Cadillac Knows What The Kids Want

Yeah, yeah, we know… wood and beige leather are out, edgy and blacked-out are in. But did anyone expect that these hot, youthful trends would give rise to a murdered-out factory special Cadillac CTS-V Coupe? Now, more than ever, this thing is “ Darth Vader meets Don Draper.”

    Any particular reason __why__ "the kids" love this and other rolling coal bins, inside and out? Do they think black makes them "invisible"? One thing for sure - the S.Californians driving these will be roasting in the summer.

      I prefer a black interior over any other color, apparently many people don't. What's this nonsense about being "invisible"? I have to say that I never liked Cadillacs at all until recently. If I had the cash, I would have one of these. Probably not in black though. I just traded a black car in.

    Is it just me or does this look like the cheap "Bass Boat" metallic paint that people paint the ghetto cruisers that drive around Houston.

    "Creative Design" by "Rich Pinto"?

    That car suits the targeted demographic just as it should. Though, I will say the murdered look was already old in '08. Next up is the "snowed in", all white everything, powder-coated white rims, but with a navy pinstripe seat. Just check out the white line in Houston. Why didn't they do this to the DTS back in the day?
