Post up pics/info once you work the deal out. Let me know if you ever come down to NoVA with it.

well deal is done. i feel like a got a more than fair deal on a garage kept V, like there should be another kind. all service done at lindsay caddy. i'll put up pics in a new post when i pick it up and then off to the detailer it will go to get a nice spa day. other than this site where is a goody addy V1 forum with more of a following?

There's this place, and there's cadillacforums.com. They are different and, IMHO, compliment each other very well with a certain amount of overlap. BOTH are important to the V1 community.

well shes home and i posted the pics from the owner cause i cant stop driving it and its dirty now. i bought the car and intended to drive it on weekends only but i figured i would log some seat time and get a fell for the first round of upgrades i want.
everything works flawlessly. new rear, all service done at lindsay caddy, was under warranty until 100k and has had a multitude of service work done in the recent year. clean car fax, bone stock except for a k&n drop in. i have put 1k miles on it since i took it home and i think revshift mounts front to back and new fluids front to back are first on the list. i have been reading horror stories about aftermarket shifters and nonstock mounts. whos aftermarket shifter is the best? lingenfelter?
and with 113k on the clock i picked it up for $11,900. i think i got a fair deal on it.
