95 Hell Dorado vs. 88 GTA????

My mom just bought a 95 Caddy El Dorado, stock, with a northstar 4.6 V8 and auto transmission. My dad thinks it will smoke my GTA like a cheap cigar. I think otherwise. My mods are posted in my sig.

Considering your GTA is almost stock I guess it could go either way but I think you could take the boat out pretty easily.

Your '88 is an L98 car right? If so you will beat it bad. Those caddy's are quick but only the last (and fastest ) of the Eldorado ETC's ran in the high 14's.
