That's my two cents.
I second this decision.

Have you ever seen a Noble in person. They get hyped everywhere, but the interior is sparse. I'd say a EVO interior is 10x better than a Noble and that's not saying much. Ultimate performance car under 100K I still don't see how you can deny the numbers and times of the c6 Z6.

I don't like them and I wouldn't buy one either. If someone said pick the best performance car for under 100K with creature comforts it would without a doubt be that car. If it was a track only decision then a Noble.

The Noble is an awesome weekend car but not something that you'd want as a daily driver.

YES Matter of Fact I have. I Seen and got in an Orange one at Hot Import Nights In Dullas V.A.

That Thing does High 11s STOCK. It weights a little more than the Elise.

pulls over a 1G on the skidpad. Its Up there with the ariel atom and the zonda around the top gear track.

Z06, it isn't a convertable but it is hella fast. No car for the money can touch it.

How did you get away with that suggestion without getting flamed? You have a $100K and you'd get a Boxster S?

My choice for having to purchase brand new? - Probably Z06. Of course with that amount of money, I'd be buying many lesser priced performance vehicles.

I know Id get a viper... I dunno y ne1 would say viper's cant handle... sure with 500ft/lbs of torque im sure stomping on it in a corner might have some side effects, but they are very amazing cars, and the sex appeal... oh yea it gets no better. Bad *** convertible with loads of torque and looks that could kill (and lets not forget all the hennessey goodies). I'm sure the Z06 will be amazing... but dodge has always owned the corvette... If the new corvette is gonna be that much better could you just imagine the next viper? I have always been a viper fan since i was like 6, im 19 now and i have owned 2 evos simply because they are the best car for the money hands down, but you watch, when im in a comfortable enough position in life to be making the decision you are right now... there will be a shiny red viper convertible in my driveway!

Just my 2 cents.

all of these cars are amazing machines and u will have fun in any of them.
