@McMike: Same here. That's right about when they lost me.

Given the success Cadillac had in the 04-07 seasons when they campaigned the original CTS-V, it was only a matter of time- two manufacturer's championships and a Driver's championship in three years is pretty good.

2010 CTS-V, but the fastest I've owned is my current 03 Evo 8- I've had it to 155mph the way it's set up now (It came up on me quickly, I backed off when I remembered the crappy all season tires... aack!) I got the V to 160 before I backed off of it, but I believe it when the factory says 190mph+ on the top end with

@KotakuLand: Yes, but at this rate the 6th one will be out right about the same time as my personal jet pack, so I probably won't care about racing cars so much anymore. ;)

@bigPixel: The other drivers in GT5 are all from New Jersey. Totally accurate. ;)

@CobraJoe: It's Ford. I'd believe any ridiculously small horsepower number. It's not like it's a homologation car and they're being deceptive about the actual power output, they're supposedly only making 50 of them. On the bright side, it's the only application where a live axle is actually a good thing.

@SerialThriller: My point was more that you could just buy a GT, put the Ford Racing supercharger on it, and strip the interior and glass and you'd be in the car for half that and meet the same requirements.

Do you have any idea how nice a double wide you could get for that kind of money? 430hp from a supercharged 5.4 liter is... well, kinda REALLY disappointing. another ten grand to bump it to 500? Get real!

@Sapper: I was just thinking- this is why we can't find Bin Laden.

@Tentacle: I meant the stuff falling off the shuttles all the time- tiles fall off a bathroom shower, and it doesn't have to go 17,000mph ;)

@Tentacle: In that case, it's no wonder NASA is broke... ;)

@cabjf: Did they even sell the Pinto in Europe? I'm not exporting one just for this! :-p

@Barnaby Jones: That depends- are French people... people? :-p

So in France, if I pop a tire and have an accident, I can find out what construction crew left a nail in the road 10 years later and sue them?

@John Carter: How often do you get a 7 seater wagon coupe? ;)

I haven't gotten an old Saab into a QOTD in a while, so here's our '98 95. :)
