Clean car, I agree they look clean stock, really nice and simple design, throw on some nice wheels and they look awesome. Jimlab (?) on Cz28.com was building one a couple years ago. Was supose to have a prety nasty LT1 in it.

Glad to hear you don't have rice on the brain G, because the previous owner of that RX7 probably sold the car to buy a Z06

hey i thought you were thinking about getting a supra???

you dont have to sell the Z06..its still a great car to cruise around...but if you want to play with the big boys and not break parts all the time...get a supra...or a viper...

dont be afraid of what these guys think...i love the drivability of my C6 and over all fun car...but there is nothing that can beat the feeling of boost and over 800hp to your back...and not have the worry of **** breaking...you can cruise everywhere and still have the ability to stomp pretty much anyone you see on the road..thats is a very good feeling to have

Supras and Vipers don't break parts? Probably because they aren't drag raced very often and Dynojets are easy on drivetrains

Of course, that also applies to Corvettes. For big HP, a nice solid axle type car is the better route.
