depending on howlong you hang around, you'll likely see a mix of posts roughly in these areas:
(1) technical (questions & answers, probs & solutions)
(2) owners showing what mods they made and asking for opinions (stangs have to be one of the most modded vehicles out there, don't you think?)
(3) speculation of what's in store for newer models
(4) operators sharing recent driving experiences (wrecks, any trouble with the law, and feeble attempts from wannabe racers - 4 bangers and the like)
is this similar to what you read on vette boards?
And nice to hear you post in such a gentile manner.

RE: Hi from C6 land ...
I am a Corvette C4 owner 40th Ann., I love my Vette, It has been a garage queen and I have only about 4k miles on it. The mods that I have done are Borla Mufflers, Programmable Chip and Air Foil and CAI. I had a buddy in college that owned a Mach 1 and I always like the Stang. When the new Stang came out I was intrigued and got one. I love that car, use it for my daily driver, can't quite decide which one I like driving more. Just like the Vette is to Ferrari the Stang is to the Vette. I love the fact that you can get so much bang for the buck. I will say that the Stang is a lot easier to get in and out of. Go ahead and get a Stang, you will love it.

Haha, I just thought that was funny. I guess we can add spelling corrections as number (5).

Thanks for all the replies Gang ... A couple folks have asked about the common mods and discussion topics we have going on over at CORVETTEFORUM.COM (which is where I hang) .... I JUST did LG Longtube Headers with a ram air intake and a tune ... stock CAT BACK (muffflers ... ) ... picked up about 40 BHP over stock - quite a diff in Seat of the pants ... this is a real common lite duty mod set C6 folks are doing ... of course plenty of those that are doing what some of you Stang guys are - cams, heads, Superchargers, etc .... the hot new topic on Corvetteforum is the new LS3 ... this thing has come out of the factory much more wicked and tunable than many have thought ... there are folks already hitting 500 hp with that motor and some fairly simple mods ... I am happy with my 05 really although one can always use more power ...
Last year in Feb I went to Spring Mountain Driving school in Las Vegas for a 3 day HP driving course. I am now high speed certified ... I have done a few HPDE / track days at BIR here in MN ... I didn't this year because of A). My demanding job and B) the wear and tear on my machine (tires about shot after 15K but I flog it hard ....
I like to hang out on the back roads of Western Wisconsin near Lake Pepin ... GREAT hi perf driving in those areas ...
I imagine some of you look at us C6 guys the way some of us look at the Porsche gang ... a little uppity ... actually, most of my C6 pals are not like that - we are CAR GUYS and the CARS we happen to have are VETTES ... but me and my gang like em all ... if it is a cool ride then we like them .... I can certainly afford a pricier ride than what I have but I happen to like the regular C6 ( although I lust still for a Z06 but no removable roof keeps me away). I like GT3s a lot too but I am a bigger guy and the C6 is nice and accomodating and comfy for me ...
Enjoying reading what some of you all are doing to your RUSTANGS (oops ... did I say that ?? ) .... ;-)

OK that was a stupid joke [sm=icon_rofl.gif]But I did see a C6 ZO6 for like a 100k on eBay and it had a custom removable roof but there is a company that will mod a ZO6 to have a removable roof but that
could make it unstable at high speeds.i can't wait to see the corvette ss blue devil whatever
