The M4 will be a good car, and kudos to BMW for finding a way to lose some weight. IMO it would be much harder in the vette to lose weight at it's price point since the C6 was already fairly light...

I don't put any faith in this driver. He tested a GTR and could not get under 4.3 sec 0-60. He also could not get under 5.0 seconds in a M6

Although they are differnt cars it is worth a look at both. The M4 will give you a back seat, but not very useable. I have a 2013 M6 because the wife wanted me to get a car with a back seat for the...

That is the challenge for the C7, how do they steal some of that Porsche crowd? The Porsche is a great car, but the 58k C7 (Base +Z51+NPP+MSC) is just as fast and as good on a track (if not faster)...

It is a good read and it does show that the C7 is in the same ball park as the GTR, but it is not quite there. As many others have said on here though I will love to see the same campro between the...

I'm pretty sure you left off the rest of my post where I stated why a DCT for the base vette would cost too much, but it could be afforded in the HI-PO model.

The DCT issue is a tough one. I think the torque excuses was a little weak since there are DCT's that handle 500+ lbs of torque (BMW M6 for example). I think what happened is that GM did not have a...

I think the thought is that the "younger" buyer that may buy the C7 will also be around to buy a C8, C9 etc. The older buyer can afford a C7 much easier, but they may not be around to purchase the...

Did you just brag that you have made 2500 post in one year? Is that an accomplishment or a sign that you make almost 10 post a day on an internet site? Maybe you should step away from the computer...

Well I bought the M6. I looked at the M3 and I just did not care for it so much. A little too plain inside. I'm sure the M4 will be nicer , but patience is not one of my best virtues.

I get what you are saying about loving the vette since you were 10, and it relates to my previous post. Do 10-15 year olds dream about owning a vette, or do they dream of some GTR,911 type of car? ...
