Na dude....I only have a '03 Cobra and a '06 C6. I just got a great deal on the Cobra a few weeks ago. My wife will be out of country until Sept. I'm not sure how long I'll have it after she gets home.lol I picked it up for $18,900 with 30k on the clock so in a way its sort of an investment. I'm sure after the pully enhaust and tune I will be able to get around $25k for it. A blower for a C6 costs $6k so thats prolly what I'll do with my profit.
I had a GT and a '04 Vette but they are both sold.
I dont actually think I've posted any pictures of the new cobra....when I get home from work I'll make that happen.

Thats one hell of a deal!!!! I'm jealous[:@]
EDIT- I hate to break it to ya, but I have never seen or heard of a blower setup being installed on a C6 for anywhere close to $6K, If you can get it done for that than please let me know when you get yours finished.
Most blower setups on a C6 require a hood swap (which runs about $2K painted).....I think a centrifical procharger might fit without a hood swap,but the procharger alone is close to $8K (without tune...) and supporting mods..

No sh*t!!! If your gonna get a Saleen, it's best to get the base S281 and go his route on saving the extra $10K that he would have paid for the SC and get his own power adder setup.....But 06saleen, I buy the bad driver mod on your win.
J/K.....lol

haha...it was silver GT. You would kill me even if john force was driving my car.lol

My win over the C6 doesn't sound so good
. WTF. Bad driver mod will lose everytime!

LOL. I wasn't doubting my driving skillz! But you have to admit a car thats a sec to sec 1/2 slower to beat that C6, the driver must be really bad.

You may want to rethink the S/C. I hear it takes a ton of money, the down fall of big displacement motors like the C6 is they dont respond as well to power adders. You may want to get a TT set up or maybe the gas over the S/C. IMO of course!

I will agree with the first part, and majorly disagree with the second, the third part is pretty neutral.

I have to admit, my statement was off of hear say. Maybe I misunderstood. I guess the cost of the poweradders for the LS2 motors are very pricey and that may have made me think it did not respond well. Of course I must of gotten bad info on the not responding well to S/C. Sorry guys I stand corrected. The only modded vette's I have seen around here are all Turbo setup's. I would love to see a procharger LS2.

All I know is that I've ridden in my brother's 07 C6 a few times now.....and have even raced him a couple times.
That said, I say it would take a special kind of retarded monkey to lose to a stock or near stock S197 GT in a C6.
