I should ditch my STI for a new GT500, especially if I can get one at sticker.
I would highly recommend it man...the supercharger whine is like crack

too bad you are so far away.. i am dying to run a GT500, around here its all old farts with them
lol...my problem is all the vette owners around here are on the verge of entering the nursing home. I'm positive they wouldn't be able to drive their car to its full potential.
I'm only 40. Not all Vette owners are old! Well, 40 is ancient compared to the majority of the people here.

Yo ed, 40 isn't that bad. You still like a kid tho so it's all good.

And to the OP, your car is intimidating on all levels, I have to say tho I'd race you in a school bus just to see you go.

40 is a young whipper snapper compared to vette owners around here...seriously they are all grey hairs (if they have any hair left).

I'm 28...maybe they think its a gt with poser badges?

Only tires that are gonna hook 550+ HP are slicks.I canthook my street tires @ the track w/ my 333 hp, lol! Take it to the track, your heart will pound @ the line. When your done w/ 1st run you will know it was worth the drive there.
True, I'm sure it would be a heck of a time....and I'd see how bad I am at running through the gears lol

29 here, I was 27 when I bought mine. Honestly I think the younger generation is more so attracted to the C6 more so than any other Corvette generation. Most of the Vette owners I see out here are young guys...


But your GT500 is nice. I went to have my Stang serviced and the salesman pretty much tried to force me to buy one...lol

I almost bit...
