    My ex and I had a vehicross back when they were new. Everything you said was spot on but damn I loved that vehicle. Crazy I forgot I even owned one it’s been that long ago. That vehicle could be on the road today and not really look “dated”.
    Back then people had no clue what it was and like you said there weren’t many of them around at all.
    Only Isuzu I’ve ever owned. Never had a single issue with it put 100,000 miles on it and sold it when it went out of warranty. Makes no sense why I never even considered to buy another Isuzu product again. Lol
    Thank for the memory!

    Ride safe,

    Just saw one a month or so ago. I walked up and thought,”damn, this thing still looks cool as shit.” Too bad they didn’t sell better.

    That looked pretty sweet actually.

    He had the Ironman edition I think. They had sweet Recaro seats, but damn did that thing suck gas like it was going out of style.

    I always felt like that thing could drive up the side of a building if it wanted to. The 4x4 system seemed ahead of its time and pretty serious.

    That’s the exact model I had the IronMan edition. The leather inside and Recaro Seats were awesome.
    The back seat which was almost impossible to get to was raised up a couple inches. It was crazy how much better that set up was once you were in the back.
    The 4 wheel drive system was awesome. It crawled around like a Jeep Wrangler but the short wheelbase made for a rough ride. Was very unique vehicle. Being honest if they still made em exactly that same way I’d buy another one.

    Ride safe,

    So a car with 16% more hp, 34% more torque, an automatic transmission and a suspension set up for the track beats a Cayman by 0.1 seconds around Grattan? Inconceivable.jpg
    :D

    You left out the 39.8% price premium (over base Z51 vette, that still has more options than the Porsche) to go slower by 1 tenth.

    you also left out the porsche would be worth the same in year 2 of ownership and probably year 5. where the vette would be 75% cheaper

    But it would still be slower.

    Maybe it's got the lunar lander suspension option.

    It's slower because of all the extra weight in my wallet.

    Don't care. CandD, using a form of constructive criticism, politely said the C8 was a POS in the quality department. Drive that everyday and see how much the discount buys ya in disappointment. I bet it's gonna be a lot. :D

    Both are nice cars. I'd happily drive either one.

    They did say the Vette was a pre production model.

    Early production, not pre production.
