So, I leave my house to go downtown and I stop at the light to get on the freeway. Not much traffic out on Sunday. Anyway this is a double left turn and it goes for a third of a mile or so then merges on to I-25. So I'm sitting there and a caddy comes roaring up next to me(I'm in the far left lane and he is on my right side). By the way he was driving up to the light I could tell he was in a hurry. I look over and it is a black two door caddy with a northstar badge on it. So I think, I'll just punch it and beat him to the merge point. Light turns green I turn and punch it. He must of had the same idea cause he flew by me and just kept on walking away. He got to the merge point about 5 car lengths before me. I did not think the northstar had that much power to move a heavy caddy like that. Oh, I was in my 92 bird(mods in sig). Let that be a leason well learned.

caddys have 300 horses....they run a low to mid 14 in the quarter...not your average granny car

 

indeed northstars are nothing to laugh at.

 

Have you all seen the new caddy sports car they are coming out with? XLR, has like 335hp. its on a Vette Frame, retractable hard top Vert is the one i saw, its BADAZZ car. Oh course its RwD also

 

Not low to mid 14s, but high 14s to low 15s. They are quick but not that quick...

Oh yeah reminds me of when the Caddy STS outran the SRT-4, and yes the SRT-4 was racing as he spun slightly off the line, and spun a little into 2nd. The 2nd race the SRT stayed ahead by about half a car but in the first race the addy had him by a car length or so.

 

Got to love big cars!!!!

 

he'd probly walk you even harder on the top end, I hear the northstars like to rev

 

what 2dr caddy? the XLR roadster or the Eldarado?

eldorado


XLR


they are 2 very different cars.

 

Im talking about the XLR, they are sweet cars.

 

I know you are.. but the original poster...which car?

and yeah.. the XLR is sweeeet.. but teh C6 will be way better.

 

i sold my 97 Caddy STS back in april. that thing ran 14.90's all day long. was funny as hell beating up on R*I*C*E in a suit and tie sipping on my coffee in the morning

 

A gentleman's musclecar... Nothing like luxury and performance, in the same package...

 

I recently saw a CTS on a autohauler with big Baer Brakes(13" maybe/4 piston), a 6spd and an LS1. Had a factory window sticker on it too but I oculdn't read it. Too high up. Anyone heard anything about this?

 

Thats the new 2004 CTS V-Series. It's got a 400hp LS6 out of the Corvette Z06. Does 0-60 in like 4.7!

 

my mommas car=1999 Cadillac Eldorado ETC
300 horse northstar V8 best 1/4 mile 14.77@94mph

thats pretty scary when my moms car is faster than my heavily modded RS

 

I've seen pics of the c6 its not that much different than the c5 but you can see the past vette's styled into the c6 plus it's like 100 pounds heavyer than the current z06

 

Well the C5 was such a nice car, why change it up a whole bunch? IT does have a very different look then the C5. And the new C6 will be 200lbs lighter then the current C5. The base C6 will be faster then the C5's Z06.

 

That's why I can't wait to get the STS I have a chance of getting next month

 

calling an sts a muscle car is stretch

 

true but when it can take out pathetic LO3's and LG4's it's funny

 

caddies are quick, like most top end granny cars, my friends 96 3.8 bonneville would rip my old lg4 up, the l69 however .

Twobirds:was it the 104th onramp? Did you see what they added there?

 

Yeah, "Musclecar" was a stretch, to be sure. How a bout a "Medicare Sled w/ Power"?

 

Come call this a medicare sled...

 

Its a mediocre sled.....











that I would drive the hell out of nice car, but I could still take it out

 

better be running better then 13's to take out this thing. mid 12's or better.

 

No, it was on the 84th going south. And they have those same dam lights as on 104th. Those suck. When those lights start operations you'll be damed trying to get up to speed to get on I-25. Someone will get rearended and get killed.

Bigals87z28 as I remember it was the Eldarado and I'm sure it had STS on it. It looked just like the one you posted.

I don't even think my forumla 350 would of took it out.

Laters,
Conrad

 

if it said STS on it, thats not a eldarado, its a seville. The Eldarado, it would say something like ETS. Either way, they are pretty fast for a big car.

 

Seville it is then, It did look like the picture you posted though. Anyway, I put it in the do not race with the tbi file.

Conrad

 

What Al posted is a CTS-V, not a Seville

 

Tony, I also posted cars above too, one of the XLR and one of the Eldarado. He said a 2dr car, and thoes are the only 2 cars that caddy has made in a long time(less the alante) that he could have raced.

 

Odd, they didn't show up before for me lol
