I think he was saying their views of the c5/zo6 are ignorant. They are great cars, especially for the price. You can pick up a use 99-00 FRC Vette for less than $20k with very few miles. You can then spend $15k in the engine (stroker kit, heads, cam, long tube headers, clutch and everything else that goes with it) and have well over 500rwhp. A car with the above and about $5k in suspension/wheels/tires will keep up with nearly any current super car including a new Enzo. Its amazing what can be had with research/knowledge. I'm not knocking anyone for their choice, just trying to educate. Of course, the above build list is not for the shade tree mechanic, but it can be done by professionals for not much more. I know what my next car will be as soon as my GTI sells.
