    I saw a Porsche 959 on the weekend. That looked pretty cool. Get one of those.

    Nothing new under the sun. Bang for the buck answer will always be Corvette unless you're considering something like a Miata/Boxster/Cayman. The Vette is just the biggest, most comfy daily of those by quite a margin unless you're talking c4 corvettes.

    Mustangs and Camaros are great, but unless you need/want the backseat, the dedicated platform and suspension design of the Vette makes it an easy choice. And if you really did want a backseat and were entertaining expensive Mustangs and Camaros you should be looking at BMW M2s.

    So if 2 seater is Ok: Vette, Jag F type, Mercedes SL?, Supra, Nissan Z, Cayman, Boxster, Miata
    if you need a backseat for something: M3, M2, Camaro, Mustang, GR86

    I've never seen a vette out on the road with anything but overweight women or 60yr old dudes with gold chains driving them

    Dave K DaveK über alles!

    Drove a couple or corvettes the last month or three because I thought I wanted a corvette and they are cheap (except for new) and they were cool for a few minutes here or there but for more than an hour or two I’d rather a Miata, golf r or a tt.

    the only corvette that I really liked was a new 2022 but I wasn’t paying $10k over or just getting on a list and not having my firm price or a delivery date.

    Hate mustangs. Not sports cars and don’t feel like harvesting rhubarb.

    I went through the same thing for a couple years and ended up with a C6 Z06. 3,100 lbs., 500 rwhp, 6 speed manual, and none of the new nanny bullshit electronics. The interior is shitty but otherwise I love it. Also it’s a preference thing but I don’t like the look of the C7 or C8, the back of the car looks shitty to me. To each their own.

    I'm hankering for a 430 Scud. If anyone wants my 993 C4 Cab, I have a little cash to kick in.

    I've been driving this 7spd Corvette around the country the last 6 days. In Roanoke for the night and headed up the 81 tomorrow. If you see me, flip me the bird and I'll respond with the same.

    In all fairness. . .after spending the winter using it as a daily, he came to the conclusion it doesn't have a the same utility as the M3 so he just bought this. . .

    I'm personally a German super/hyper sedan fan myself but he said he'll never get rid of the Lotus and buying a truck to make up for it's short comings was worth it. . .:D

    I've personally been a passenger with the German doing 130 plus on the autobahn (with winter tires) . . .while calmly having a conversation with me; I assure you, she was doing triple digits in this picture. . .

    If I didn’t go with the Corvette, it would have been an E92 M3 Comp or AMG C63. Every time I see those cars come up for sale at the same price I paid, I kind of wish I bought one instead, but having a faster car makes me feel better even though it’s just a Chevy.
