"Hey, check out Cadillac's webpage http://www.cadillac.com/flash.html. They leaked the new XTS."
Me: "Really? You sure it's not just the concept?"
"Yep. Looks like a production XTS, too and not the concept."
Me: "I don't see it."
"Second slot."
Me: "Nope."
"Wow, they fixed that fast."
This is a direct translation of a Gchat exchange that just happened here. For a very brief period, Cadillac's new full-size, front/AW-drive sedan set for an L.A. show debut was front-and-center on Cadillac.com. It's not anymore, but we managed a screengrab which will have to satisfy you until next week.

New design technique. Take current model, attach air hose, sssssss, and presto done.

Am I the only one who thinks it looks like an MKS? Especially the windows and trunk area in this view.

you are correct sir! My instant first impression, except I couldn't remember which alphabet soup Lincoln it was, so I just said, Taurus SHO. I like it, but the C-pillars look kind of big

I like it, except for the front fascia that looks a bit Malibu-ish. So did someone just randomly decide to check out the Caddy site and just coincidentally time it perfectly, or were they somehow tipped off?

Nice car.
Depends on how's the interior and how it drives.

This design language is starting to show it's age. Shouldn't matter though since this car is sold to retirees, housewives, and gangsters. Would like to see something a little revolutionary from cadillac.
