No at all... Just had the chance to "upgrade".

A classic F is never without issues. I did all the service (timing belts etc.) when I had it.
I also had the pleasure of changing a broken oil pump chain tenisoner, and a bad gearbox bearing.
All in all nothing some tools, time and research did not solve.

Well you know. I have seen some vette vs." whatever exotic" debates on here over the years.

I love my GS, and it has a never to beaten bang for the $!

Oh yeah the debates are always here to stay. I drink my share of Corvette Koolaid but I drink responsibly. At the end of the day there's more than just Corvettes out there.

What was the previous F car? What is the next car to add to the stable? An R/T 10 would look good in there.

My F was 348GTB, dream F is an F40.
I have had a viper itch ,not for the R/T 10, but the GTS...

that's sooo ghetto, Can you upgrade them to standard doors?

Oh, and I'm very jealous and therefore fairly pissed you would dare come into the slums, C4 gen, and share a car like this with us. Can't you wait until we are at least C6Z owners before shoving this in our faces?

All j/k aside- very very cool garage you have going there.

What year is it?
My dad almost got a 78' back in the early 90's for a nice price.

Its 93. One of the last "real" lambo´s IMO. RWD, and no Audi influence...Pure madness super car.

I might have missed it somewhere but I don't think so... do you mind telling what you paid? I've always wanted one but to afford it I would have to ditch all of the Vettes and I just can't quite bring myself to do it. The prices on those things are all over the place these days and I have seen some sell at prices that seem like an absolute steal.
