My love of fast cars

Since I was 10 years old, I have love fast cars, reading my monthly car magazines, attending autoshows, and going to race car driving school. I never thought I would be lusting after a Cadillac, but that is what I am feeling now, having read several articles on the new CTS-V. This Audi A4-sized sports sedan delivers over 550 horsepower from its supercharged V-8 engine and has road manners to match. And includes crisp, chiseled, muscular styling, to boot. Recently, at an event sponsored by GM, this small Caddy was driven balls-out on a private race course where it bested its BMW rivals (the M3 and M5) as well as a high-performance Jaguar. This goes to show how far American cars have come in this last decade. Nice.

And, yes, I know I am a rather odd gay man, who likes a highly eclectic mix of sports, Project Runway, spirituality, progressive politics, Royal family gossip and fast cars.
