The Cadillac is farking insane!  Corvette LS2 engine (400HP, 400lb-ft
torque) in a Cadillac body--with a 6-speed manual to boot.  0-60 in 4.2
seconds.  Does suck gas like Dean Martin drank gin, but it's fun.  The
best thing is to give it to a valet.  They get in and you often get a
"What the f***?  A Caddie with a stick?  Something's very wrong here!"

The Jag is, well, a 37-year-old Jaguar.  Leaks oil, is a bit cranky, but
also a lot of fun to drop the hood (top) and tool around in here on the
coast in nice weather.

"Why don't the British make computers?  They haven't figured out how to
make them leak oil yet."

Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming...
