exactly. I personally hate how the Z06 isn't a hatch, the regular ones looks better to me. especially if you're going to build the motor getting a regular vette is the way to go.

Exactly while I used a non Z06. Besides I have a C6 Z06 also!

honestly that is one heck of a trade...that vette is BAD... but his mustang was a super nice car also...

200 mph?? I don't blame you!

the cool thing is when you own a mustang you're part of a special club...when you own a vette you're part of a special club...same way when u own a harley...only way i wouldnt trade a mustang for a c5 and up is if i had a shelby gt500...a 2002 z06 is a stock upper 11s. car....i love my 05 gt but if i didnt have it..i can't lie i'd have a c5

I am loving the Vette. It is a new experience for me. It is a much different car, you sit very low, the car handles like its on rails and the twin-turbos build power much differently as they spool than my KB did. The sound of the cammed and ported LS1 is very unique, like a Ford Mod motor is unique. I am digging the 6-speed and so is my 19 year old son. I am re-uphosltering the seats this weekend with the new seat covers Neil included in the trade.
I think we will both be happy on this deal. Neil got a great Stang. It has been a great car for me and I have every receipt for every modification, part and service. The black paint is flawless. I would love to have the opportunity Neil has to own a Stang and a Vette but two kids in college means I am just not able to do that. So after 5 years of S197 it will be C5 time for a while. U still have a fox to play with. We are converting it from an AOD to T5 right now in the garage.

congrats on the Vette.
at least you didnt sell your soul, still got the fox.
he didn't want to trade you for the fox body?

maybe he did but the fox wasn't up for sale/trade.

Grats to both of you. Both cars looks great . Always been a fan of the Corvettes, and obviously I like Stangs too .

both killer cars...I thought the offer for a trade was a joke.

not sure who got the better deal.
