Default 2002 C5Z Car Review

I just found this on youtube. With everyone nowdays talking about the new King, it's cool to look back at what everyone was saying about our cars back in the day. One thing you will hear over and over in this is how sporty it is, has that sports car feel and the steering is impressive. Some equate that to a raw feeling I guess but it is exactly why I love this car and have not moved up. I have never heard these attributes used on the newer version regardless of the perfomance aspects. Enjoy the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cudP-...eature=related

Thanks for the post. Loved the reviews, especially the Car and Driver verson because it featured the TR corvette, my color. But in any color, the Z06 is awesome. Love my 02 TR coupe, my 08 VR vert and my 02 TR Z06. Hard to make a choice which one to drive, but alas, they still are in storage and with more snow predicted for Wednesday.
