+1. Corvettes are not overrated, they are underrated. I have pulled 1.67g's in a z06 and I thought I was going to crash the company car on the off ramp, but nope, held its own.
next the skyline is the closet thing to it, but if you turn it to track mod or turn on launch control your warranty is voided. I have saw many engines replaced in corvettes for free due to the warranty. I have saw many heavily modified z06's with bigger brakes, coil over suspension, etc, come into the plant and have a new motor put in. I really don't think nissan is going to warranty out the skyline if drive it like you stole it, which is what every corvette owner needs to do.
Corvette owners have this bad rep of doing 45 in 6th gear, because they know what they have and don't have to be hammering on it all the time and taking corners at proper (fast) speeds.
There is no way that anyone can ever flame a new vette. They are what we all want, a fast car with full suspension and big brakes, backed by a factory warranty, and a huge car scene and lots of friends that come with. The problem is most of us cannot afford them.
flame war ended.
