Under 11 seconds is big-time speed.  TheV8  Caddies are indeed very quick cars....although that one is far from stock.

GM couldn't shake the old folks reputation of Oldsmobile, I doubt they can do it with Caddy.

Caddy is working hard at it, but the image takes years to change.  I hope they make it, because I really like what they've done over the past few years.

When I bought my Lincoln MKX a couple of years ago, I was doing some online comparison between the Caddy SRX and the MKX Lincoln. I accidently popped up the CTS supercharged wagon and flipped when I saw some of the stats. 565 hp was the first one that that hit me, but the 0 to 60 and quarter mile times about knocked me over too. I can't remember exactly what they were, but take the 565 hp and let your imagination do the rest :o.

My parents last car was a Buick Century.  It was the car that provided easiest access for my ailing mother.
