ya but 400hp vs 350hp might be worth the extra change
and when the C6 Z06 comes out @ 500hp

:bukkake: on the C5

I'm not saying that the C5 ain't shit but the C6 is a big step up.

But, if I'd choose right now it would need to be four doors and a manual with good mod potential. That would limit me to the CTS-V which would be fine with me and is on the potential list.

There are sooo many cool cars out now, but a lot can change in 2 years.

I don't know what I'm gonna get next. But one thing for sure is that now is a great time to be a car nut. There at just too many cool cars out now and even more are on the way.

Right now, I am a little partial to the Crossfire convertible, but I don't think it has the HP I am really looking for. So who knows. I got some info on the new C6 last week. That car looks sweet. Push button start, touch screen DVD nav, HUD, and 400 ponies behind you. Never owned a Chevy in my life, but this car may be enough to convert me.

But again, you never know.

You do know there will be an SRT-6 CF convertible right? Won't be available with a manual, but it will have around 320hp.

Hopefully a new TL or a new-body style M3 (to be called the M4 probably by the time I'm shopping). I have to wait until I graduate and can save some money before I can start looking, so I have a while to go, but its always good to dream. Plus, my truck is at 49,8xx, and shows no sign of stopping, and unless gas prices get too high, I'm a happy camper!
