StangD, when I was posting, your reply wasn't up yet...I thought I was going to be first :-D You're right, it is the ubiquitous question on the boards. I'm humored and flattered that the '03 is being compared to a $50K+ vette...:-DOriginally posted by StangD281
Jimbo's right, but what fun would a forum be without this question

Hantzis,
I agree with you to a point stock vs stock the Z06 will win and most of the time I think it is apples to oranges comparing a stock vs modded car... However when the car is so easy to mod IE:Cheap pulley and is able to surpass the other car in straightline I look at that differently... When you think of a Toyota Supra...Do you think of the 13.5-7 car that it is stock... I don't!!!!!!!! Or the Grand Nationals? Heck No!!!!!!!!!! Because they are so easy to mod to be so fast with no money.. Thats why 7 out of 10 will just lay a butt whippin on most..... And for handling.. I have never raced anyone in the twisties... When all they see is my tailights I hope they keep telling themself that they have better brakes and that they can handle better because I know that won't be on my mind.. Just a fat smile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:
3. horsepower
4. torque

Are you secretly deep down a Corvette owner????? How is this not a comparison???? The Cobra and the BMW WOULD BE apples to oranges, but the vette & this cobra ARE comparable. How can you say that they are not?? :shrug:
