Vegas- Really nice, man. I like the red interior a lot. To be honest, I am not crazy about the silver exterior on the vette, but i think with some nice dark wheels it could look sick. Also, the low miles/low-ish cost combo is really quite nice.
Were you able to drive the car? What were your initial impressions?
I gather that it's quite a competant chassis, certainly a huge revision from the C5 platform...

Maybe. That's probably a good idea.
Can we get a final-ish headcount for this evening??
Dave +1

White Paul +1?
Marshall +1?

Kevin? +1?
Pierre? (Commit, bitcch.)
Greg?
Brian?
Chris?

Help me out, guys....

I drove another C6 this morning (blue one w/blk int) They drive very nice. a lot better steering and suspension compared to the C5. Power is all there too
Don't see me or Mikie, but I guess since we aren't bringing evo's we are not on the list
I still own one you know... might even keep it as a winter / driver car j/k Dave

The 6-speed manual transmission also has improved shift linkage and a 0-60 time of 4.0 seconds, while the automatic is set up for quicker shifts giving the C6 Automatic a 0-60 time of 4.3 seconds, faster than any other production automatic Corvette. The interior was slightly updated and a new 4LT leather-wrap interior package was added. The wheels were also updated to a new five-spoke design.[6]

speaking of mikie... where the hell is that kid. hope hes not mad i didn't text him back last night. was with a lady.
he texted "why do i never see you drift?"
and i guess my response would be - ryan is the only kid that has been in the car with me drifting it, during broad daylight. as for anyone else, i think only paulnsx has seen me tail all the way out in his rear view. (the road was wet and gravelly)
08 model year according to wikipedia
p.s. - paul what the hell? make dustin your date! i will be stag.

Vegas- that combo is killer!!!! I love the silver w/red
I say go for it man. Looks like the car has taken all the depreciation it will already. Seems like a great buy, especially with the low low mileage
