engines... Wondering why the Cascada hasn't turned into a Buick yet, though... It's a no effin' brainer IMHO... Yes, a convertible would be nice to see...Buick has been 4dr only for nearly 15 years..they need something besides sedans and CUVs to spice up their line. And the Adam could give them a neat high style entry model, totally different from the Spark & Sonic across the street at the Chevy dealer. Agreed. Adding a little spice to Buick's lineup would be nice; the Cascada would be an elegant way to do that and the Adam would aim them closer to the Mini crowd than to the Spark crowd.

I do not expect the Cadillac to be radically different here. I do expect the radical changes will be in the Cadillac SUV of the future in the Omega based SUV. It will be more Porsche like is what I am guessing. Sporty but a SUV. Oh... I thought Cadillac was supposed to get a L2XX-based CUV, not an Omega-based product other than the LTS: http://www.autonews.com/assets/PDF/CA79578516.PDF

Have to say that after looking at the pictures, I do wonder how different the Escalade will look like compared to the Denali... Thinner headlamps plus wider grille, CTS-wagon style tail lights, and wheels? Or will body stampings be different as well? I hope it gets a truly unique interior...

Not really digging both of them... Interiors, engines and fold flat 3rd row are the strong points IMHO... Let's see how the Escalade turns out...

Unless SUVs drive profits...

Funny that the BMW logo in front seems to be covered

The only thing lacking, really, is a manual transmission.

414hp on that egg would surely be interesting

Audi's been playing with this idea of ressurecting the Quattro for so long it's not even funny... Just build the f#ck#ng thing!

Good... Lord...

A KERS Corvette?
