Celica Forums General Discussion General the american dream

not a big fan of american cars AT ALL, but there are a few that can run with the european big dogs. the already mentioned saleen s7, ford gt, mosler mt900, dodge viper...but what i really want to see on the road is the cadillac cien (cadillac currently has no plans to make it)

feature a v12 engine pushing 750 horses.

a pic of the interior...looks neat but doesnt exactly look comfortable if you ask me. but beleive me, i'd live in it if i could own one.

saw at a show last month...check out the brakes:

im liking the cadilac more and more...

the exterior is nice but the interior looks half ass

yeah, concept cars are usually more show than functional.

700+ hp though, it's no bitch!

how about cadillac sixteen with 1000hp?

Thats a shame they won't make it, been keen on American supercars since the S7 showed up. Ah well, who could have afforded one anyhoo?

th eugliest cadi I have ever seen I think out of their new cars

Excluding the rims it's kind of cool. Has the whole bat mobile look to it.

The original caddy though has a damn nice bodystyle.

i'm inlove with it personally. thats one luxury car i wouldnt mind having in my garage.

I think this one is pretty cool. Cadillac Sixteen. Also a concept car.
16 cylinders ! 1,000bhp

its one powerful motha, thats for sure. its torque is also 1000 horses...it could drag a house

looks good...dont kno if id want one tho

that caddy has stock 24 inch rims!...i think its pimp ride

haha just like the old caddies that are pimped out...keep it in the family.

Unique interior, I can't say I am pro American cars, other than Vipers and Corvettes.

European are still the biggest dogs in town though, Lambo, Ferrari & Porsche take it all.

Not sure if Ferrari has a carbon fiber body for any of their cars yet but the Lambo has that wicked dark grey carbon fiber Mercu' and Porsche has the Carrera GT which is only a little bit heavier than a Celica GTS yet it pumps out over 600hp.

i beleive the enzo ferrari uses carbon fiber as well as the ferrari 360 challenge stradale (street legal, but race inspired modena)

there used to be a car called the vector, it was all carbon fiber and titanium with a big ford i think in it, was over 800 hp, and ya did not have to rev the piss out of it to get the power

i was raised to love japanese cars and i will forever love them...

although if i had to choose an american company i'd pick Ford over Chevy because of fords euro cars.

i saw the funniest thing the other day...i was riding along and oh, there this hot asian chick. never would have guessed though--she was in a chevy cavalier

not to stereothype, but i have never EVER seen that before. and it woudlnt surprise me if i never did again.

yes...that is rare lol.

but my cousin owns a ford taurus but she hates it, she bought it because it was cheap not because she liked it. that was the only asian i knew who owned a domestic. now she has a tundra heh

The first 2 pics...wowza!!!

haha yes. the only asians i see that drive domestics are more upper class and they'll own a couple of caddies. some european cars also like bmw & mercedes every now and then.

right...well i have a cousin in merced that has a old school mustang. he loves it just for the sheer power and history. but other than that most asians dont go for any of the new domestics. we get imports from japan or europe. VW and BMW are sick.

can't argue with you there. not a fan of american cars myself. absolutely love european cars..can't afford them though. so i get the next best thing: japanese. (i don't do korean hyundais.)
