maybe he sold it because you almost crashed it. :winkwink:

viper :thumbsup

Dude, Vince was driving a fuckin' Pantera, not a 'vette.

pantera?

I have more than one car already, not to mention my motorcycle which will pretty destroy any car out there!

Nice bike. But, a Mustang over a Vette? hahaha.....
You should have picked up your friend at the airport with one of your other cars. A vette is totally impractical. If you can afford one, you don't give a shit about practicality. :2 cents:

Corvettes are NICE... :thumbsup

Z06? Pleaseee.. Callaway baby :thumbsup

Nothing like the sound of two monster turbos spooling on a V8.. a wet dream on wheels! :winkwink:

but 20x better than a civic...

and you need to compare the slk 32 amg. its not as fast as the top corvette, but its build 10x better and has a retractable hardtop.

That car is not as fast as the normal Corvette. And the Corvette can be bought with as a 'vert. The Z06 would trounce the Benz, not even close.

Each to his own, that Benz is a beast. My personal taste is performance over anything. Maybe when I am old my tastes will change. :2 cents:

50?

that car p00p posted looks good for the money$$$$

i still think dollar for dollar and babe appeal
the vette wins

this is one of mine....

0-60 times for regular vette are like .3 faster. better interior, retractable hardtop, better handling and overal better car trumps the horsepower.

if you want real performance buy a bike. cars are blah.

America's Pride and Joy! get a vette:thumbsup

0-60 is close. Then again, that is a supercharged benz against a n/a vette with 20 less horsepower? Doesn't look good for the Benz. You should look more at 1/4 mile times, etc. Benz is nice, but not that great. And nowhere near the vette in looks or performance.
Besides Vette is good 'ol USA. I wouldn't buy anything German, thank you very much. :winkwink:

I want one to.

north american cars are crap ..... they're made cheap.

So are German cars.

My 67 year old father drives one, but you probably didn't want to hear that :winkwink: He says all the 16-18 year old guys in Civics try to race him at every red light, lol!

And don't let that MikeFold character fool you - he's an old fart too (ducking and running............)

i know plenty of people with various models of mercedes and they're excellent quality. they're very reliable, but yes when something breaks its damn expensive. usually 7 years before something major happens, usually longer.

The interior of the Vette is the biggest pile of garbage EVER! Performance wise, the Z06 rocks and is hard to beat for the money. Spend about 10K extra on one adding some 1 piece Recaro's, new steering wheel, Linginfelter snorkel intake, headers, full exhaust and drop it on a full HR suspension and it's a great ride.

From the factory, crap. With mods, great. Simple formula if you have the $$$$.

And by the way for whoever said they don't make a Z06 convertible check here and go buy one if you must have it without the top. http://www.caravaggiocorvettes.com/

Gimme a Shelby Cobra with a 289 cubic inch motor (the 427 is way overpowered).

don't think i didn't see that peaches......
:glugglug

I drive a vette - in the summer - here's a pic.

Mines the grey one --

I'll probably be selling it come April as I'm on the brink of bankruptcy -- wanna buy it?

$15,000 CND.



:thumbsup

I also drive a cougar xr7 with a super charger on it here it is:

http://www.chezchris.ca/pics/chris/chris_bio06.jpg


But I'm selling it to - I wanna get a Lincoln Mark VIII instead.


:BangBang:

I have a 2002 Z06, and I don't think there's any sports car I'd take over it. :thumbsup

You're not bullshitting are you? How many of those are in Winnipeg?

I have a 98 convertible.

I am going to get an 03' coupe in Red.

sell me your convertible :D

Here's me in my '88 with my radar detector going off. Pigs everywhere - then they nailed me - $170 buck fine.

Fuckerz.

Always make sure you have the cloaking feature turned "on"

I drove (borrowed) a '02 convertible vette for a few months thanks to a friend and had a blast.... I wish I could afford my own!!! If anyone finds a used silver coupe 2000+ with less than 35,000 miles on it for a reasonable price.... LOOK ME UP!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I don't know how many there are in Winnipeg, I just moved here this Winter. I assume there are at least couple, but it's not that common of a car. If you think I'm bullshitting, when I take it out I'll take some pics of me in it representing with the GFY shirt. I bought it before I moved here, lol, in Vancouver I could get a lot more use out of it.

fuck that, oil prices are too freakin high
