Wow man that's a really nice vette. What numbers stock is she putting down??

Mustang_NTriangle

Thanks man!! Stock it is 350 hp and 375 tq because it is manual with 3.42 gearing vs. auto is 360 tq. Auto has an optional 3.15 gearing.

Car is extremely fast and fun to drive.

Sounds good! Any plans on modding her??

How does the car's power feel in comparison to your current car?

Nice Vette!

Nope going to stay completely stock this time around. I live in MASS and emissions is the reason why I am selling my mustang in the first place, otherwise, I would still have it.

To be honest car is plenty fast, I got 55 out of first gear on the test drive

Soldier GT

Wow! Sounds good bro. Once again congrats!

Thanks. It is totally different from my stang - with my mustang car power is much higher revs. The vette is a monster to be honest in 6 speed form. I thought for sure that I would notice it to be slower but certainly not in the first two gears and there is approximately 500 pound weight difference.

Interestly, enough doing research 2004 Z06 is 0-60 is 3.9 seconds (with 405 hp and 385 tq) where as 2004 vette coupe manual is like 4.8 seconds (w/ 350 hp and 375 tq) and auto is .4 slower. Honestly, I don't think 0-60 time is a high as GM states but seat of pant feel is awesome with the manual.

I opted for coupe vs Z06 for removable glass roof, car feels very nice and brakes are awesome much better than my cobra brakes.

The good news is I will drive the car like it should be driven - fast, unlike most vette owners.
