I'm having fun with the car. Still getting use to the it.

Enjoy your ride. :tup: Just remember that it is part of being in the Vette community to wave at fellow Vette's when passing them. :hello: I guess that isn't part of the Z community as I waved at a fellow Z and they didn't wave back :stirthepot:

I'm sorry OP, but that car is hideously ugly. I would take the Z and its fewer horses ANY DAY.

To the OP congrats!:tiphat: My girl Vanity and I will never part, i'm a Z driver for life.:happydance:

Not on the street. You get to 40mph hour waaaaaayyyyy too fast. 60 is immediate. Its not like the Z where you stomp on the gas for fast accel and you can work the gas peddle for slower but more entertaining throttle-play. The vette its either slow crawl or lightning fast. Unless you plan on being on a track every Saturday? A Vette isn't a whole lot of fun.

Respect to the 193mph top speed on a base vette. Wow.

Congrats but why is the thread in this section?

Japanese cars will out run Americans. Fail

Everyone switchs out the Z for whatever it may be for example 5.0, Camaro's, Evo's, STI's, etc. But when you drive down the street and see that 370z slowly creeping by, you wanna be the one driving it lol. I remember some guy on here totaled his Z, bought an Evo and went on a rant that it has Brembos, AWD, Recaro's, Turbo, etc and it's so much fun and he loved it. A month later he made a thread in the classifieds trying to sell his Evo to get another Z or trade the Evo for a Z lol. The Z just has something unique about it, don't get me wrong I thought about those other cars but when I get back in the Z and drive I feel at home.

i couldn't agree more with these last two replies :icon18:
Z's are the best affordable fast cars in my opinion, best handling as well in my opinion and you get a lot for your money. lets not mention is the fastest V6 engine... i mean I'm sure we can all keep talking about the Z on and on and on... americans don't know much about cars (my opinion). they know how to put you on a straight away and say "go" and you just go... thats why they race "Nascar" cus once you on 6th gear you keep going round and round and don't do ****. put em in Formula1 and they'll be out on the first curve lol... anyways their car are designed for a straight away and thats it and the interior is so poor. but if you happy with it thats all what matters...hope you won't open a thread trying to sell it or trade it because you regret it now.
nobody ever regret their car in the first 2 months... after those 2 months, the real is back !!! lol

I have been a Z addict for 30 some odd years. Why? The answer is simple and somewhat unexplainable -- It's a Z, that's why. BTW -- I am excluding all 2+2's and first generation 300ZX (Z32).

wow, circle jerking parties.

congrats on your vette. 09 with low mileage good find......
iv'e owned both and loved both.... one's an apple and one's an orange can't compare them.............imho though for the money both cars are tops in there class. hands down both win best bang for your buck..............enjoy...........

don't forget to wave at other vette drivers it's kind of a vette thing......
don't know why z drivers never wave back......

:iagree:, but I do like the 1st Gen Z32............

I will say congrats. I personally think the Z looks better, interior and exterior. However, I respect guys who like other looks. If everyone liked the same looks, every car would be the same, and that would be boring. Corvettes aren't the worst cars in the world. Especially the brand new ones.

Seriously. I remember when people showed a lot more respect in these forums. It's one thing to share your opinion, but it's another to be a **** about it.
