As a sport owner with a few mods, I will say yes. I like having the LSD, big brakes and tires. I've lowered the car and improved the ride. I'm installing some aero pieces that will improve the looks. I've spent about $3000 and wish that these mods could have been options for a coouple grand more than I had to pay. But think of this, what car is available from the factory with the looks and performance we have? WRX STI, Mitsu EVO, neither available in a vert. Yes the corvette will out perform and has great looks but look at price. So I'm happy.
