The car is a 650HP ZO6--wouldn't take much for a mishap

Did he have handicapped plates on it? I watched guy park in handicap spot jump out of vette and run into store.

But a couple of years ago a guy with a yellow Ferrari and at the same pump had handicap plates, anyone wanna bet, he's a Dr. who got himself the plates & you're from up north when you use the term plates instead of tags

Joe is only 75, not 80.

I don't know...........

They can be as fierce as they are capable of doing or as docile as a Honda Fit on the way to the grocery store.

How many other cars are on the roads of TV that could be considered beyond some folks capability. For some that would be any car with 4 wheels and steering.

We have been driving vettes for 50 years...Beachbend Drag strip...Daytona Speedway and The Villages! Fun where ever driven.

as long as you know the difference between the gas pedal & the brake pedal after looking @ the driver it may be a problem and its for real

This sounds like fake news or green eye news!

Maybe they shouldn't own Cadillacs either

The Cadillac CTS-V is the most powerful and fastest production car in the 112-year history of General Motors' luxury division. Even for a brand known for big engines with huge horsepower, this latest entry into the horsepower wars may be one of the most significant achievements in company history.

I think someone is jealous!

In his 80's and still had tone. Good for him.

We live in an age where the performance of cars you can buy straight off of the showroom floor...was unimaginable even a few short years ago.

0-60 times around 3 seconds, 1.0G+ skid pad numbers and 180+ mph top speeds...can actually come in handy.

And where better to use the performance of these "supercars" cars than in TV...while trying to avoid an accident in the plethora of roundabouts? :D
