OOH! Look what parked next to me today!

It's a coworkers. His was one of the first batch of 12 to hit US soil.


**EDIT**

LOL@myself. I'm a dope. I said "US soil", like it's an import. Of course I meant, one of the first 12 delivered. Drugs are bad, mkay?

Hopefully there's a nice lunch break where the 600 can go destroy that thing.

Yeah. Once he breaks it in, and thinks it's fast, I'll go whoop dat ***!

He just sold his C6 Z06 for it, I believe. He's more of a 'track with turns' guy than a 1/4 mile guy, though. A bit older....but likes to toss his cars around a bit.

There are a few here in South Florida, I had to do a double take when I first saw one.
For a minute I was thinking maybe Government Motors has a chance, then I read this

wouldn't that be paying it backwards?

Oh wait, I just saw the "analized" comment. Never mind.

Not sure where you got the info on "first 12" (unless he took delivery last month) but there are 3 Caddy dealerships in my area that have had them on their lots for several weeks. Cadillac of Napervile (where I bought my V) contacted me and said they have a couple available for immediate delivery over two weeks ago. I even drove one.

Meh... I must be the only person who thinks the V's are bland looking. Typical GM...

I'm not design engineer, but where do you guys see a similarity between the two vehicles, aside from the rear window slope?

Different wheel arches, different front (and obviously rear) overhangs, and two extra doors.

Just going by what he told me. He's almost 60 and doesn't seem like something he'd have any reason to make up. When he bought his Z06, he went to the factory and picked it up. Maybe he did the same with the Caddy?

if it's important to you, I can certainly get clarification from
him. Not sure how long he's had it.
