The first time my friend took me for a ride in his, he turned off the traction control and had one of those "surprises". Almost completely lost it. Lesson learned.

The 08ish years should really be dropping in price now right? Earlier Z06s can already easily be found in the 40s. With the C7 out I'd think there'd be significant price drops for used C6 Zs too.

In other words, driving an LS7 will make you re-evaluate your financial responsibility.
This made me LOL.
