If I had enough money to buy another yank as well I would love a Cadillac CTS V with the ZR-1 engine.

I'd go for a Cadillac XLR-V. Far more rare in UK than any Italian exotica!

Only one catch ....

.... once I'd bought the car would it ever be possible to sell it again when the time came?

I'd give you whatever I had in my pocket at the time?! I'm not being intentionally rude either.

Unless someone's willing to raise you a couple of polos and a paperclip that might be the best offer! smile

Stratstone Newcastle have an ex footballer XLR (not V) for sale.

I remember when they took it in part exchange, and I haven't worked at Park Lane for 11 months!

We sold a U.S. import a couple of years ago. I actually rather liked it although I can't really fit in them. The styling is rather Batmobile too. The big problem is that the car has no image or awareness over here, so nobody knows they exist to want one.

I know this is going to sound strange, but I'm not particularly an American car fan. I just like great performance cars and currently three of the most desirable cars out there are made by GM, which I find amazing:

1) ZR1. Forget King of the Hill, this one's King of the World (and I bet James Cameron has one!)
2) CTS-V. Even long time Yank-sceptic Clarkson says buying any other super saloon would be madness.
3) Camaro SS. What a stunning looking car. I defy anyone to watch the Transformers movie and not want one. Badly.
