It looks pretty simular to a Mitsubishi Eclipse. I think the Corvette or the new Mercedes are the finest looking and performing cars in the world.

[nevadamedic voice=on]That looks like a Ford Probe[/voice]

I dunno about mazda - i'm a little skeerd of their workmanship. My car is finding itself producing more and more little rattles. :( It's lame.

I'm not going to go all exotic, but I'll say if I had $60K to go shopping for a super car with right now, this is what I'd buy, the ZR-1 Corvette...

I thought the ZR1 would be about 100k???

Beautiful car, though. Still, for that kinda money? P-Car is an option. Or the Audi R8? :)

What is great about the Corvette, among many other things, is that it is designed for real road conditions. If not lowered, it will probably be able to go up most driveway inclines (that Aston Martin certainly won't), clear most speed bumps, and drive through most of the dips found in the Tucson area. And it will do all of this driving slow or very fast........ within reason of course. Add in the price and it is definitely something America should be proud of.

Definitely has some very sexy curves, I like the profile a lot. I am sure that neither are very affordable except for someone like Tiger Woods.

It is, and has been, proven to be "the most bang for the buck" in the super car world time and time again. When you can stack that little fart cake up against cars that cost two and three times as much, and keep right up with most and even BEAT others, yeah, I'd be proud as a Peacock to own that little '08 ZR-1.

fyi


We can’t hazard a guess at the price, but Chevy says it will “trump exotics that cost two, three or four times as much.” The Z06 costs $70,175. The ZR1 would be a deal under $100,000. That’ll be what we’re waiting to hear when the car debuts in person at the Detroit auto show in a few weeks.

I think i'll be a 6-digit-price...along the lines of the Ford GT.
