Keeping true to his word, it looks like soon-to-be President Obama is doing his part to jump-start the stalled American economy and help out U.S. automakers all at the same time (and you doubted that he could do it!).

I guess that it is only fair that if the new First Lady gets to select a new set of China for state dinners that Obama gets to pick himself a new ride.

What will the new President be chauffered around in during his term in office you may be wondering? Well, let's just say that this is one guy that is "Movin' On Up!" from his days spent behind the wheel of his grandpappy's Granada.

As we were all told during his election campaign, Obama is planning to shake thing up out in Washington D.C. and a run of the mill hand-me-down limo was simply out of the question.

Spy shots of his choice in limos started surfacing on the internet recently giving us a preview of the President's new wheels.

While it may look like your run of the mill Cadillac DTS stretched out to the limits, the President's new ride is about the farthest thing from your usual prom-wagon. Described as "a rolling tank with windows," from the looks of the spy shots that are circulating on the internet, this beast seems to be made up of parts from many different Cadillac models including Escalade headlights and possibly some STS parts as well. Although, the custom-windows (bullet-proofed to the max) look to be strictly custom.

According to the folks at CNN, the brand-new presidential limousine will be introduced into service on January 20 for the 2-mile jaunt down Pennsylvania Avenue during the inaugural parade.

Hopefully they will finish with the body and paint work before the eyes of the world are on this car during the upcoming parade. Otherwise, maybe it would be better if they resurrected Obama's grandfather's Granada for the event.
