Actually, there is a story behind the 140S...

A year or so ago, GM had a big production at the California design studio, showed media a room filled with shelves of concept models, entire Cadillac lineups on some. You could easily make out design proposals for the ATS/CTS and proposals for the RWD flagship sedan and Ciel-ish convertibles.

On one shelf, was a Pontiac concept. It was the 140S...just with Pontiac design cues on it.

Essentially the 140S is a recycled concept. GM apparently thought it was good enough to bring the idea back to life.
