I have a SUV for regular driving and I'd like more of a true sports car: corvette, cayman, 4c, etc. I know Caddy has tried the vette-based sport car in the past, but I do think they're in a great position currently to offer a 2-seat FR sports car, like a C7, since chevy now sells the MR C8. If Caddy came out with more of a true sports car, that's something I'd consider.
While that sounds cool in theory, I'm not sure how well that would work, since the Cadillac would likely be more expensive and then people would argue why wouldn't you just spend $60k on a mid-engined corvette, especially when reviews are saying the Corvette's interior is now very nice.
