Default my run in with a 370 Z and a caddy

This morning around 7 am headed to the bank I see this caddy Im not sure what model, Its the one that almost looks like a c6. Well I pass him doing about 80 mph just to get a better look at the car hell I was impress at it, Its not a common caddy seen on the daily. I pass this guy and check my rearview to get out the fast lane and this silver thing is stuck to my bumper. Im like WTF??? I get over and its the new 370 z. It looks good from the front rolling and so on but the back is ugly. So this guy is hanging next to me and Im like ok do you want to play hmmm.... lets see as soon as I went from 6th to 5th he jets out lol!! I was like ok those things move for what they are and sounded pretty good . Well he slowed down and got next to me again, I set the boost controller to 7 psi" Gotta love Eboost 2" I go to 4th gear and show him three fingers, We are rolling about 60 mph he honks off three and I just walk him bad I put about 4 car on him quick shut down at 135 He rolled back up and we exchange the thumbs up.

The Caddy based off the C6 is the XLR (they're both y-bodies).
The base XLR has the run-of-the-mill 4.6 Northstar (330hp I think).
The XLR-V has a supercharged 4.4L Northstar and around 440hp.

Nice kills.

Ok I was wondering because that is the first time I seen one rolling I always thought it was a concept car.
