Speaking of absurd comparisons, this all started because you all were absurd enougb to compare this 370z with a c6 corvette. An even larger performance gap than my cx5 to your 370z...
whoa now. reading comprehension needs to gain some attribute points.....i did not mention a vette once so far. got the wrong guy.


i mean i can if you want......like the OP wasted money buying a base model when everyone knows the Z51 is really the only choice if not buying GS/Z06/ZR1.......

If I was buying a Vette. It would be nothing less the the Z51. I'm just waiting to get the motorhome paid for so that I can get my Ferrari 488 GT3.

I really want a F40. But those are like hens teeth. And if you find one. They want a kings ransom. Even if it's in rough shape.

That's why I gave up on owning one. To even get a basket case and to redo it will cost both balls.

True. Really though, that's just out of my income/viability range. I make around 6 figures a year (barely), and have a house, land, etc. to deal with. If I were older and had all of it paid off, I still wouldn't invest that much in 1 single-use item. A retirement estate, maybe, but not a car.

I thought the newer Stingray version of the Vette was a ladies car
Less power,narrower wheels/tires
