im willing to bet that if my step grandpa was still alive hed be getting the new C6 Z06 asap.

as it was he had six corvettes when he died in 98

 

whered they go?

 

Man I hope the pricing of the new Nissan wont be competing with the new vettes. I dont think I could swing that.

 

The R34 style has a little bit of a muscle look to it. Im sure the new one is far better but its just got that look... I wanna say "vaginafied" kinda like that Jeep did to all of their 4 banger wranglers all thru the 90's. They finally ponied up and whipped out a V8 jeep again recently. Rubicon I think.

 

I am starting to lose it with Nissan. That Z platform is like heroin for that company. They can't get enough. God forbid a new body style gets developed in the sports car division. Hopefully the performance of this alleged beast under the "vaginified" coating will get me to have a favorable opinion of this car. Mustang GT500 would give the C06 a run for it's money.

 

If i was to get a small v8 4x4 id get a pre 78 Ford Bronco...two words: bullet proof. easy motors swaps and they came stock with a reliable v8 too. tons of aftermarket parts and good looks... I hate jeeps, especially after chryser bought them...

sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

 

^ what you said... I would rather go old school Land Rover (cant stop em) or new school defender 90 (the daddy of a jeep wrangler).

 

yeah.. anyone ever has any 4x4 questions.. i very well may be ur man... i have 2! and i was into that scene for several years.. until the gas mileage bit my ***!
