I decided that I want a brand new C6 Corvette... but I can't afford my TT Firehawk and the 'Vette.

I have a choice, keep the boosted 'Hawk (weekend car) or I can sell it and my LT1 daily driver and just buy a new C6 and pimp that every day as my daily beater.

I did make a thread if you want to see pictures of the kit:

I said it before to ya, I like the C6's but your Hawk is bad ***. You crazy for wanting to tear that apart. You have to do what makes you happy.



KEEP THE TURBO HAWK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm single again and I'm wanting to play the dating game. Having a gemstone of a Firehawk locked in the garage is something I take pride in, but I'm thinking a daily driver C6 would be a better choice for a 26 year old bachelor...

Here's the color/wheels I want.... how about this?

i like the C6's personally, if I had the money I'd get one. if someone buys my ride I just might be able to get one.

You know I'll probably regret it down the road but someone offered me 70k for my car a month and a half ago. I was thinking about it and getting a new LS7 vette, but I said no thanks. They take too long to build just the way you want it and it's different. Oh well, good luck on your decision. Andy.

OUCH! Tough decision. Vettes are so much nicer though and a much better ride.

Depends on how much you like working on cars. If you dont buy the vette and drive it, if you do keep the firebird..

As you can tell I've made this Firehawk into my hobby.

I'm actually wanting to stop tinkering for a while though, but man it's a tough choice. That's why I made the poll, just curious to see what others would do. ~Joshua

I can see how tough your choice is.. cuz you're 26. But if you're out dating, the girls aint gonna dig you hangin out in the garage "playing" with your car every night (once it gets serious). You'll find this out real quick.
Girls either LOVE it that you have a nice car (C6) or HATE it and think your ego is bigger than life. If they hate your C6, they are still too immature to appreciate your hard work and well earned money.
I've had sooooo many cars... Porches, Street Rods, 4 or 5 F-body, 32 Ford hot rod..etc. While they were all fun, the "nice" ones (as the girls put it) were always the ones I wasn't playing with on the weekends.
