I saw a silver one at the local Caddy dealer when bringing the GP in for its final warranty work...for some reason they wouldn't let me use it as a loaner

I saw several last September at the Corvette plant. Shame on all of you for not attending the F body Gathering

This one was a dealer car, had dealer plates, and all teh paperwork plastered to teh windsheild. Those sheets that list MPG, and all the options etc...

Not loud mean sounding though, I turned off my radio and rolled down my window and I couldnt even hear the exhaust. I was thiking it would sound like a corvette or something.

The only one I've seen was on I65 heading south from Bowling Green on the first day of the F-body Gathering. The car was a dark red and I thought it looked awesome. I still have no idea if they are for sale yet or not.
