yep, I know of a couple 300K C4's and close to 200K C5's

BTW, that's partly the reason I ended up with an Integra instead of a CRX Si or Mustang GT back in the day- insurance was much higher, and I wasn't 19 then either.

how is this even a question?
the CORVETTE is the SUPERIOR car in terms of performance / bang for your buck / stature. Nothing else really needs to be said the MPG difference isnt enough to make a difference, plus who the hell buys a 350z or a vette and worries about gas

good way to ruin a Z06 - that looks DREADFUL. Stockers look way better.

Jeremy Clarkson is a twat.... he's among the most entertaining TV show hosts out there but if its American its automatically shit somehow, if its German its all engineering and no soul, if its French its automatically shit no matter what, and if its the British or Italian it simply is the best hands down, and Aston Martin is god. He actually made excuses about how his Ford GT isn't really American at all to justify owning it.
I think he might actually be Yumchah

that red vette zo6 is hot! pure american muscle.
when i went to europe on vacation 2 weeks ago, i only saw 1 corvette there at the madrid airport, pretty odd that the vette was bigger than a taxi over there
