I'd get another one, but it'd be an '06-'07 with the motor built for e85. In many places you're far more likely to get a ticket in a STi vs a Camaro too.

If I HAD to have a new Z06, I would have done it too. Sweet ride!

They're both nice performance Chevys, but I definitely see how they project different vibes. As a guy still driving an Impala and looking around I notice this stuff, and it's going to play a part in what I eventually buy. You gotta drive the one that fits your vibe, congrats on the 'vette.

You went from a 4 seater world class sports car, to a world class sports car that competes with exotics. Congratulations man, that's a stellar buy.

Very nice and to have the money to even have a 1LE, never mind a new Corvette must be nice as well. If you got the money, go for it and own these nice super cars. I suppose if I did, I might do the same thing. I often wonder how some of you do it when I see these super cars and also the 60-90K trucks- how you can afford it, without being a Dr, Lawyer or some other executive- or perhaps you are. And own a nice house. I must have missed something somewhere along the line!

Amazing car, nothing wrong with that move. Just wondering what was the total cost close to 100K? Down here in South Fl I see them with 500 miles going in the mid 70's. I would rather have new too. Either way thats a amazing car you will love.

And yes, I will track this thing—I’m fully aware of all of the cooling upgrades I will have to do. I’ll also need to get new wheels, too. But now I need to focus on the new pool we just bought and buying my daughter a car, before I mess around with that.

Nice car. I still would have opted for the manual. I hate Autos in general.
I find it strangely amusing that your avatar is that of a save the manuals shirt; yet, you bought an Auto. But, to each their own.

I had an A8 before and I’ll always lean on technology and raw metrics more than appeasing to purist values. But, if I had better choices, I would have picked up a manual transmission car in almost any other color. But, you can’t order these anymore and I was stuck with what was on the lots.
