My 12 second Mopar. I think my C5 can "take it" though.

1,000 lbs less??? The the G35 Coupe weights over 3500 pounds in its MT form. Add auto to it, it easily will go over 3700 lbs.

The C5 is a good 3200 lbs., 3150 on the FRC/Z06.

The vette stays covered in the driveway when i'm not driving it. This bad boy has to be garaged. Sometime they will sit side by side.
