Corvette has always held a special place in my heart. I guess a Vette would be my dream car so like I said given the choice of a Corvette (for a second vehicle) or a Camaro. I am taking the Corvette 100% of the time |

i figured after the labor and parts/tune I would in for about 34k....I figured screw it and bought the 1ss with 455 hp for 37.5 k and still have the warranty of 3/36/ 5yr/50 powertrain. I know the Corvette would be faster all the way around than the Camaro due mostly to the power to weight ratio but the new car vs used car outweighed it for me as I love both cars |

I'll race you with the 'bu. She wants a new car anyways. Sounds like time for a turbocharger big enough to blow up the engine after my first run, a Fast and Furious sized shot of NOS to make sure it's really blown up, and some straight line only 12" drag radials on the Malibu to make sure I don't go anywhere except straight to the finish line.

I sold my 2013 Grand Sport for a '17 1LE...
After owning a few vettes (including a C7), this 1LE was such a wise choice. The GS was awesome, but not in the same league when you take the latest tech into account. WOW!
