no love fot the 59 Eldorado?

I like some of the older 40's caddies for Street Rods as well, all the 80's cars sucked, even the wierd 2 door they had that I can't remember the name of...

I think I'd be plenty happy with a CTS-V, it may not quite hang with an M5 in handling, but I bet the boys at Ligenfelter will make damn sure the BMW is just a speck in the mirror on the straight.

I wonder if I could get the same paint they use on a B2 for it, not that it'd help for laser or probably radar for that matter, but it'd look neat with a black wire mesh grill....

Hehe, I should have one by then. I will come to the meet, just probably after 6pm.

Deville sales are somewhat down, so I may get one of those to promote that model. I would be just fine in a DTS. Black please.

And Tino, what up yo!

I just saw the price on that XLR I saw the other morning. $76,000. That is one smooth *** car, but I could get a MKIV Supra, 3rd gen RX7, and a s14 with s15 conversion for that. Not to mention, mod the heck out of the MKIV and ReX with what was left over.

I would also like to demo an XLR, but I don't think that anyone will get one of those as a demo. Maybe the dealer principal, but it's not even released yet. I'm waiting personally for the CTS-V, but that's supposed to be limited production.

I turned a 16.4 at 83mph last weekend in the 240. I cleaned out the intake and throttle body with carb cleaner and removed the air silencer and the above time is down from a 17.3 at 76mph. Not bad for 198k stock single-cam! :ylsuper


Hey, that's a pretty good time. I was kinda curious how she'd do as I never took her to a drag strip except as a spectator.

I was teasing about AARP. I don't think it exists for new cars. But at many restaurants or stores, an AARP card is equivalent to a AAA card. Very Modest discounts.

I had read somewehere that the median age of Buick owners is a little higher than Caddy, but not by a whole lot.

Hitman: Ho's may dig Escalades, women may dig Q's, but HOT women dig 350Z's (snicker).

Bigger is not necessarily better. It's what you do with the size you've got is what's important (ahem)...

I wouldn't want a Caddy unless someone were to give me one for free. Not likely to happen, but if they did, I would go with the SRX. 330 hp awd. Nough said.
