Keep the BRZ?
 
and add a ducati panigale 899 or...dump it for a corvette stingray z51?

Reaper 04-11-2014 02:26 AM

keep it.

I absolutely LOVE the new corvette!! but.......... given the chance to own the BRZ AND 899 panigale over the vette, I would take the BRZ and Duc everyday

Get the bike. Corvettes suck.

899!! Love them. Take a look at an MV F3 800 and a Triumph Daytona 675 R though too, I would have gotten one of those three if I could have afforded the extra insurance.

brz and bike any day...

What if the corvette changes to R8. Pushing for the v8, it might just be the last gated manual ever. Bikes and whatever can wait.

Chen 04-11-2014 04:38 AM

R8 wins me over.

PPX 04-11-2014 04:54 AM

R8 grossly overpriced from performance standpoint however

Reaper 04-11-2014 05:46 AM

r8s price to performance ruins it for me. I feel like i could build something faster in my driveway with that amount of money

Change the Z51 to a new C7 Z06.

PPX 04-11-2014 09:08 AM

I drive cars now feel good factor, performance is no longer relevant when teslas and 15k bikes can dust 150k cars hence will not consider z06. The most track capable vette...who really wants to track a 1600kg car?

Very good points!The feel good factor is what it's all about.

Is the Corvette really that heavy? That can't be right?

I'm not a motorcycle person, or rather I think it's too hostile to ride where I live. I'd get the Vette (with a manual gearbox and the performance pack, of course).
