GM design language
I'm thinking some of the design language from the cts coupe will show up in the c7... any thoughts on that?

if I wanted a Cadillac I would by one, but I do not. If they wanted to make the Cadillac/Corvette they should. As for a C7 Corvette I hope to gawd, short for gawdy, it looks nothing like that!

love to see an agressive c7 that at least borrows the agressive body design and stance with some nicer looking front and rear facias
I've seen this car in person and it's pretty amazing

Yep, the 2002 Cadillac Cien concept. I still like the design - well, certain parts of it at least.
It was used in the 2005 movie, "The Island" as a futuristic 2009 V12 supercar. The engine sounds pretty sweet in the chase scene. Also, if you look closely, you can see it passing a blue C6.

yeah I wasn't really thinking the cien would be pulled up for the c7, thinking more like some the 'design language'. gm has stayed pretty true to the 'designed with only a ruler' as they said on top gear 
be a bit surprised if GM went with the stingray concept. this looks pretty cool as well:

It does look mid engine, and I like the looks, aggressive. I would buy this.
