2005 C6 Vs My Z28

This is my first post in this section but here are my observations on the new corvette.

Yesterday while on my way to work, I was crusing @ 75MPH on the HWY when a new vette comes up along side me and wants to play. I figure why not? I down shift into 3rd and we hit it. Here are my observations: The new vette has some nice exhost pipes, they look nice as they fade away in the distance.

I see this guy every day on the HWY so the next time I see him coming up behind me I'll just take off and by the time I get a couple of hundred yards we should be side by side, I'll throw on my flashers and call it a victory!

Hell ya those LS2 motors are bad A$$. Plus, I was watching Car and Driver and they said that the C6 would cost about 1k LESS than the C5. You can get one loaded out the wazoo for about 48k. Now that is awsome
