I love Corvettes, but never again. It's an expensive lawn ornament at my house in my driveway. I bought a new Camaro instead. I wouldn't recommend that either, I'm trading it for a BRZ.

The Camaro has the grace of an ocean liner. The only reason I was able to DD the vette was that I own lots of cars, so if it broke, I drove something else. You can't have it as your main car.

We have a WRX now, I'm in love. Go drive one. There's a reason people are obsessed with them. You can get a new WRX for 26k if you negotiate hard. I bought at Van Bortel Subaru in Victor, NY, ask for Vince. You can also hit up Clayton at Ramsey Subaru in NJ. It's worth the drive. Negotiate over the phone and by email.
Was it a C5 or a C6? There are C5s at 2-300k now still going strong.

LSx + Tremec is a bulletproof combo.
