cl82 ◊ 2010-10-12 16:29	That's possible indeed, but I thought I had noticed a few differences. For example the mirrors and the shape of both the fender and the bumper. Besides the Caddy seems to be missing both the chromed wheel-arches and the chrome stripe on the side. I was hoping that you or another US-member could identify the car on the third pic. I could be wrong as well, of course.
