until quite recently, the fastest car i have ever been in is my relatively stock WS.6. i have always loved vette's, but have never so much as even ridden in one. all that changed over the christmas break. not only was i afforded the oppty to drive a vette... but it was a supercharged lingenfelter ZO6! it was a purely sexual experience having 600hp at my fingertips. the car felt like it was on rails! i didn't even really get to put my foot in it, but i definitely felt the difference. i don't think my T/A will ever feel the same.

now i want a vette! but not just any vette... i want a top of the line, ***** to the wall vette!

Ah yes, the thrill of a highly-modded 'Vette is easy to fall in love with.

I'm sure, however, that your WS6 monthly payment is a little easier to fall in love with than that of the 'Vette! (I love fast 'Vettes, I am just trying to make you feel a little better about your car)

oh i wouldn't want the payment, that's for sure. i would however love the power and the prowess of such a car.

i feel bad for it too. the guy that owns it treats it like ****. i'd really expect better from a guy who owns an arsenal of vette's (10), a ferrari and a porche 911 turbo.

Get heads/cam/intake/exhaust/prochager/better clutch/9" rear for your WS6. You'll make at least 600hp and the drivetrain will hold it. And you'll save a bunch of money over buying a 600hp lingenfelter Vette.
