The big surprise of Pebble Beach might be this concept you see right here. The Cadillac Elmiraj is intended to preview a possible Cadillac flagship, while drawing on past models like the 1967 Eldorado.
Sporting a 4.5L twin-turbo V8 making 500 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, the Elmiraj also wears 22-inch wheels and monobloc brake calipers. The 2+2 layout harkens back to the coupes of yesteryear, but the rest of the interior is decidedly modern, with Brazilian rosewood featuring prominently throughout the cabin. Outside, the VSport badge from the CTS is present, but the wreath appears to be gone from the Cadillac badge.

- Varezhka Maybe the volume was not big enough to really matter anyways, but losing a “passenger car” for a mostly “light truck” line-up should help Subaru with their CAFE numbers too.
- Varezhka For this category my car of choice would be the CX-50. But between the two cars listed I’d select the RAV4 over CR-V. I’ve always preferred NA over small turbos and for hybrids THS’ longer history shows in its refinement.
- AZFelix I would suggest a variation on the 'fcuk, marry, kill' game using 'track, buy, lease' with three similar automotive selections.
- Formula m For the gas versions I like the Honda CRV. Haven’t driven the hybrids yet.
- SCE to AUX All that lift makes for an easy rollover of your $70k truck.

Lets see. Take an Audi A5. Slap on a Mazda front end. Let Lincon do the back. Give it cheap fake vents and chrome. Done.
That car is the sex... love it. But does GM have the balls to build it?
