cien production

http://www.autotechdaily.com/pdfs/T01-17-02.pdf



read that, if your 2 lazy it says a week after the 02 auto show cadillac got 10 orders for the v12 in the cien and it says it would cost like $250,000 but that excellent compared to the enzo's $650,000 price tage and less bhp and prob weighs more :naughty: :feedback:

i think that $250,000 is a rediculous price for any NEW car, especially when you consider it probably did not cost over $10,000 to make. i could possibly see paying that kind of money for an ultra rare classic, but then i only paid $35,000 for my 1933 Cadillac V16 convertible coupe, and it was frame - off restored. not to mention it is quite a rare car, and with the overdrive unit i installed is not at all slow. (although it will never compare with the speed of any modern supercar)

i know what your talkin about but i certainly costs more that 10000 to make the engine alone prob costs more than that but still i hope it comes into production pepole say cadillac says know but were did they here that i dont think they no what they're talkin about when like nine magazines and other stuff say yes or a car like it

argh i posted my last thing like a month ago and i have gotten no reply arnt any cadillac fans interested in a supercar finally after like 30 years of boring cadillacs and now there is a chance that there will be a ultra luxury supercar the first in gm's history cept mybe the 02-03 z06 but thats not ultra luxury and if your gonna reply to this dont be all pissy because im complaining i just want to talk to someone about the cien becoming a production car it is a big thing and when i go to the DC auto show in like a week maybe i can find out but if anyone knows anything tell me and i know some people are like there arnt any production plans they are wrong the majority of mag's say it could happen or something like it in like 05 or 06 or something and oh god! i hope it does
i nedd something and bob lutz really likes this car and wants it to happen and why not evry other forum on other websites including this one people are saying things like '' thats the best looking car iv ever seen'' and ''oh man they have to build it'' plus if bob lutz likes this car i think he will make it happen even in limeted numbers but at least cadillac fans like me can say if gm wanted to they could build a car that would kill the enzo and they just might :attention

all the head guys at gm say if cars like the xlr srx and cts do well the cien will definitely have a future here is the quote-



The obvious next question is what about the Cien? Cadillac is undergoing a desperately needed image makeover, one that began with the launch of the second-generation Escalade SUV, and which kicks into high gear next year with the debut of the CTS, the replacement for the Catera. By 2003, Cadillac plans to roll out a production version of the Evoq roadster that will be dubbed the XLR. GM officials hope that by then the once-dominant division will regain some of its standing with affluent U.S. buyers.

If that happens, Cien definitely has a future, albeit an expensive one. Cox describes his design as a "very high-end vehicle." That's a clear understatement. It would almost certainly carry a price tag upward of $250,000, if it sees production.

For the money, a buyer would get a stellar list of high-tech hardware. But more importantly, he would be a player among the automotive world's elite--drivers of the Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Aston Martin. And that, sports fans, might just be worth the price of admission.
