Yes I still have it. Yes, I test the acceleration daily. I've blown the doors off of the following so far:
Mustang Cobra
Corvette
Police Interceptor
That last one was fun.......

Excellent. I have seen the prices on those crashing down...every now and then I consider it, but they are still far too pricey for me to justify it, and I think I would prefer a 63 series car over a 55, as for some reason I don't trust superchargers. I also fear the low visibility in that design would drive me nuts.
And on the Caddy subject...I wonder if they will make any "4 door coupe" variant like the CLS, which has been a huge success for MB and is now being copied by others.

Got to see a new Hyundai Genesis up close and in person on Friday night. It really isn't as impressive as it is in pictures and the grille is pretty homely. It looks like some Chinese interpretation of a cross between an Acura RL and a Lexus LS. It's the ultimate luxury poseur-mobile. The owner is a guy who runs a factory staffed with labor of questionable immigration status.

I've always thought the current STS could be the base for a CLS type vehicle...

Because many Cadillac owners traded in their CTS for Genesis, followed by Avalon.

I certainly wouldn't trade a CTS for a Hyundai Genesis - the new preferred conveyance of sweatshop managers who employ illegal aliens and whose own immigration status could come into question. Nor would I trade it for an Avalon - the dream ride of aging, irrelevant Boomers who couldn't afford a Lexus. I'd rather be seen in my old 1988 Park Avenue with the fading paint and peeling clearcoat than drive either of those poseurmobiles

Yes, the DTS...conveyance of Wall Street brokers who repackage and sell untenable mortgage-backed securities and allowed unbridled credit to unqualified Caddy owners!
That's what should be seen in the mall parking lots!
Here's a good one on sale still under original warranty!!
2006 Cadillac DTS Performance - $19,999
