It's nice. But I still want a low rider.

Plus you're American and it's not fair. We get fucked up the arse in England. We pay more for cars, petrol, insurance, tax. etc.

Cars are an absolute luxury in the UK. In the US they are a right.

Very nice though. But new cars are so uncouth. ;)

Still I'd find it hard to choose which car to drive. Both yours are too nice.

Very true. And not only England, lol. I bet we pay double for a new 'Vette than you put down, prasad.


Its nice, though. What's in it? 5.7 V8? You got one with stick or autobox (looks like stick to me)?

Whats it like to drive exactly? Handling wise? Did they sort out the C5's suspension problems? You still got leaf springs, dont ya? :p

But bleedin' nice, mate, congratulations!

The engine is a 6.0 V8 LS2 Pushing 400 HP at the crank and its an AUTO :( , but who the hell cares 400 hp is tons of horsepower and my other car(the hemi) comes with 400 pounds of torque but thats a diff beast of its own.
Glad i had leaf springs, the ride is bumpy as it is and i rode in several sport cars and this cars ride quality was like night and day compared to several sports cars.
Like U said before "u dont want a track day setup for a daily driver". LOL

Ps: I have no idea how to test handling and this is not europe u cant just drop by track and say can i take mine for a spin. too many damn rules like roll bars and crap for convertibles. I never heard of suspension problems on the C5's that were past 2002 or newer. But yeah 1997 and down phew u couldnt believe it.

As a cruiser you want comfortable shit, indeed. Too bad of the auto but hey, can't have it all :p

But don't they come at all with sticks?

I don't really like the Corvettes but yours looks better, better design I think.


BTW, you live in a nice place, nice houses :) I'm studiyng in architecture, the houses here in Canada are fucking ugly, most of them. Sorry I couldn't resist to look at the houses.


Have fun with your car.

auto aint bad. some people like the comfort of it. with the performance of a corvette. personally id get it stick because im ALL performance, but its because i could care less about pushing the clutch in and out in traffic.

Nothing say's Small Penis like flashing ya Corvett on the net.

To me it means succesful or rich. I tend to believe that penis size is dependent on genetics and nature rather than choice of car.

Dude i sense a part of jealousy and a part of ignorance and both put together will make an asshole like you.

A GTO big block so he can save on gas? lmao, holmes, lay off the rocks :D

Ay, what about the Vette? I assume you've taken it out already for a couple of power drives. How's the performance? Does it roar it's way through the gears as a Vette should (you got a 4 or 5 speed btw?)? And how does it stack up against your hemi??

when i said save the gas. meaning if u take it ONLY for joy rides once in a while u can save on the gas as opposed to using it as a daily driver. MAN duke me and u think like there a whole horizon worth of difference.

Its 4 speed auto with overdrive and the hemi is no competition lol. The hemi is HEAVY(4400 pounds). Some reason these vettes(c6) dont roar like c5's they are very subtle and slightly roary but no whining or whissing.

I'm not trying to hate or anything, but really if you're able to take magazine worthy pictures of your car why fall extremely short of posting slightly more convincing pictures to remove all doubt?

lol, i sort of got your point, but c'mon, saying to an european the phrases "GTO big block" and "saving on gas" without a denial in the sentence sparks weird responses :p
