Did the Corvette take a break somewhere since 1954?

For a DD I'd love....now don't kill me....any Evo above the VII

I love those cars. The new ones are ugly but the interior is nice.

Eh the few I've been in were pretty uncomfortable. I'd love a CTS-V or a Subaru Legacy GT

I'll run you me on spray you off spray? I'd hopefully be about 3-4 tenths behind you on a 125 shot

Oh I've never been for a ride in one. I just love the idea of AWD, the stock racing seats, the looks (especially the VIIII) and the ability for them to go 11's on the stock turbo! However how does a 4 cylinder get 16mpg in the city and 22mpg on the highway!? What the **** is up with that!?
