Hello members,
I have dreamed of owning a Corvette since my parent's briefly took possession of my aunt's 1981 Corvette when I was in elementary school. That vehicle acted as the impetus of my passion for Corvettes. Now, at the age of 25, I have a vehicle to facilitate the indoctrination of my five-year old son.
Previous Vehicle: 2009 Pontiac G8 GT w/ mods
New Vehicle: 2002 Corvette coupe w/ 60,000 original miles
The vehicle is stock with exception to a short-throw shifter (brand unknown), muffler delete, K&N FIPK, and black powdercoated C6 wheels. More pictures at the following link: http://s189.photobucket.com/albums/z206/DanielCadillac/

How does it compare to the G8 in terms of driving feel/power/etc?
Also, unrelated, why are there no dual tip exhaust that come up next to each other - like every other car that has a center dual-tip exhuast? The spaced out 2 tip looks funky IMO.
