Because they knew that you wouldn't like it that way.

Do you honestly think that there's an answer to that question? They don't make it ugly. They make it. Whether it's ugly or not is up to each individual customer's creative side. :) I think it's nice.

Yeah, i see one or two a week. A buddy of mine works for GM and got to test drive it. He said it was underpowered for what they are trying to market it as.

What ARE they trying to market it as? A luxury roadster. It's going to be Cadillac's flagship. I dunno what SE MI marketing looks like, but I do national marketing for GM. Nationally, it's a luxury roadster with more power than regular Cadillacs. I dunno. I LOVE the way it looks. It's the only car that I would buy simply for looks and not functionality.

Well, that would explain your singleminded bias towards GM products and your instant attacks towards those that don't harbor the same ammount of love for said products.

lol, famous last words.

Seriously, you don't want to move here just to see a production car zipping around every now and then...I personally like SE Michigan, but most people hate it as there's nothing to do. Think twice. ;)
