Got a question... When a man in Nebraska gets married, does he call her his wife or sis? I always get confused with that.

Is it also true the family trees in Nebraska only have one branch?

Just curious.
So you have a vette???

911, Z06,even the Saturn Sky looks good now. But all cars get old, I used to think the C5 Vette was nice, but not anymore.

Nice line up. I prefer the Vette, but maybe because I own one. The Aston is smokin' as well. The GTR may be the ugliest $70K car on the planet.

Maybe when your face clears up and you finally get laid by a prostitute when you're 35 or so, you might have a chance to buy a used up old Vette...it's the closest you'll ever come to having an ounce of coolness.

For me AM, Vette and G37 look good.

911 turbo is second from the bottom most with its huge front and rear overhangs, upright windshield and frog like sloping back, too much beetle like for my taste.

Accord is the ugliest of all.

lol i parked my car (ppw) right next to a porche (silver) you have up there this morning. what a coincidence...anyways, my z is lowered with nismo s-tune suspension and the porche looks stock but still sits a lot lower than my z..i guess in general porche is still > z

On the contrary, I love the Z and its short front bumper. Function-wise, it is better to have a short bumper than long because you have less weight in front of your tires which = better steering response. Like pretty much all 3-series Bimmers.

My top 5: AM, Z, Vette, Cayman, FDRX-7

I thought that orange thing was a riced-out Lexus SC430! I really don't like that car either. I call it the wanna-be heavy-@$$ Z.

Where's the profile of the M3 or at least 335i?

I am suprised there are so many on here that like the vette. I also like the C6 looks. I am upgrading to one in a couple of months. I am having a hard time departing with the Z though.

i think with the Z lowered it looks so much better... I think the g37 is higher stock than that pic. This Z's body style has been around for 5 yrs now..that shows how popular the design is. It's shapely, not to edgy, and will still look good in years to come.

Trust me....you'll forget all about the Z after two minutes in your new vette.

I like the side profile of both the Z and the Vette. Here is a good picture of both of them together. From the picture you can see how the Z is shorter than the Vette.



Here is another interesting side profile shot throwing in an 07 Mustang.

YES the car has gobs of horsepower and torque, but in terms of drive the z beats the corvette hands down. take a turn in the z at 80 or take a turn in the vette at 80, the z feels better. the gas pedal feels better in the z, and the transmission is better too.

Similar expierience - but did not take it for a week - and it was a base model. I think because it is geared so tall, it just feels completely different than the Z. When I first drove the Z, I said 'this is what I am looking for - this is what it SHOULD feel like'. The Vette was very nice - and fast as hell when pushed. But - I went with the Z and haven't looked back yet!
