Cool! They are SWEET, but ya know...............I'm very thankful that I own a "Classic Vette." Heck, I'm REALLY THANKFUL that I own 2 vettes and maybe in the future when I become a famous artist () I can pay cash for a new "Ultimate Vette."

I've read all the recent articles on the ZR1 in the car magazines, and this is one AWESOME Corvette Shocked

! At $100k+, this car sets yet another benchmark for America's true sports car.

It is very clear that the sights are set on winning high end European car enthusiasts. Unfortunately this price point knocks out the "average" buyer....although the C6 Z06 has been a huge success at $70k+.

I'm anal about driving what I have now. I'd be afraid to let this one leave the driveway. First rock hitting that carbon fiber front fascia would result in a trip to the therapist Ouch

I wonder what the market for it really is.

How many do you think BG will build the first year?

I'm betting that sales will be pretty good for it's class. Although, $100 large sounds pretty hefty there are those who walk among us that earn substancial salaries now.

Much to my surprise I would never have believed that as a young man I would earn the kind of dough that I do now..... and it keeps getting larger, Man, I love this country!!!

Besides this is 1 nice looking vette! Tuxblacray2008-01-05 05:26:42

I am just going to put this out here since we are family, Don't suppose anyone would purchase one for me would ya. thanks I feel better now, only way I will ever see that kind of income is if I start a meth lab run by hookers who are pyshics who play the ponies and lottery.
