Lemers...

you planning on getting one?

Lemers · 03-18-2012, 08:17 PM

Yes, yes I am. I need back seats and just more reliable than doing mods to my Z with no warranty issues.

You know I'll hit 200 in a school zone between 700 am and 400 pm if I could.

This car is my doomsday prepping plan for 21 Dec 2012 I can outrun all the highwaymen trying to kill me and take my gas.

Nice. The muscle car choices just keep getting better all the time. I was reading a car magazine and they showed some pics of the 2014 Corvette. It looked really awesome and the base model is around the ZL1 and GT500 price range.

Wonder what its performance numbers will be. Because if it doesn't outperform those cars at the price point, you're paying for the looks and lack of back seat.

Definitely hope so. I'm assuming Chevy had the ZL1 in mind when designing the new Corvette so it should put out better performance numbers.

I need back seats so no corvette until I get the kids out.

Yeah. Corvettes have round lights. Chevy trying to save a few bucks by dipping into the parts bin again?

I'm hoping it's not like that when it hits showrooms.
