If someone parked a ZR-1 in your driveway and said, here, it's yours to drive....every one of you would pull a fucking hamstring rushing out there to drive it...to go show it off to your friends.

(Well, except for Slice...who would likely stand there whining about how it's paint didn't match his shoes....you know, to look "cool" in front of the other gay ass hipsters arriving in their beat down "I got a great deal" Audis )

That cah makes me hahd in my pants.

I'd drive that cah ovah to the Nahth End for lunch. Then I'd pahk in front of Faneuil Hall and sit on the hood with my Bruins jersey on so everybody would know how wicked awesome I am.

I'd drive to The Cape anytime it is wahm.

Bettah?

If someone gave me this car, I would immediately put if for sale. I could go out and get me a lot of moto stuff for the money I would get from this car and it wouldn't be worth it to drive it and risk reducing it's value. I see $$$ when looking at it, not fun factor.


Motorcycles a billion times > cars

Its not that I wouldn't drive or that I do not like the car.
Its just not a car I would buy. If I wanted to buy a vette, it would be a ZO6.
If I wanted that drivetrain, I'd buy a CTS-v wagon with a 6spd thank you.

I disagree. To me (personal opinion only), the Corvette is an overpriced Camaro. It elicits almost zero emotional response from me. Were a ZR1 to magically show up in my driveway, I'd put it up for sale or trade it in and would have zero regrets. They're fun to drive in short periods of time, but there are plenty of other cars (and bikes) I'd much rather have at that price and less.

A great car is a great car, and yes, that car is a great car, but that doesn't mean it's without flaws. What's wrong with pointing them out? Some people like me are perfectionists......I look at shit and go, "they could have done THIS"

It is called the glass half empty syndrome.

Plus, I'm sitting here in front of a computer......I can't drive it.......All I can do is look at it and make comments.

Meanwhile I have the free cash to not need a mortgage, and to nibble on stocks as the market goes down...

How did you end up with the A4?
Did you finally retire the Probe?

Is it the 5v 2.8 V6 or the 1.8T?

[Homeslice]

The Probe needed too much work to justify for something only worth $1,500, lol........struts, paint job, tires......

Wanted a 4 door anyway.....with AWD for Tahoe trips

It's the 5V V6........The 1.8T is a good motor too, but only if the previous owner used good oil and changed it regularly

You can get Audis cheap because their resale sucks......People get afraid of them as time goes by
