Idaho Sharpshooterthis month's issue of DuPont Registry has a blue one on the cover and a two-page spread.

Beretta682EAwesome car - probably worlds best sport car for the buck.
Has a longer wait list than a Telsa Model S and well worth it.

Always wanted to know what "just sayin" means.

tiggertateDodge has one-upped everyone on shear horsepower with the 2015 Challenger SRT Hellcat. 707 hp blown 6.2 Hemi. NHRA certified 11.3/125 mph on factory tires and 10.8/126 126 mph on slicks.
That said, it's probably a straight line vehicle, not a road racer like the 'Vette.
"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

Woodrow SPlus it is a lot heavier than the vette..thus the extra horses it does have are not nearly enough to make it an equal..on power alone. Handling is a whole other story. Apple and oranges.

cookseyJuST Sayin you don't have to spend mega bucks to have great performance.

tiggertate3130 isn't exactly light, either. The Dodge is 3480. But you can take all three girlfriends out at once, not possible in the 'Vette.

Woodrow SBut the cute girl you pick up in a Vette far exceeds the 3 ugly ones going for the guy in a Dodge SRT

Idaho Sharpshooterthat is one of the selling points of my XK-8 convertible.
A much better looking car than the vette, and room for three gorgeous women. Ha!!

Buy a new Camaro, add a SC and headers and a tune and you are into about another $10K and granted you have a car that can do well in a straight line but it still will not handle as well as a base model C6 Corvette. In 2013 you could buy a base C6 for under $40K from one of the larger dealers as they were being heavily discounted.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

cookseyMine also has a Hotchkiss race suspension. Handles very well. Sits a little too low and is a little rough on bad roads but corners like it is on rails.
