Great article!! I had to laugh, I sold my 2003 Honda V6 Coupe to get my 'Vette a year ago. The author is not going to believe the difference between his Honda and the 'Vette when he gets it!

You guys should also pick up this months issue of Automobile magazine. They do a bunch of caparisons including, Corvette vs. Porsche 911, Manual vs. Auto, Mustang vs. Camaro. It's really a good read.

Hey Guys.

I'm glad you liked the article.

There is a new poll up on the site that asks what your dream car is. The Corvette, last time I checked, was in first place. Stop by and vote when you get a chance.

I saw this before and just re-read it. Yup, it made me smile! The Vette is such a wonderful car overall and such a great balance of features vs. performance and a price tag that is quite "reasonable" for the features and performance. It is simply the best vehicle on the market when it comes to bang-for-the-buck. AND, it's an American car, American made right here in the good ole' USA in Kentucky. Really, what more could you ask for?
