Not bad at all, maybe try and shorten the front overhang? Or does it throw the front end off...

So you're going 4 door.
I like the second rendition considerably more....something still looks a little funky (to me).
I think the front end still looks way too short. Too stubby for my tastes.
I kind of like the look you've got going, but IMO, I think it would look better doing a doing a coupe, setting the driver/passenger back farther in the car and using that to extend the front end. Just my

Thermonmermon must be looking for a design job. If only Acura would hire him....

done. lots of little tweaks, as you could see by the overlay above and the resulting "blurred effect". reshading ofthe body panels, esp the rear flare, was a pain in the ass. vents and other things are from scratch.

yup, converj is the original at the top. the overlay of the original and final product is the middle, to note the changes. if you look hard enough, youll notice that all proportions of the car are modified. basically a converj on steroids.

Too bad Caddy didn't use the converj for the CTS coupe body.... Then we would have a production car to 
over.
CTS Coupe is very cool though.
over. CTS Coupe is very cool though.

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
I like it.... Kind of like a poor man's Lambo. If the height of the body would be a little less, from the front of the drivers door back (all the way to the tail), just a little, It would be stellar IMO.
Nice work.
Nice work.

yeah, i gave that a shot. but once you do that, the front hood would look too high. flattening the front hood makes the front end more "car-like" implying that it is front engine....so i nixxed that idea.

The side vents give it a "supercar" style look.....

Love the render Thermon. Hope you don't mind I played around with a little PS and made your concept into a roadster. Anyway you slice it (coupe, targa, roadster), this would be a great looking Caddy...

type34, a thermonmermon concept. haha! what kind of font is that? it looks cool. actually, it reminds me of the F.H.E. or whatever network used to do Gumby and TMNT in the late 80s.
two questions: did you paste the top half of a vert windsheild? and why the telescopic mirrors? also, the seats are more staggered than the roll bars (i know the roll bars are closer to each other than the seats, but, ya know...)

Obviously the rear deck is not as clean as I'd like, but again this was a quick render...

Nice options, but who would the target market be? My dad would love it. However, he wouldn't buy it because, "Where are your sisters kids going to ride?"
