i dont know how many of ya'll remember, but the viper used to get its butt whooped when it first debuted with a lil over 300 hp v10. its come a long way and so has the vette.

as for u having friends with you, well to each his own. you might want to consider an m5 so your friends can at least have leg room.

Leg room? nah, I have people begging me for a ride in my car, they can suffer if they really want to ride in it that bad :lol:

wow... i could never stand being in such confined spaces in a sports car.

I also tend to sit close to the steering wheel because it's the "proper" way to truely enjoy a sports car, and for "spirited" driving :lol:

I just found some new info on the c6 z06.

Another corvette you might want to check out. (It's stock btw)

Close to me a friend's dad owns a MK IV supra which runs a 9.6 1/4mile, heavily modified with nitrous, running around 1050bhp and 1250bhp with nitrous. Its his run around! uses it daily. fair play to the man.
