Science Abuse Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 this is news? One of caddilacs first XLR tester cars ran a checkpoint for a NE Ohio rally I ran in almost 2 years ago. We saw him pull in the meeting lot with the top down and the manufacturer plates and were taken aback. The last time I'd seen it was at its unveiling at the NAIAS a couple months before. It was also my fisrt preview of the C6 platform. We all got way up in that car, er, atleast, as far up in it as we were alowed. He had spent the previous day at some Car and Driver test/photo shoot further south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the V. Sat in it for two minutes at the NAIAS that Eric spoke of and fell in love with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
