Filmed this at the New York auto show. Would rather have silver rims but the graphite was ok.

Yeah I like silver rims better too. Nice car though!

Just found Cadillac video explaining all the features

I picked up my Black Diamond Coupe last week -- I can not say how much I enjoy this car!

I did not realize how much attention this car gets on the road and when ever I stop (I had the dealer remove the external V emblems to draw less attention to the car, but that does not seem to matter) -- folks come up to me almost every time asking about the car or commenting on how good it looks. Like most of the videos discuss or demonstrate it has power at every speed just press the gas a little and you are gone.

Congrats on the Black Diamond. Most Cadillac people will know what it is just by the color. Having the V removed is probably a bad idea for when you are going to resell it.

You are right about the attention it brings. At the NY auto show I took about 500 pics and not one had just the car, there was always someone else in the shot. Upload some of your pics for us to enjoy.

I hear you -- I kept the V's so I have them and the dealer assured me that I could have new V emblems put on the car when and if I wanted them back. We will see. I will send pictures when I get in my new plates.

Most of the people that notice the car do not seem to be Cadillac drivers -- they are BMW, Mercedes, Mustang, Camaro and Corvette drivers.

As a matter of fact yesterday I had a BMW 3 series convertible driver in front of me crank his head 180 degrees (while driving) to look at the V - I slowed down so he had to turn and face the road so he did not kill someone.

That is funny and so good to see all at the same time. We have a place here where you can add your own pictures. Its under community > Albums on the top nav bar. I hope you get to upload some.
