Interesting car. I can't imagine why they featured a one off car on Motoring week, you couldn't buy it.

Fact is a 1996 Cadillac STS could be bought, had much nicer interior and features and equal if not better performance. I always referred to my STS as a Muscle Car in a Tuxedo, sure miss that beast.

Ray, you know I can't stay silent to that!

One major problem with that STS that leaves it far behind in the comparison and I think you know what that is....!

Nope, guess again.

I'll give you a hint.

When you drive a real musclecar, a good old North American musclecar, you have to look in your rear view mirror to see the tire smoke.

Yes I know you have a penchant for loss of traction and smoke from a rear wheel drive automobile.

I've driven high powered front wheel drive cars. The driving experience doesn't compare. Even though that Buick Allure 5.3 I test drove for you sounded cool and was fun, it doesn't feel the same.

And I beg to differ on loss of traction. I can show you some very nice street cars, rear wheel drive, that will lift the front tires.

Oh yes, I know, that's why I'm amazed you compare the Cadillac to rear wheel drive cars! Night and day, black and white, water and oil, Laurel and Hardy..... no, wait, I think that last one maybe is out of place.

Anyway, you get my drift.

Over and out.
