He's had it a year and to be honest I'm tired of listening to him moan about it. His DD is an Infiniti G37S and he's on all the time about how rubbish the Vette is by comparison....and he's right. We go to lunch and it rattles in the dash...the doors feel flimsy when you pull them closed....he's had it in for warranty work twice.

He said "Damn, I paid Porshe Cayman money for a sh$t box with a nice motor"...and I said "Yeah....you did."
Meh, he also paid Porsche Cayman money for GTR performance. The C6 Vette has been labeled a lot for having a cheap build quality and interior, but ohhhhh that engine

Kinda split on whether I want the C6 Z06 or whatever the base C7 will be.

x 10 I don't know if I will ever be able to spend my hard earned cash on a so called "american" vehicle after driving hondas and now a nissan...the quality is incomparable between the two....not that I judge people who do, I just can't see me doing it....what you spend your money on is your business, and mine is mine...

Shaved door handles see image 1, 2 and 5: https://www.google.com/search?um=1&h....1.cQQMLCQ1Prg It's basically taking the door handles off.

And yes, I did say that!

Lol, I'm here for the shock factor.

Not really sure how much it would all be, but a pretty penny I'm sure. It basically relocates an unlocking mechanisim to another part of the car or you can get a remote opener. Not really safe if I ever wreck the car and people need to get into it to get me out.

so basically it's a "better to look good than to feel good" type handle.... yea-that doesn't sound like a very good idea....

Ms.BC20, don't be jelly, Z-Luv is everywhere in this forum in every post.... babe!!

Regarding the domestic car... now you know why I will call them "Malibooooo" and "Averager"....

I got back to my 14 years old A4, I feel like driving... I am comparing a new Averager with only 12k km mileage to a 14 years old A4.... oh well.....

Unless you really downgrade to 89 gas to cut cost.....

But I'm sure that won't happen!!

I said you were right, it's not a downgrade.

But 2-3 mpg sacrifice for that much more performance is worth it imo.

But the insurance is definitely way cheaper on the Z06 than the 370Z.
