Vette(s): 2005 Daytona Sunset Orange Metallic Coupe --------------------- Sold 1974 T-top, 4 spd to BillKS
That is a kewl car.  I'd take the big V-8 too, but, don't knock the turbo 4 too much.  My wife had a VW Jetta with 1.8L Turbo and that thing could really set ya back in the seat some.  No trouble passing, got 33mpg on the hiway and had it up over 100 with more left.

Um....would you guys hate me if I sold my Vette and bought one?  I'm very much considering it.

I have no room for two "toys". I barely have room for one.

It's just with as many problems as my Vette has and the amount of money I'd have to dump into it to get it right, I'd probably save money by buying a mean looking, better running, 2010 Camaro Convertible!  (At least it is still a Chevy! Big%20smile)

Maybe the cover off the C3 is about the same size as the new camaro and we can hide them from the bosses in the geerage......Wink
