We'd heard the Pope was riding in Popemobile-style yesterday in Washington, DC so we were pretty excited to see it in person. That's right, we were able to witness his New York vehicle of choice firsthand from the 14th floor of Tudor City, right across from the front door of the United Nations. And although we're unsure the Pope knows he shut down the entire East side of Manhattan including all of 1st Avenue, one thing the Pope apparently does know is that the only way to travel — is Cadillac Style. That's right, Cadillac, Cadillac, Cadillac Style.
And yes, that white blotch is in fact, Pope Benedict XVI.

Ok, shall we all split up the pedophilia and nazi youth jokes? ready.....and....GOOOO!!!
Hmm. Picasso paintings, stretch Caddy's, a personal helicopter, and i thought the Vatican was broke??
I'll take the pedophilia jokes
<---recovering from Catholicism, one day at a time...
so much for vow of poverty
I prefer the Popemobile where he is Pope-under-glass. He should be made to ride in it wherever he goes.
Holy Jesus that's a lot of (not very interesting) pictures.
Someone all caught up in a religious fervor here?
Are there even any other options for an armored limo in the U.S. other than Cadillac or Lincoln? I know that people do custom armoring, but it seems like all the limos anyways are one of those two.
Bah... Should Der Fuhrer-Pope be whippin' his Benzo?
Does it come in a V-series?
@БЯд╒╒ ®: Shouldn't not should

They call us problem child
We live our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
Nazi youth gone wild!
With Benedict's love of red shoes, he should be pulling up in today's DOTS Camaro.
Uh, Cadillac grills Cadillac mills
Check out the oil on my Cadillac spills
Matter fact candy paint Cadillac's kill
So check out the ho's my Cadillac fills
20 inch wide 20 inch high
Oh don't you like my 20 inch ride
20 inch thighs make 20 inch eyes
Hoping for American 20 inch pies
Pretty ass clothes pretty ass toes
Oh how I love these pretty ass ho's
Pretty ass high class anything goes
Catch em in the club throwing pretty ass bows
Long jime jaws long jime stalls
Any stank puss make my long jime pause
Women on they cells making long time calls
And if they like to juggle give em long jime's balls
Now if he had pulled up and "hookers dressed as nazis" had gotten out, you got yourself a story.
That never fails to crack me up in my own sick twisted little world.
@Bret: the Red Shoes symbolizes the blood of the people on the soles of the church during Nazi rule.
Sorry to be so down on the Pope, but a German Pope as a Nazi sympathizer? You can't make this stuff up...
On a lighter note, those 1988 Cadillac Style Ads, how cheesy were they?

Glad to see the NYPD got some Dodge Chargers to replace the craptacular Impalas they have been driving around in.
Last time the pope came to the America's he skipped the US but went to Mexico and GM of MExico made him a special poped-out Caddy.

Popin' ain't easy . . .
Now the Pope is someone that would be the perfect owner for a Maybach Landaulet.
@Morphine: Was it the italian rap group, "tre sessanta Mafia" that sang "It's hard out here for a pope"?
a @TurboBrick: Or one of those old breadvans with the faulty exhaust . . .
@AshPipe78:
Heaven's in the back seat of my cadillac -
Let me take you there
yeah yeah.
Heaven's in the back seat of my cadillac -
Let me take you there
yeah yeah.
Can't stand it
can't stand it
Baby
When I'm close to you I wanna touch you
There are people ev'rywhere
people who like to stare
Can't take it Baby
let's get outta here.
Heaven's in the back seat of my cadillac
..And that's no Papal Bull
If it helps with the "poverty" thing, that's not really a Cadillac. It's a GMC truck with Caddy body panels on it.
If only Jesus had a bullet-proof Cadillac and a full security regiment we could have avoided this whole mess, and Joseph Ratzinger could be back home dusting off his Nazi memorabilia and selling bratwurst out of a cart.
@west-coaster: Does that mean the Pope is one stylin' mothertrucker?
Well the guy can't take his Ferrari everywhere. [www.topgear.com]

@БЯд╒╒ ®: Well, we found "The Line" . . .
@Morphine: Is the Bear Catholic?
You think Father Guido Saradoochy is traveling with him?
Sorry crappy spelling
Every time I see the phrase "Cadillac Style" I think of that awful, awful Sammy Kershaw song.
@БЯд╒╒ ®:
HAHAHAHA!
@west-coaster: Is he trying to pull some kind of a body swap scam? GMC frame with a salvage title, slap some Caddy panels on it and sell forwards?
@БЯд╒╒ ®: good one.
P**e magnet...ha.
@Solo_Racer: Do you mean "Bear" Stanley or Yogi?
Owsley's daughter was confirmed, at least . . . Yogi's pic-a-nic basket escapades may have him in the clinch for gluttony and theft.
They see me rollin'
They worhsippin'
Prayin' they tryin to catch me ridin dirty
My masses so proud
I'm swangin'
They hopin that they gon catch me ridin dirty
People think they can see me pray
I'm tint so it ain't easy on this day
When you see me ride by they can see the glean
And my shine on the deck and the TV screen
Ride with a new boy, he like hold up
Next to the playstation controller is a full clip and my pistola
Turn a jacker into a coma
Girl you ain't know, I'm crazy like Krayzie Bone
Just tryin to bone ain't tryin to have no babies
Rock clean itself so I pull in ladies
Laws of God you know I love thee
Religion turned all the way up until the maximum
I can speak for some catholics tryin to jack for some
But we packin somethin that we have and um will have a catholic locked up in the maximum
Security cell, I'm grippin oak
Prayers loud and tippin slow
Twist and twistin like hit this part
Pull up from behind and God in his heart
Windows down gotta stop pollution
CDs change catholics like who is that producing?
This the Pray-N-Skillz when we out and cruisin
Got worhsipers in every city except Houston but I'm still ain't losin
@UDMan: the Red Shoes symbolizes the blood of the people on the soles of the church during Nazi rule.
Naw he's just a big Elvis Costello fan,
Dig it! ->
+ Watch video
@layabout: Ferrari gave the Vatican an Enzo. I believe it was auctioned off to raise money. The pope should be driving that.
I guess he doesn't get to wear his

Big Boy Pope hat in the Caddy...
And yes, that white blotch is in fact, Pope Benedict XVI.
I'm going to use that line.
@P161911: It would make sense,in an Enzo he can get around & Bless more people.
You seem to great clarity out of that sniper scope of yours...
...I shouldn't have said that
I'll say 10 "Our Fathers" and 5 "Hail Marys" - it will be all good.
@Morphine: I wonder if Benedict XVI gets up at Six 'N The Morning? Once he came to my door, but I ran away. I didn't know what the pope wanted, didn't have time to ask.
@БЯд╒╒ ®: I fail to possess you patience. My Ice T parody whithered on the vine.
You may think I'm holy
For the holy things I do
You may wonder how come I love you
When you get on my nerves like you do
Well my flock you know you bug me
There ain't no secret 'bout that
Well come on over here and kiss my ring
Faithful, I'll spill the facts
Well my congregation it ain't your money
'Cause baby I got plenty of that
I love you for my Pope Cadillac
White soutane seats
Riding in the back
Cruisin' down the street
Waving to the penitients
Peeling out of sight
Spending all my tithing
On a Saturday night
Everybody wonders what I do there in the back
Of my Pope Cadillac
Pope Cadillac
@БЯд╒╒ ®: Illustration Of The Day
Given the range & accuracy of those photos, I'm hoping the photographer didn't put down him camera to pick up his rifle.
I hear that the Pope is the Cadillac of religious leaders.
@POLAЯ PAPAL EDITION: @voodoojoo: @БЯд╒╒ ®:
Word
I wonder if thats the presidents limo with different flags. I heard BUSH picked him up from the airport maybe the secret service game him a loaner.
