I've driven one. Fast as hell, but I could never get used to the driving position of something like that. I'd rather drive an Evo or STi. Almost as fast, but way more comfortable.

I don't know, I just wasn't sold on it. I can think of better ways to spend 50 grand.

Factory turbocharged vette? Am i missing something? I know GM turboed firebirds in the mid-late 80's but i never heard of a vette coming turboed from the factory. Specs and pics are needed.

All I am saying is that if I had 53 grand to buy a car, I would not buy a corvette. I would probably buy a STi. It's almost as fast, well....unless you're on a racetrack. In real world conditions on the street, I would put a STi against a Vette any day. And with the 20 grand you save, you could make it WAY faster than the Vette in EVERY way.

I'm not trying to start a flamewar dude. I like STis and the vettes for their own attributes, let's not lower ourselves to the dead-horse speed/money arguement.
