biggest rush of my life.

coldnate · 08-10-2010, 04:01 AM

I'm a CA for BMW in Valencia, CA. We just got a couple of Corvette Z06's in on trades(for the M3). I HAD TO TAKE IT OUT!

shortest, tightest stick I've ever driven. It's just the most unrefined raw naughty dirty sick stupid power I've ever felt in my life. I'm a die-hard BMW fan, and I'm going to get the 1M in a couple of years... but oh my god - there's nothing like american muscle for a quick one night stand.

I was still shaking when I started talking to customers again.

They hit like a sledge hammer to the forehead. Fun cars but you better be on top of your game if you push them.

You should try the ZR1 (I know, you would if you had the chance). I have not driven the Z06, but the ZR1 is f*ckin' insane.

Stock vettes are almost boring. Zo6 and ZR1's,

Beautiful sports cars with a rich racing heritage. Expect nothing less.

coming from someone owning a BMW and a hell of a nice Porsche, your point of view is refreshing.

What?

..oh wait. You are the same guy that said the "stock" Vette handles like a pig. Can't recall the exact term used.

Have you ever driven ANY Vette?

A "stock" Vette would cause you to wet your pants with a good driver.

I think anyone who bashes the Corvette is probably just a little insecure and probably uneducated about the history of the car.

The Corvette doesn't need my praise, it's a car that speaks for itself; multiple FIA GT wins, LeMans victories, and ALMS wins.

I am a former owner (C5 generation). So I have spent a lot of time enjoying these cars on the back roads of Southern California.
