never driven an american car
Hey everyone,
I'm Mike. I currently own a 2006 Porsche Boxster and have only owned BMWs before this and a honda.
I have never driven an American car besides a chevy impala rental.
I love my Boxster in every way, but I feel like I am more of a raw power guy. I love the thrill of acceleration and the inspiring sound of the exhaust.
And one thing I love more than anything is low weight and high power output -- the 'Vette delivers, although most other American cars don't do that very well.
The only bad things I hear about the c6 other than typical brand prejudice which I ignore, is the leaf spring suspension, the CAGS and the interior lack of quality. I don't give HALF A TURD about the interior of my car, to be honest. I'm sure the suspension could be fixed up for a couple thousand, and I read the CAGS can be eliminated for about 20 bucks.
I am going to test a c6 today and see how it goes. I can't wait.
It may just steal me away from my high revving German beauty
Thank you for reading.

Welcome aboard. Next get ready to say goodbye to the Boxster. After you drive a C6 you will never want to go back. Good Luck.
