Blast me and my non vette knowledge. He has a 2000, it isnt a convertable, it is for sure an automatic. Is that still considered a hardtop (i think the roof comes off in the middle).

Cheers

a hard top is mostly considered a FRC(99 - 00) or a z06 by most of the vette owners. You can say coupe, targa top, or vert to explain a regular c5 or obviously a vert c5.

Back to what I was saying I thought you ment frc at first because of year and hardtop in details of car. Also the 13.30 time et I gave you is no unicorn for these cars and as some people proved it can be and is done regular basis.

No blasting intend.

Sorry.

The term hardtop is only used for the non-removable roof so they call what he has a Coupe.

I am curious, what will a 2000 C5 M6 hardtop run? A friend of mine has one; his only mod is a K&N intake. We've been talking about lining them up, and he swears his vette is going to kick my WS6's ***.
