Cadillac Elmiraj

A pillarless hardtop grand coupe measuring 205 inches long, the Elmira

A pillarless hardtop grand coupe measuring 205 inches long, the Elmiraj revived a body style abandoned by U.S. makers since the late 1970s. Its 4.5L twin-turbo V8, an expansion of Cadillac's Twin Turbo V6, produced an estimated 500 hp. It rode on 22-inch wheels with ceramic brakes and Cadillac monoblock calipers, previewing the brand's future flagship direction.
