Looks like it could also share GTO DNA. Remember they said the next GTO would be lower and wider?
Also, chop some wheelbase off and the proportions look great for a Camaro....

move the cabin forward. atm it doesnt seem like it would have enough room to be a 2+2

XLR-T (for "Top"). This is a serious design exercise that is just plain beautiful, IMHO, and it elicits an emotional reaction (from me, anyway!) I like it a lot!

That definately looks like it could be an updated modern version of a
67-70 eldorado.

Whatever it is its freaking sweet! I thought I heard a while back, that the XV12 was going to be the used in the next Caddy ULS or something! Didn't know they changed it to a V10/LSx based engine. It looks pretty blurry, so you really can't see how many doors it has.

ETC!!! But if that was teh case, that would mess up the E flow of the Lade.
As much as I would like to see the V10 from GM, I think that the V12 Northstar should be used in the ULS. Superhigh technology that really shows the Germans whos boss.....then twin turbo it for good measure! Mmm...ULS-V making 650hp...
This would also be cool if it was a Caddy supercar, soemthing like the MB SLR. Twin turbo V12 making 650hp with 6 or 7spd auto, with customized interior.
Or if this was Caddy's ULS with suicide doors to give it a coupe like design. Northstar V8 Standard with 6spd auto and V12 optional as well as AWD. 18's, 20's, and then 19's and 22's on V12 model. Also, throw that twin turbo V12 idea back in for the V model...
Ok...getting carried away.
