Default hello....

just wanted to hi to all. just got my first vette last month and been loving every mile. best money i ever spent. had several f-bodies in the past but just came from an 03 cobra. not a bad car and tons of power but a complete dog compared to the total package of this car. my brother has been driving vettes for for years and is the owner of a c6z which is one bad **** ride. when they came out with the c6, had to have it. anyway been digg'n this site so i wanted to jump it

What's up Atomic!
It seems like everyone comes from a Cobra. I guess it's time for me to move on and get a Vette.
Come on guys, should I really sell my mint Cobra Mustang that I love sooo much?
Do these C6's drive as awsome as they look!!!!!
I don't know what to do

thank you sir.... i have and do pick up all the 411 i can get. this site rocks!
as for the money thing, i have learned right off that venders that sell vette merchendise assume you got $$$ if you have a vette. everything for these things is high. the price for fame i guess.

Welcome. I used to have an '03 Cobra also. I agree the C6 is better, but wouldn't go so far as to call the Cobra a dog.
