Cadillac Celestiq

Nice to see in John's video, their using Eero Saarinen's G.M. Technical Center as an advertising backdrop. It was absolute cutting-edge style when opened in 1956, and remains classic American Moderne to this day.

LOL! Yes! It always take a while for ugly cars to become classics!

@charles-rockett Yes indeed. For fun, GOOGLE  Harley Earl's GM TC office (assuming you've never seen it ).  1956-State-Of-The-Art! 😎

@jkuvakas Not always. 🙄  Perhaps we need to wait a bit more.... 🙄 🙄 😀 😀 😏 

@chris Thanks ! I will.

@jkuvakas I've yet to add an Edsel to my model car collection !

@chris. this one?

@chris,  yup!

@jkuvakas I think that's part of it.... I seem to recall seeing more streamline  stainless (or brightwork  ) and lots of hide-away-gadgets.  And of course, he had one of the best views of the moat a.k.a. lakes.  The fact all that water was incorporated into the design theme is (was ), in itself, a monumental architectural achievement.

@chris,  yup!

HA!

Yeah, you got me there!  I can still VIVIDLY recall GM-Pontiac PR folks trying (in vain ) to explain why sales just haven't, "...caught on yet."   They unconvincingly attempted to explain away  every dismal sales fact, but never once uttered the word, "ugly." 😏 😏
