Default CBSs James Brown Getting ZR1 for Xmas !

If you are watching today's Jet / Bronco game as I am we should all be envious of James Brown , the CBS sports announcer. Besides his new ZR1 coming this Xmas he also has ( 3 ) 1969 Camaros, a 1937 Ford Coupe , a 1955 Chevy , a 1971 Cuda , A Buick Riveria, a 1950 Mercury , A 1941 Willys, and a pro street chevy 11 . He says " I am just like a little kid , waiting for a Christmas gift ". Pining for that 638 HP , ZR1.
For a man who already lives life at 180 MPH , its about to get a lot faster . MERRY XMAS JAMES !

71 Cuda! Nice, Mr. Brown! Dodge should've brought back the Cuda along with the Challenger and made a killing. The whole "That thing got a Hemi?" craze all over again for a new generation to throw their cash at.

Isn't that what the new Challenger already did? I haven't checked but I'm not sure it's selling that well. btw the Cuda was a Plymouth. Same chassis just a different look.

Just another Celeb throwing down the big $$ to get an early ZR1. The corvette magazines keep you abreast of all of the celebs getting a ZR1.

James Brown is an awesome guy and you should not bust his chops, just because he is famous. He is a regular car enthusiast, just like everybody on this forum. And it should not matter what he paid, he still deserves the wave.
