Jeremy Mayfield (Rusty Wallace's teammate) has one too.

 

I wasn't aware that any '01s had been built yet, certainly not for "public" sale. I'm also surprised by Tim Allen, I read in Motor Trend about a company that he owns having a promotional deal with Cadillac. (Tim Allen Design)

whats he gonna do, put the Northstar engine in lawn mower? hehehe!!

 

tim allen races a sallen mustang not a caddilac, so he has blue oval blood running through his veins.

 

Bill Murray owns a '99
Chuckle, Chuckle

 

radio host imus. he was talking about having one and how it was scarey fast!

 

Tim Allen is also from Denver but since he was arrested for substance abuse here he claims Detroit as his home...go figure

 

Tim Allen was on Car and Driver test driving a new cadillac concept to compete with the M5. Moss of GM was the passenger.you can also put me down as a lightning owner.

 

I have become a celebrity since I got my L. Just call me Hollywood.

Clarification - any year L, not just new ones. They may have even owned one and sold it...

 

You guys talk about Tim Allen. Does he now have a Lightning or did he have one before?

 

He's not really a celebrity but this guy that we work with at alcoa has a 99 red L and he can basically have any car in the world if he wanted it. He loves to drive the L more then anything else. I love my L but If I had his kind of loot I would be in a maclaren F1 or a new saleen s7. I guess? I would still have my L
