Kevin, Yes I fit! ;D Like a glove!  If I ever get into a wreck I know I'm not going to move around very much! It's a 928, front engine, V8. Very much like a corvette only more refined. Although I wouldn't mind getting my hands on the new 500 hp vette that will be coming out next year! ;D |

The 06 has a 500 hp. I still like the Dodge Viper far more. The Viper is a bit more masculine. The Corvette looks a little too much like a c*nt rocket on steroids. At the same time, it is very dangerous driving the $85K Viper when it rains as you slide all over the road.  Further, I cannot imagine shelling out that much money to the companies that gave us the Cavalier, the Lumina, the Corsica, the Celebrity, the Sprinter and the Neon. ;D A good rule of thumb that I live by (with cars) is: If you cannot afford to pay it off in under 24 months, then don't buy it.You also probably do not want to bury yourself in debt over an asset that depreciates 70% or more over the term of the loan either. |

Yes, very nice looking vette. Very much like the race prepared corvette's that they use at Bondurant racing school. Speed Yellow. My wife sent me there for 3 days of racing as a Bday gift and boy was it fun! ;D Learned a lot about car control as well. If you want a laugh you should have seen me trying to get into one of those, with the roll bar in place and me with a helmet on. Talk about tight fit! |

The Bondurant racing school? www.bondurant.comCheck out their Z06 Corvette: lateral acceleration of 1G! That's the force of gravity!  www.bondurant.com/pages/Vehicles.html |
