Default I may be back to Vette land

Last august I had traded my 05 C6 MN6 on a new 2013 Challenger RT. Ok please don't flame me I thought I wanted a larger muscle car. Its not bad but i need to be back in a vette. I'm currently looking at a 2009 3LT coupe with everything plus touring /sport switch for suspension. Can anyone tell me if that package has the NPP exhaust. I'm not going to see it till tomorrow. Heres the vin # 1G1YY26W695109963
Thanks Neil

Not sure but would be surprised if it didn't. Glad to see you come back to your senses and getting back in a Vette!

Reason you don't see it because they took it off the site while it's on hold for me.

Hummm You have a 2013 model car. Now you want to downgrade
to a 2009 corvette. Would say C7 or keep the 2013

To answer your question. we can't tell if this car has NPP exhaust by describing the trim level, i.e. 1LT, 2LT etc. The optional exhaust was a stand alone option that could be ordered on any trim level.

I can see why you went for the Challenger. I'm attracted to it's looks by it's simple clean design. Very well proportioned. You can say the same about the C6, but certainly not all cars share this trait.

Good luck on now finding your next vette. Be sure to show it off by posting some pictures when you get it.

I don't see it as a downgrade. The 2 cars are worlds apart. The Hemi challenger is quick but I miss the go cart handling of the vette.

Challengers are too big for my taste, and IMHO, the worst car in history for any kind of snow driving. I have driven several cars, including a mustang, in the snow and the challenger looses traction if the weatherman forecasts snow 3 days from now.

With that said......welcome back!! Just in time for the spring.
