Cadillac has had a good
Cadillac has had a good history of building upmarket models of Chevy designs from the CTS-V to the Escalade. And there is good evidence, from the XLR-V to the Cien concept that Cadillac always wanted to offer a premium sports car, and a mid engine supercar as a halo car for the brand. Cadillac clearly wants buyers to compare their cars to those from Mercedes, Audi, BMW and Porsche, but they never succeeded in offering vehicles that compete against cars like the Boxster or Cayenne, or something like the Porsche 911 Turbo, let alone mid-engined exotics like Ferrari or Lamborghini. But the new mid-engined Corvette would be a perfect platform for Cadillac to build a mid engined luxury/performance car on. Especially considering that Cadillac has announced that they are killing off the cool CTS-V and ATS-V, which for me are the most compelling cars in Cadillac line-up today.
So I really hope that this clue and rumor is true.
