don't let Chevy off the hook that easy. The corvette Its still very far from being the car it could be. It almost makes me want to drop everything, go to design school and build my own coaches like in dem olden days when you only bought the engine and chasis.
Somewhere someone said that the corvette may be fun to rip but you still feel like your sitting in a rental car.
p.s.
in France the the French line up at the start line at LeMans just to hear the Corvette engines fire up. They think they are like what would be Ferraris to us Americanes.

And I thought this age-old argument was isolated to other cubby holes on the internet.....both cars are great machines. For $60k, the vette is looking pretty good, especially when side by side with my 996tt (at $125k yech!)
Ultimately, however, my Boxster S is the best car I've owned. Maybe not the wow factor of the chipped tt, but it is better balanced, and puts a ****************-eating grin on my face everytime I take it out. It gets my vote.
Now, if I can only find about 75hp somewhere.....

it is a shame but we never see any new corvettes here, the old imported restored ones on occasions and only in exhibitions or car show, is the old vettes to you like the 993/996 debate we have with the porsche purists?
the newer vettes looks like a handful, would'nt mind to have a go......
Top gear gives a good look at the Vette and 911. Even though I think the brits don't much like American cars. I actually got a new respect for the base model C6.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
