@camirocz a couple of things...1)i barely paid anything for the car..it was missing the engine and tranny when i got it 2)i build probably 12 engines, and 3 cars a year...and honeslty couldnt tell you how many cars i have owned, and gotten rid of..so i know what kind of them i want..

that being said i think the vette is awesome....but if i park it at work, or the mall i usually walk out at the end of the day and see 3 other '10 vettes parked next to it...its just become "not my thing"..

@benchmstr Oh rteally ?a heavily built z06 is more expensive than a chevelle so why arent you driving a chevelle?i do own a c6 2007 z06 and i d never trade it for a chevelle.If you ever drive a z06 you ll never want a chevelle.

@camirocz thats mint though...i built a chevelle for a friend about 3 years ago...total build cost including the car was $16,000...it ran high 9's in the quarter, and with a spring swap competes, and is a classed racer in SCCA...i currently own a heavily built 2010 z06....i would trade it for his chevelle any day of the week

@benchmstr Really6a mint chevelle ss 454 cost at least 50 k today.then add what you need to keep up power wise then brakes and suspension and you ll still be quite a ways behind.I love the chevelle ss but it was a great car in 1970.Today s porsche 911tt, z06, ,zr1 and gtr are far superior cars in every way!In fact its not even fair to compare.

[benchmstr]

@camirocz how much does a brand new GTR cost?....put the same ammount into a chevelle and we will have this talk again

Best looking Chevelle ever made. There might be faster Japanese cars, and I like them, I had an RX-7, but they'll never make a car that looks as good as old muscle cars like this one.

Slap the slicks on and rev that trans brake a little more...lol
