Default Saw a C6 today

At least I think it was. It was going the other way on the Boeing Freeway. Couldn't see much of it over the top of the Jersey barrier, but it looked like a new Vette. Yellow, black highlights, little opening in the hood, loud exhaust. I guess it could have been a new Viper....whatever it was it looked & sounded pretty nice!!!

I've seen a few C6s lately... mostly black ones, but I've seen at least one red and one yellow.

Also saw one of the new Mustangs in Saleen trim. Too bad I was in the wife's car, would have loved to race that one!

Haha I don't know if it would have been a sacrific especially when you took that Z06. Really the c6 is about the same perfomance straight line as a C5 z06.

There was a Daytona Orange one at the dealership I live down the street from, with 6 speed all options z51 package it was pretty sweet but they wanted I **** you know 73K for it at the time... And its not there anymore. While I'm sure they would have worked on the price I mentioned 55 and he basically laughed, not in a bad way just like "I hear what your saying and why but it ain't going to happen".

I've seen several c6s around here: silver and maroon....might have seen an orange one...can't remember for sure.

If I weren't looking at building a new house, I'd be looking at buying a c6. For some reason a new house is "more important".
