The rear window is split on the door, in theory, could you do a full window in there or no (because the door shape wouldn't allow for it? Or could the chrome trim come back to the pillar and do a solid window? I looked at the CLS and Passat CC and they also have slit windows although the hard window is in the pillar. I know it's nitpicking, just curious how it could look. Would be an awesome car to see in the flesh. It's a shame SEMA is all about Scions and Pony cars, would love to see a show car of this nature.PDALYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08753979974583452048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1783150085729541324.post-5145528377071778202012-10-08T12:03:58.993-04:002012-10-08T12:03:58.993-04:00Re: safety regs- yes, I'd agree that's the...Re: safety regs- yes, I'd agree that's the primary contributing factor, and it seems like there's a much wider scale disconnect than ever before between American exterior design and engineering. Mercedes and BMW's vehicles are living proof that requirements can be met while maintaining desirable proportions. I don't think there's enough product planning or interdisciplinary awareness/communication during development, which results in $55k cars that are the shape of $25k cars.<br /><br />Then again, it may be an antiquated belief that expensive cars should be unusually desirable to look at. I'm sure the XTS is quite comfy inside.JJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08366632521051032017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1783150085729541324.post-77149112243836225312012-10-08T11:31:27.037-04:002012-10-08T11:31:27.037-04:00It's amazing how much longer the wheelbase LOO...It's amazing how much longer the wheelbase LOOKS with those modifications. <br /><br />I haven't liked much that Cadillac's been doing lately. Lots of fat forms and 70's glitter flake paint. That XTS looks like a Chrysler 200 got brand slapped.David Muccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10734936055148945560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1783150085729541324.post-62262023521722862882012-10-08T10:07:28.267-04:002012-10-08T10:07:28.267-04:00I agree completely.
