Had my 02 C5 vert for a month
And everytime I get out of it and into my truck or the wifes LS, I either roll half way through or plow the person in front of me at the first intersection or two that I hit. 
Not only does the vette make go faster, but make stop faster too!!

Yeah I did the same thing when I drove my son's Blazer last weekend. You gotta adjust for the bad brakes! Also remember, when you are in the Vette, the person behind you in the Blazer, Suburban, etc can't stop as fast as you can, so keep an eye on the rear view mirror...

Just yesterday I took a turn into a strip mall a little too hot (forgot I was in the Blazer :o ) - wound up engaging the ABS and frantically hoping the Michelin Cross Terrains will grab and finally turn the vehicle.
I never realized what PIGS SUV's are as far as handling and braking - until I got the Vette a year ago......
And to think those Latte drinking, phone talking, multi-tasking soccor moms are piloting around a 2 1/2 ton ill-handling vehicle, and no paying attention to boot! It's a wonder we don't have mass-disaster daily!
