NFS4: How the hell you could tell that it wasn't a normal Corvette??? Do you have some sort of super-vision or something? Damn...did you look thru the bodywork and see the internals?

That's some good stuff man...keep it up..talk to Anand and see if he can make a car section in this thread or if he can review cars..or let you review them..hehe

reviewing a car that you haven't spent time driving and testing is just not cool in my book. :p

I had actually seen that pic quite a while ago in one of the print mags or it may have been online. The wheels are a giveaway that it ain't a true Vette b/c no Vette owner in their right mind would put those mofos on their car;)

Hee hee - I was wondering the same thing. I actually did not think the wheels looked too bad (and there is no denying the 'Vette looks much nicer than the horrid Evoq show car).

ok that FORD IS FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
FORD piece of crap, that car is like 35-40G?!?!?!?!
thats crazy for a FORD!!

the best car for the best price is the BMW M3
THAT IS ONE BAD ASS CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!
45G and it will kick the vettes ass and take 3 of your friends with you also
wish they would bring the Nissan Skyline over to the US!!!
i know they offer it from a Texas company but its not the same as going into a Nissan dealer and picking one up!!
everyone would buy that car!!! its like 25G in Japan
prob be around 35G here in the US stupid taxes and tariffs!!!

that Lexus SC430 is not a rip off of the Mercedes SLK the convertible Hard Top has been around forever!! the SC430 is much more rounder than a SLK

jmman that pic is a corvette hardtop another piece of junk!!!

as u can see i really dont like American cars!

lol.. in your dreams.. the M3 is nice, but the Vette is faster, and the Z06, more in the pricerange of the M3, will absolutely BLOW the DOORS off the M3.

and sound better at the same time.

I don't have the energy to really point out how stupid you are right now unfortunately..

Valhalla1 fortunaly i do have the time and energy to tell you how stupid you are

Road and Track did a comparison test with the M3 and the Z06 and the Z06 is 47G and the M3 is 45G

its 0-60 is 4.6 compared to the M3s 4.7. the chevette has more HP 385 to M3s 333 and the M3 is almost 300 lbs heavier the vette also has more torque 385 to 269

ok so it has more 52 more HP, 116 more lbs of torque, and weighs 300 lb less!! but it only beats it by 1/10 of a second?? piece of crap american junk!!

hahaha.. obviously you are incredibly stupid.

the car has more HP
more torque
and is lighter

the advertised 0-60 time of the Z06 is 4.0 flat I believe.. the driver didn't know what he was doing. I love guys like you who know nothing about cars except what the magazines say (who get paid big $$$ to &quot;sway&quot; their articles one way or another)

so your gonna believe Chevy instead of unbias ppl from a car magazine??
or someone who will distort the truth for their own gain???!!!
freaking idiot
here are some other sites that did their own test

http://www.angelfire.com/ny4/exoticarsparadise/chevrolet_corvette_z06.htm

http://www.jupiter.spaceports.com/~...sts/CobraRvsVipervsZ06/CobraRvsVipervsZ06.htm

http://www.pebblenet.com/conceptcarz/carChosen.asp?car_id=1574

and ya the chevette has more of those things and can only beat it by 1/10 of a sec
that is sorry american engineering for you always putting bigger engines in cars instead of trying to improve a smaller engine!!

put a V8 in2 the M3 and it will run circles around it
