So you might be putting yourself in the same situation you are already in, unless you really think a base corvette is going to satisfy you.
I was going to test drive one first to make sure the torque was satisfying enough for my long term purposes. I figured an LS3 based C6 would be plenty of engine for me. But you have a point there..maybe a FI 370Z will be faster in the long run. I just need to factor in the cost of $8-$10k, install time, reliability factor, as well as losing my warranty on my car. A 'vette would cost less than that setup, would still carry the warranty, and hopefully would be very reliable.
