Unobtanium. No US Caprice's were made in the 2000's, all overseas market stuff. Now if you're talking 2010's.... :twisted:

Aussie or Oz. :roll:

Or how about a PPV, which is exactly what it is.

Haven't seen any with 40s, so I'm not sure we will hear it in slang terms like we heard the others............ but maybe I'm wrong.
