If you want to agree to disagree that's fine because I am not trying to argue. If you mean you can reach the street limits, that's alright by me. Those street limits aren't the true limits of the vehicle though.
I have not gotten the tires to melt, however, I have gotten the brakes nice and hot.
Anyways, I don't mean to muck up your thread anymore, nice pics and enjoy the rides, they are well worth it!

If I had 80 grand:
i'd either take a 05 Vette Z06 and take the remaining 30 grand and add bolt ons.
or
take 80 grand and get a 05 S2K and make it CRAZY.
or
a Bone stock SLK55 AMG.

the viper has never impressed me. yeah it has a v-10 but the size of motor it is kind of a disappointment IMO. yes it has the torque that S2K doesn't have however the s2k has insane redline range.

Dude, an '05 Z is going to sticker at 65k at the least, possibly 75k. Then, add in the damn dealer mark-ups that are going to happen, and you have a 80-90k car. You will not be able to get a C6 Z for around 50k for a few years.
