Cadillac Le Mans Prototype Hitting the Auction Block
Back in 2002, Cadillac campaigned the LM-02 racer. After two years of dismal results, this car, LM-02-002, was a lone bright light for the team’s efforts, placing 9th at Le Mans and landing on the podium four times in the American Le Mans Series.
Powering the racer a 4.0-liter, V8 that produces 600-hp, thanks to a twin-turbo set-up. It also has a six-speed paddle-shift gearbox, just like in a Formula-One car. It also gets carbon brakes on all four corners.
And now all this goodness can be yours, because model number LM-02-002 is going on the auction block at the Amelia Island Concours on March 12, 2011. The auction portion will be handled by RM Auctions, a company that specializes in moving exotic machinery.
So if you fancy yourself a new track-day toy, this fully functional racer might just be what you’re looking for.
