This is easy. 2009 CTS-D 1996 Fleetwood Brougham

Another addition to the virtual fleet. Lincoln 1960 Continental Mark IV 1967 Fleetwood Limousine Love the idea, hate the execution - 2008 CTS Limo

smk, your incoherent arguments are making my trigger finger twitch. the turbo-4 has just about the same torque curve as the base 3.6HF.

I am sooooo in the wrong industry....

uhm the Turbo-4 has roughly the same torque curve as the 3.6vvt that the original CTS had. I think it'd do fine.

Happy Birthday from servermaster to webmaster.

THAT is a claim to fame?!

I think there are already companies out there that do that sort of thing.... minus the limo part.

. ... and Saab has a 300hp Biopower one in the works

The next G6 will be Canadian market only I hope.

So spell it out Camino. That's what this thread is for.

I feel like we've had this thread already.....

oh the mental picture I just got.....

Hmmm. Have a Western PA/Eastern PA/NJ based service and offer cars from both ends of the state for an additional fee.

Those things are hideous! I can see why it hasn't sold

68, that's nice, but not a limo.

Well, the idea was to build a fleet of these old beasts. I don't have the money/time to do this right now anyway, this is mostly just open dreaming. I would have taken you up on the Lincoln though. Edit: It's what I plan to do in a few years once I'm back from Germany.

Rules: 1. Must be $60k or less. 2. Must be "unique" in some way without being tacky. i.e. no Towncars turned into Bentleys, no 300c given "jet doors". 3. B-Bodies acceptable for routine service if cheap and in great shape. 4. Older than 1990 preferred unless very unique or of an interesting premium brand. 1937 Buick 90 Limousine 1965 Cadillac Fleetwood Limousine 1969 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow with Chevy 350 1954 Packard Limo

in the land of make believe.....

Gasoline futures down 5 cents Crude down 3.55

if there ever was to be proof that Holden's days were numbered.....

I'm going to start a thread called "SMK being blatantly wrong or maliciously deceptive" and start moving your posts in there. Saab Aero 2.8 turbo has 280hp and 295 ft/lbs of torque compared to the Camry V6 that gets 268 hp and 248 ft/lbs of torque while having to lug around 400 more lbs. The 9-5 Aero has 8 less horsepower than the Camry but it has 10 more ft/lbs of torque in a 4-cylinder at an absurdly low 1900rpm. The Camry's peak torque hits at 4700 rpm.

We don't care. The Super is not about being the fastest. It never was and never will be. The Super gets you from point a to point b at a brisk pace silently, smoothly, and handsomely. Super's motto is, "It's not how fast you get there, but how good the going is." No Super owner is going to be drag racing someone who feels inadequate in their Accord.
