[QUOTE="zr1gerhardt, post: 13491638, member: 137852"] I am sorry about all of the mustang owners feeling hurt that they picked the Vette and then make irrational statements like this. The new stingray is one of the most balanced sports cars ever made. Yes, the GT500 is faster in a straight line, no doubt. I love the GT500 and will not trade mine for a stingray either. But come on. It has better tires, better suspension, better performance management software, nicer interior, good looks, great mpg, etc. Then take the car to a track. It can run with many exotic cars. For example, it has the 7th fastest hot lap time at the Virginia International Speedway for a stock car. It lapped faster than any GT-R, Porsche, Lexus LFA, Mercedes, GT500 and it outran the z06 with the Z07 package. Yes, different days and different drivers, but it is up there period. Here is the link. [url=http://fastestlaps.com/tracks/virginia_international_raceway.html]Virginia International Raceway lap records - FastestLaps.com[/url] So don't tell me it does not excel or compare favorably to other sports cars, unless you mean beating them around a track does not count. Just because you may not like its straight line performance, does not mean it is not a great car. Scott [/QUOTE]
