Cadillac’s new crest now debuts with its wreath removed, bearing only the stylized coat-of-arms of Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, eighteenth-century founder of Detroit. The new shield is simpler, wider, ready to go into battle against the blue-and-white roundel of BMW,
To me, it looks like the emblem was cut and pasted into paint, then re-sized. Almost looks pixilated to me and stretched too wide without being tall enough.
I don't really care. It's an emblem.
It is priced very attractively, I think. $2,200 for AWD is a decent 'upgrade' and the 'base' engine seems to be more than up to the task. Impressive numbers from a 2.0T, though I'd like to see a dyno chart before I give my final thought. I know GM put a lot of R&D into their 2.0T and I think it shows.
The interior LOOKS and feels premium to me, but I still feel cramped inside. That's really the only complaint I could have. I mean, I'd go for the sedan any way, but why bother - the back seat room probably doesn't differ all that much.
Good showing, Caddy.
Oh, and Brendan, as always, incredible writing.
