That would be me. They are the best bang for the buck track car out there as there's nothing that will run with them below $150k. That said I agree the new ones will push 90 at least for the first year or two after they're available. That's a lot of $ to potentially wad up on the track. I have a lot of friends that have Vette track cars, but as for the waxer crowd I have to agree with the previous posts. It's too bad since I'd probably consider one otherwise. It's amazing the ego some of them have over a "budget" sports car lol.

I've killed a few Z06's and they lose that attitude real quick. They won't even make eye contact when you slow down and let them catch up.

But for a shade over 23k (base with Performance Package) you can't beat the bang for buck...hell you could buy 3 or 4 for what the new vette will cost out the door....(though I do like the looks of the new one)....this car would smoke many of the "muscle cars" from the day.....may not have the kick you in the a** torque but a mid 13 second quarter mile ain't too shabby...

Would I have rather had the V8, oh hell yeah, but I didn't have an extra 7 grand...and it doesn't sound too bad with the Ford Racing Mufflers....and my insurance was a heck of a lot cheaper....hell I had a 64 GTO 389 Tri-Power as well as many other pretty fast cars ( Charger/Trans Am/Z-28/87 Mustang GT) and this car is faster than all of them...ha, my 79 Mustang Cobra V8 only had about 140 hp!!!!
