I'm one of those that have fallen off the bandwagon for chasing power. I'd turn that $80k (if we're limiting the discussion just to cars) into a DD and a smaller sporty car that I can have fun with on the public roads and not *have* to egregiously break the law just to experience 50% of what it is.

Even still, some of the options up above still make sense.

Does that mean someone is calling the C7 ugly? Or a bad value? Or awful? Nope. In fact, I absolutely love what the C7 is and it's really the first Corvette that I actively *like* the styling of. But that doesn't mean I'd ever think about getting one for myself. But I'd never begrudge anyone else is that's their preference. Just not what I need nor how I'd spend that money.
well when you start reading some of the threads on here, it's all about speed. I can see where you're coming from with not saying "oh it's still a chevy" or "it's american." Some of the people from here that think the Z is the best car out there and nothing can beat it. I like my Z, but it's not the best car out there.
