Default Picked up a BADASS GAS GETTER
1999 Corvette FRC with 86,000 Miles, Very Clean I would give the Exerior a 9 & Interior a 7.5

I had been pricing Imports & looking for something fun & quick that would get decent gas mileage between driving from Garland to my place in Royse City & picking up my daughter on the weekends out in Scurry. Well I researched Imports like GSRs & Hondas & I just couldnt bring myself to drive one everyday. Plus they all where getting right at 35mpg Hwy & mids 20s in town.

Then a Buddy said have you ever considered a Vette, He said the FRC & Z06s are known for getting 30+ mpg. Well I took his advice & now a Proud Vette Owner.
