Just what we need. A bunch of blue hairs running around town in land yachts. <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> I swear GM hits the nail on the head with the possiblity of a LS1 powered Impala SS and then this?! <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" />

Let me get this straight, there isn't enough demand to restart production of an F-body anytime soon, however a 16 cylinder, 1000hp Cadillac is worth a long look!? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Hmmm... maybe I'm just not aware of the large market segment of wealthy bluehairs looking to trade in their Duesenbergs...

I wonder how much spray it could handle? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Go GM!!!!

The demand is there to see if GM can compete with these blazing fast luxury cars..... I can see GM has no plan on backing down quietly.

I agree that it's kinda cool that Gm can do this. Not really amazing in my opinion. It's like 2 slightly modded LS1's being slapped together. What I don't get is what was stated earlier...Gm drops the F-body. The only remaining sports car they have is the vette and they put this kinda power in a Caddy?? Hello??? Am I missing something here?? What the hell would you do with 1000hp in that car??? Just my opinion of course.
