I would hope so, being that it's 17 years newer and all.

 

You mean like a leather dashboard instead of plastic?

I'm not going to argue the C6Z vs NSX thing. It's dumb.

 

+1 the list could easily be shortened

but i can't argue here:



i don't know why, but i fell in love with this car the first time i saw it...

 

Shit...even the newer NSXs

 

Just the price and power.

Don't get me wrong, I love Hondas but I think for the money the S2000 is a much better value. If the NSX had 500hp stock then I would be more impressed, I still love seeing them on the street. When I went to Nopi there was one there that ran a high 14, it was primered.

I love Hondas, but if I had the money I would probably not buy one. I need to drive one to be able to say that with any degree of certainty.


I wouldn't buy a Corvette either though.

 

Haha. I love it. You cite the highest price you've ever seen and tie it in with the slowest quarter-mile time you've ever seen.

You're right, you'd hate the NSX.

 

LOL........You'd be disappointed with the interior quality of a new Z06. Although it is much improved and not bad overall, people don't buy it for the luxurious interior appointments. If I wanted a nicer interior, I'd just spend half of what a new Z costs and pick up a G35. GM has responded slightly by offering better leather options for 2008. I could care less cuz' I'm gonna mod my car to suit my tastes anyways. A couple trips thru Caravaggio's website will help improve the Corvette interior quality tenfold. Hence $900 for a fucking steering wheel........but it looks good.

At least GM hit the mark by providing supercar performance for chump change compared to the Euros the Vette slaughters. I think they (GM) would get two thumbs up if they actually spent some time looking at some of the Audi or other euro interiors and offered an interior upgrade for the vette. I'd gladly pay a few thousand more for a nicer interior.

 

Rich, what kind of mpg does your g/f get with her G35? I feel like I'm flying through gas and definitely not getting the advertised low-mid 20s on the highway.

 

Dunno............I'll check the computer when we leave work. I think advertised is like 16 city and 24 highway mpg? We both drove separately to Annapolis.........funny how I get 5 more mpg's with the vette. You need to stop racing those minivans.

 

Looking at the prices I guess they aren't too over priced, I still probably wouldn't buy one. If I had to choose between the Vette and the NSX though, I would go with the NSX, I'm a little Honda biased.

So Dave, if it makes you happy, you changed my mind about them.
