Next year, Cadillac will celebrate 115 years as “The Standard Of The World”. Henry Leland was a machinist and gun maker who was asked to help liquidate a failed automotive company. The Henry Ford Company was Ford’s first attempt at building his own car, and it didn’t succeed. Leland saw the potential and decided to buy the leftovers and start his own company. Cadillac would make him a wealthy man, and he sold it to General Motors. A few years later, he started Lincoln, which was ironically purchased by Henry Ford. Over a century later, Lincoln and Cadillac are still going at it.

The Glacier Metallic Edition will be limited to 115 cars, each one finished in an appealing smoky gray exterior. Red Brembo calipers and black Recaro buckets are standard equipment, along with a 2-day course at the V Performance School at Spring Mountain Raceway. All the most desirable features are also onboard, including the carbon fiber package and the luxury package.
