I so want one of these, in a green so dark it's almost black please.

Other than the model name, I love the looks of that Cadillac. Is it a new model for 2012, or a one-of-one?

Pretty F-in cool. I want one too.

I agree with Nando, stupid name

It's still a concept car at this stage, obviously the windshield area would never make production, but I see no reason why the rest couldn't be built.

I really love the razor edge mini fins, the '68 Eldo like taillights, Cadillac has a long history with Pinninfarina in Italy, and the barchetta like lines of chrome around the passenger compartment and down around the trunk is a nice tribute to the famous design house. A little boat

I have seen 2 of these. 1 in a junk yard with no other car within 20 feet of it. I'm trying to remember the 2nd one.

Ahh yes, the Avanti, what a cool vintage ride. A 289 Ford with a paxton supercharged, faster than a scalded cat, Studie swan song. They are still being built today, but for $60,000 , a shadow of it's former self, gaudy interiors.

Ciel means SKY, a name already taken directly by a former Saturn roadster. Also HEAVENLY (nee CIELO) Mi cielo is a term of endearment.

Cielo would be a great name but I'd look for this to re-introduce the Eldorado name if GM has any sense. Cadillac seriously needs to reinfuse their roots.
