Wow, I'm away from my comp doing some drivin' over the weekend and this thread goes Apeshit!

Sorry if I offended anyone, and I'm quite aware of how fast the Domestics are, I was just saying that they aren't worth my gas. At the end of the day, you have to be happy with what you are driving home, what everyone else has is scenery.

By the way, my father owns a '67 Corvette Conv (327) and that car is the whole reason I missed the Muscle car thing and have always wanted a Sports car. That car was made in a time and an age when we as Americans weren't so greedy. In my eyes, I own an '01 Corvette Conv, it just happens to have Honda's name on it.

Are you saying you are a real supposatory of knowledge?
Just to lighten things up here, I NEVER race domestics. My maid drives a Skoda and my butler drives a Hyundai Pony. What's the point?

Maid? Butler? And you drive an S2000? Dude, far be it from me to tell you what you should drive, but why don't you have an F355, or Modena? Diablo anyone?

There was no stock Z28 that could touch my old Conquest, it was just too powerful and too light. Actually, I don't really know why it hooked up so well, I surprised a lot of people in that car, late 80's and early 90's Corvettes were easy pickin's.

King of the Hill and Viper... kudos, good choices. I remember seeing the Calloway TT Vette and thinking..."twin turbos on a Vette?". I never thought Chevy would top that, but the ZR-1 proved that you don't have to have TT to be bad A**! And of course, the new Z06 is just beyond reason.

S2Kguy,

You must be a pretty intimidating big ol' boy, because if I would have been that Camaro driver I would have stomped you into a mudhole. Your post just sounds way too much like the Boxster owners who will tell you how superior the Boxster is, whether it's faster or not, and that the S2000 isn't worth a look because "it's just a Honda".
