Vince Burlapp (aka vburlapp on social media or burlappcar.com) is a prolific virtual artist who loves to dream of all the latest models across the wide-ranging automotive realm – especially from Cadillac. Also, it seems that he likes to keep them on digital repeat.
Truth be told, we understand why this pixel master has a veritable passion for the American luxury brand. It could be that the General Motors subsidiary, unlike Ford’s Lincoln or Stellantis’ non-existent premium American brand, still has a veritable family of models that includes passenger cars, crossovers, and SUVs.
Additionally, they also have a lot of novelties backing up their roster. The refreshed 2024 XT4 crossover, the facelifted 2025 CT5, plus new arrivals like the CT5-V series along with the latest Blackwing special editions, the upcoming 2025 Optiq and Escalade IQ, or the 2026 Vistiq three-row electric crossover SUV if you need some examples. That’s quite a lot, and they’re mostly cool, right?
There are even more things to wait – our spy photographer partners have already caught the refreshed ICE-powered Cadillac Escalade undergoing testing to join the updated 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, plus the upcoming GMC Yukon and Yukon XL in the full-size classic SUV family of GM. Also, since we discussed the parallel universes of this artist’s vehicular CGI, he also dreams of many things for Cadillac – from future compact SUVs with IQ moniker to the sixth-generation Escalade or from revived Seville and DeVille sedans to all-new coupe and cabriolet ideas.
Speaking of the aforementioned two-door Cadillac thoughts, this time around, the author wants to reinvent the coupe style for the American luxury brand – although he knows very well that in the real world, GM has no new Cadillac coupe planned. That means no Eldorado or no Coupe de Ville. Both have been envisioned by this pixel master, though, in the past. Just recently, the Coupe de Ville – a popular Cadillac model in its heyday – became the latest source of attraction for a CGI revival from this digital master.
Now, he’s back with a follow-up to the Cadillac Coupe de Ville illustration and decided to showcase the Convertible version, too. According to the author, “Long before the smaller Seville or more modern CT6 or CT5, the big De Ville Cadillac coupe and sedan were the bread and butter of GM’s luxury brand, and the two-door Coupe de Ville was available as a convertible as well.” As such, here’s the unofficially resurrected ‘Vert option looking ready to dwell around a multi-million-dollar mansion in fantasy land. So, do you dig its edgy retro-futuristic styling in relationship with the CGI Coupe de Ville variant or not?
