Obama's New Cadillac Limo Officially Unveiled



President-Elect Barack Obama's getting a new Cadillac Limousine in time for his inauguration on January 20th. Here are the first official photos. The new limo’s a rolling symbol of the President’s power and GM’s marketing.

One tech item they are talking about are the LED spotlights that’ll illuminate the fender-mounted flags at night.
