I myself love the carbon fiber look as well. I'm glad I chose it.

I have waited for years and this will sound puffed up but, I believe the domestic manufacturer has finally built a european competitive car. I would love to say a better than but that might be a bit much. How do you all like those all chrome 18's?

Chrome Wheels look sweet. They are aftermarket correct, don't quite look like factory?

I have read that there is some custom work involved in installing that grille... can you tell me what it is? Beautiful ride by the way!

Thank you. From what I was told, they have to drill a few additional holes to install the new grille, but it does not void the original warranty. The dealership that I bought my car from said that they have a hard time selling their Cadillacs unless they have the custom grilles installed.

My father's car arrived yesterday, 27 days after the order was placed.

He's out of town, so I took some photos for him. Actually, more than some: 48.

Let's see if I can figure out how to place a few here...

One more:

Sorry about the dirt, had just taken it for a twenty mile drive to verify that it's ready for delivery. Slight feeling of a tire out of balance on the highway at higher speeds, but might have just been V-rated tires + FE2 + expansion joints. Only other issue was barely audible leather on leather or vinyl on vinyl rub when driving over bad roads.

awesome color

Thanks, I hope he likes it, since I suggested it. $995 for gray? And this is dirty with overcast skies.

Wheels are polished, though the difference is marginal when they're dirty and there's not much sun.

A couple more angles...
