Vehicle record

The car.

A second-generation CTS-V sedan converted into a purpose-built drag car by a previous owner, seized by the federal government, sold at a U.S. Marshals asset auction, and bought by a used-car dealer in Georgia. Reported 8.6-second history. Now the people vote on what happens to it.
