Edmunds.com calls it "Maria Sharapova at a tennis match full of middle-aged and badly dressed men." Lutz vows that design will no longer take a backseat to sales and marketing. A forthcoming Cadillac will be a model dreamed up by a design team and pitched to senior execs instead of the other way around. A 2007 Saturn sedan, the Aura, with an exterior designed in Germany...
