Turbo NSX not fast enough for you? If you have that kind of budget, why are you looking at a C5Z? You could probably get a C6Z in that price range.

the C6 is to me still kinda new and I would be wasting my money on losing warrenty. I believe a C5 could be anywhere in the range of 25k.
I could put what I believe about 10-15k into it and alot of labor and beer amongs friends and have on hell of a fast car. Just really wanting something different. Dont get me wrong.. The NSX is by no means a slouch..I am from south Georgia.. and I can take out a 750GSX-R 2006 from a 70+ and a 600rr from a 40+ roll. Just (intrested)in a car that is 1000rwhp sleeper. I like to do things hands on..
