A New Golden Era?
Looking over these fantastic new vehicles that we are being offered, I have to ask a simple question: are we in a new golden era of automotive development?

as long as designers abide by corporate management requirements, we might just be in a new era...

I think that the American Market has finally seen the light and are designing cars that are visually appealing now. . . For the longest time there was just ugly ass cars and trucks.

as long as designers and engineers can work without too many beancounter restrictions, than yes.

No, people have no taste still so good looking cars will be a rarity.
Get them while you can.... Am I the only one who think caddy front ends look hideous? Its like it has down syndrome.... And those stupid long wannabe import headlights suck as well. I like the rest of the lines from the hood and front fenders, but that front end is just getting worse every year.... |

I think we are in a golden era. SleepWarz I have to respectfully disagree. That Cadillac is beautiful.

Totally.
That Cadillac > I've noticed a dramatic change in automotive styling over the past several years; we might just be on the dawn of a new golden age. I haven't been this excited over new cars since... well, damn, I'm Gen Y - NEVER! |

It seems to me that most car manufacturers are going the way of the Prius, visually... cars are getting uglier and uglier. The new Fusion, the new Chevys that are coming out... they are slowly morphing toward the Japanese cars in terms of style. And because of this... I am so thankful that the 2010 Camaro exists...
I'm not sure what that 2nd car is, but it doesn't look too bad. That Caddy looks way too bulky for me though... |

There seems to be a trend towards getting some better looking cars out there. I do like the Caddy, the Mustang, and the Challenger's looks....but the Camaro is the one to get right now. I am afraid that since the government has stepped in that these types of cars will become even more rare....

This is not your grandfather's Cadillac. The V version will have 556hp.
