Drove a Stingray w/ Z51 pack yesterday (w/ manual, plus mag ride & sport exhaust).

At first I was like: :hmm:
Then I was: :eek:
Then: :twisted:

This from a guy (me) with some seat time in nice sports/supercars: it's very, very good. A McLaren it ain't, nor is it an SLS Black (but they're 5-6x more money), but for performance I'd compare it favorably to a Ferrari California or an R8 V8. The rev-matching is trick, and nice when you aren't wanting to H/T, and the overall fit and finish is miles ahead of any previous `vette.

Many kudos to GM, you guys finally made a complete world class sports car. :thumbsup:
