Hold out for a 370Z retractable hard top.

If you like the top down feeling and can get a drop top vette go with that. If you love the Z wait for the 370. Its really up to whatever makes you happy.

Do you street race or go to the track? If not, I don't know why you need the extra HP except for maybe bragging rights.......

I'd test drive the Vette several times before you make up your mind...

this comment comes from experience with driving customer's vettes and direct word from the customer's themselves.

i'd understand this arguement if the z didn't have any rattles, but mine has plenty already, and its only a year old, making this argument useless, and ride quality is subjective

It seems you have already made your mind up. Just pull the trigger and get it. And when you are driving down the road in your new vette, just think about all of that money you will loose, only having had your Z a year..

I'd go with the mystery box instead. I mean the Vette is a Vette, but the mystery box; it could be anything, it could even be a Vette!

You're considering buying a used car that you will never really know if it's been abused or not and turning in your your car which you bought new and know its complete history, no brainer to me, keep what you have till newer Z model, or buy new Corvette

30 Grand on the Tach on the Vette should let you know its kind of a bad decision. Can't make it based on Dyno Numbers. American Cars dont last that long, or so I think.

screw the vette whats it got on a new GTR. If you want a super car go GTR if you like your Z hold out for the 370z
P.S. go to youtube and watch the GTR test runs... SICK!

Default Tough Decision

But - I would not trade my roadster for a Vette Coupe. Not happening. Vettes are nice - fast as hell. But I got the Roadster for a reason. I assume you did too.

Good Luck.
