Can you get into a house of your own? Is it time to buy your dream garage?

Whoa, whoa, whoa... Who ever said we were friends???





















Rumor has it (Oh yes the holy rumors) say the Supra will be under 60k, or basically the same price as a new Corvette. So it's a little more realistic vs a GTR which are selling for way over 80k and in fact continue to rise every year. Look right now and they're selling them brand new for six figures. Besides the supra won't be out for another 5 years anyways. I read somewhere it took them 5 years to design the FRS and they said it could take longer for the next possible supra to come out.

Right....... Maybe it appeals to the older crowd cause they're a bunch of racist stereotypical old ****ers who think all japenese cars are crap, and can't see how horrible the design of the interior/exterior of their own cars are cause they don't have their glasses on trying to act young... Honestly how many older folks do you see that actualy drive their Vette the way it should be??
The only good thing, ok the greatest thing about the vette is the motor (has to be a Z06) That's the only thing it has going for it along with the price tag of a new vette. Other than those two things it has nothing going for it. The interior is basically the same since 1999, and it has just doesn't have that "new look" to it....

these "old" people grew up with the corvette being "the" sports car that people desired. Obviously when they have a chance to own a decent car later in life, the vette is at the top of the list.

Clarkson doesn't give two ***** about the vette. He grew up desiring a jaguar e-type

^This... I grew up thinking Vettes were awesome. I still think they look great, and I can't deny the raw power coming from under the hood.

On par with this, Had a 89 vette loved it...but, I believe you truly desire what was the $hit when you were in HS, I loved the 03 Z my senior year, and 3 years later I paid cash for mine after selling the vette. The 300 grabbed me from the start but the 350 finished it off....nonetheless, too many haters...fukn enjoy anythign with 4 wheels ppl are passionate about. I get so fukn sick of hearing trash talking mitsus, subarus, hotrods,mustangs, vettes, sports& even the exotics most cannot afford..its variety, speed and agility that makes the world go around...ENJOY.
