Whoa! Works for me!

My wife and my Corvette are two special things. She thinks the car comes first. I disagree.

...when used judiciously for the good of mankind!

All joking aside, I get the feeling Mrs. Bill is a lucky lady

Now, back on topic... more pictures please Ox!!

You did great. C6 will be sharp for a long time. Jerry Hamm here in Jacksonville has a pair of 427 convertibles that I have gone to drool over. I'd take the red one off his hands in a heartbeat.

The C6 forum is down the hall on your right..

BlueOx

Yes...certainly...our horsepower obsession...

gthal

That is one very fine specimen... (of course I mean the horse )

Big Dan 427

Now that's what I call a errrrr, tail.

All right all right you guys get off your high horse. Lets show a little respect for the horses in the new Stingray..

It all about how the ride goes. You can't appreciate HP by just looking at it. I've always believed HP should best be measured by the seat of the pants ...if you can't feel it, what good is it... Right? What are you guys talking about?

If I were in the market for a brand new Corvette, this would be the route i would take as well. Love the c7, but a 427 at $14k off sticker would be too good to resist. The car is going to be iconic IMO. In a couple of years, there will be great deals on the C7 as well. It's just a smart move I believe.

BlueOx

Just an example...if you want to say you own a C6 427 steel-frame vert, this makes good sense. I'll be waiting for the C7.

MSRP $89,165
YOUR COUGHLIN 427 CORVETTE IS ONLY $76,995 *

As a little kid I'd ride my bike over to the car dealers and snoop around to sneak a peek at the new models they were hiding till introduction day. I was EAGER to see the new models.

Why have we all been following this C7 forum for so long? Because we were EAGER to know all about the new Corvette.

It's only logical that we'd be EAGER to have one.

If the excitement ended after you'd seen the new C7 then there's no reason to buy one at all. You can save a lot of money now on older higher horsepower models.

That would be torque and there is a nice improvement with the C7 in that regard.

sam90lx

GM, why didnt you use this *** on the C7 ??

Cliff358

...I can just hear the conversation with your buddy. How did she look?

...Look????

jb_va2001

Depends entirely on how you use them.

VETTEMANN

I think you missed it... I was talking about the 'other' performance models in this thread.

But as for cars, I like high revs. The LS7 has both torque and revs - if I want to feel torque only, I'd drive a diesel.

Not a chance, latest and greatest for me, I can not deal with last years model as nice as it is.
