If we were talkin bout the C5......yea, i'd take it. I'd loved that body style, very sleek and sexy. I don't like the look of the C6's. I thought it'd grow on me but it hasn't. Just something about it looks cheap.....and I have had a chance to check one out up close. It's purely a cosmetic opinion, i know. But for 45K, looks count. I won't drive something I don't like to look at. So if someone offered me either 45K in cash or an 06 C6.......I'd take the cash, and my GT to the performance shop.

Thanks again to everyone for your comments/suggestions.

I'm not sure how we got a little off topic here. I know I cannot get a GT500 or a Z06 for $45K, and thus I am not looking for one those vehicles. My max that I can spend is $45K so I was hopefull to be able to get a 2005 or a 2006 SC281 or go with a modified GT.

I like the idea of the SC281 because it comes with a warranty (after all the modifications), and the fact that it is limited in numbers. As far as the GT goes, I think I could do a nice job of modding one but to add a supercharger, suspension, brakes etc. will void warranty, won't it? If I'm able to get over my fear of voiding warranty, the other question is finding a "good" tuning shop in the area who can do the add-on's. Anyone know a good place in the Chicagoland area?

Thanks
Hank
