For the idiot who said corvettes get better gas mileage
2006 Civic Si: The EPA rates it at 22 mpg city and 31 mpg highway
6.0 Vette: City: 18 Highway: 28

All I said was shit thats true, I can damn well say they hold their value, its been holding the same value for 15-20 years, it has always held its value. So why wouldn't it now?

I aint arguing shit about how fast it is and shit, cuz i dont know. All i said for the value its a bad-ass car. I dont see much better for 19K. And for the idiots trying to be smart, I didnt say shit about loving hondas, I didnt say shit about how fast it will be and blah blah. I just said simple facts, and if you know anything about cars or the car market, you would know they are true.

It's not bad ass. It's an adequate economy car. The argument wasn't over whether or not it's a good buy for $19k. If speed isn't a concern, then it's not bad. If speed is a concern, there are better ways to spend $19k.

Just like you can say they hold their value well becuase they've been doing so for 15-20 years, I can say they're slow because they've been that way since they came out.

So 4 mpg less, but 200 more hp? I can deal with that.

ah, thanks for reminding my what my position was.

you didn't say it was slow, you said it was a "slow piece of shit," which is where i happened to jump in. now i think the only reason you say "piece of shit" is because it's "slow," so that's why i brought up the 240... cars can be slow and still be good cars. but i don't think you really consider it a piece of shit, i think you're just being inflammatory to get a rise out of people. so i'm gonna step back and stop giving you the satisfaction.

See but theirs also a catch. You can push the shit out of a civic and get the 22mpg almost. But I know for a fact if you push the shit out of a vette, you get about 12-13 mpg. I know this because Ive driven a vette for a couple days, and also driven civic's for days.

Actually, I can go stock for stock with the best the S13-S15 platforms have to offer again the the best the Civic platforms have to offer and the S13-S15 will have the civic beat for speed.

You have to remember, the 240 is only slow over here. The civic is universally slow.

Compare it like this. If you push the vette to the point where it matches the Civic's performance, I'm sure it would be in the 28mpg range.
