the Lotus Exige outhandles everything on the road, not the vette Z06 nor skyline. both have tremendous grip but that's not sheer handling.

The Exige doesn't have the power of a Vette or a Skyline. It runs on a 3L V6 so it won't have the torque that the 7.0L LS7 has.

I'll be happy with a 1992 Dodge Grand Caravan ES in mint condition and about 9-10K to dump an odyssey drivetrain into it...

Whats with you and minivans? I've been driving quite a few Dodge Caravans in the last couple days, and i gotta say i don't like vans. They are big, bulky, and hard to drive in a small space. Plus there is alot of body roll if turn too fast.

I had a 98 c5 vette and when rumors start about the c6 I wanted one so bad and it was my dream car until last christmas I got my c6 and ebayed my c5. I got the the c6 is so much better in everyway and I love it. It is a year and 2 days old to me and I have only put 2263 miles on it.

I wouldn't buy a C6. Not because there is anything wrong with it, just that the Z06 is soo much better. Although the Z06 costs about 20k more, i would have to save until i could afford a Z06. I couldn't sit in the C6 and drive it and think, how much better would a Z06 be?

Me too, but if i could afford the 43K for a base corvette, another 20k for the Z06 shouldn't be impossible. I'd just work my *** off till i could buy one, or wait a year or two and buy it used.
