Americans made the best cars in the world
 
Now I may be a German but I admit that Americans made the best cars in the world. My favorite brand from U.S.A is Cadillac and after little research I figured the 1957-1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham was at the top of its game. By the way, this car was 216.3 inches (5494 mm) long.

And here's a 1965 Cadillac DeVille.

Now just look at these two cars and feel how much BETTER they're looking compared to modern cars. Mercedes-Benz can only dream of making a car like that. Porsche may make the best sports cars ever but who really cares about performance if you can get a car that looks as crazy as a classic Cadillac?

They also used a Cadillac in my (thus far) favorite movie "Law Abiding Citizen" which is when I realized that American classic cars are superior to everything else.

Those are bad for the environment!

What we need is houses covering every square inch of this country.

I mean the new Cadillac CT-5 Blackwing isn't bad but compared to the cars I posted above it's a serious downgrade and I'm tired of pretending it's not. How in the world did we go from V8s and big long cars to this? Now every car in the world looks European.

my guess is because people in america started getting lazy around the 60s.

CT5 Blackwing is legit.

Pound for pound, dollar for dollar, nothing beats a 'vette Z06 at 150k.
