Default WOW, could this be the V3?

Found this pic looking through the interweb. Had to post for comments. This think looks like a Lambo eater.

from 2002:

The Cadillac Cien was a concept car created by Cadillac and unveiled at the 2002 Detroit Auto Show to celebrate Cadillac's 100th anniversary ("cien" is Spanish for one hundred, which compares the Buick Centieme). It was designed by Simon ***[1] and was featured in the 2005 film The Island.

The Cadillac Cien had a longitudinally mounted 60-degree, 7.5-liter V-12 which produced 950 hp (708 kW) and 950 lb·ft (1,288 N·m) of torque. This experimental engine featured direct injection and Displacement on Demand, which allowed the engine to run on only six or fewer cylinders under light load. The Cien was designed at SRT[disambiguation needed ]. The Cien's monocoque chassis and body are made of carbon fiber composite [2] and its design was inspired by the F-22 Raptor.[3]

It was used in the island. For being a ten year old design it still looks like it could have just come out last week. If they just changed the grill to the v mesh style, it could come out when the corvette goes mid engine, if they do it on the C8. Id be inline wishing to buy.

I think it may have been the concept... that they used... in The Island... which starred Ewan Mcgregor... and also starred that Cadillac concept.
