the xts is not the sixteen...and this proves my point.....in design..WE wanted to do the sixteen, WE wanted a proper rearwheel drive flagship, and WE proposed a final design... and guess what? it was shot down...why because the beancounters and people up in the cadillac mangament positions looked at the books, looked at the profit sheets and decided a flagship sedan over the epsilon platform (ie the malibu, lacrosse, insignia etc.) would be more profitable...so design took what we were given, and you cant do a rearwheel design over a proportion like that...and so, we have the xts...and in my opinion with what the designers were given (the platform and its frontwheel drive proportion) i think they made a pretty good looking car....whether u like the current design aeshtetic of cadillac is completly subjective.....
