My new car (sort of)

[paydirt]

Well it may not be all that new any longer as I've owned it for two years now but I thought I would drop by and say hello and share some pictures. I always loved the support and great members on this forum. I was lucky enough to win car of the month a while back on here http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35663

I'm really hoping to get into another mustang soon as a daily driver but for now here is the new toy! It started life as a bone stock narrow body c6 coupe and has transformed into this. It put down 666rwhp on just 7lbs of boost. Running a custom grind cam, ARH longtubes, still has cats, and a Vortech T trim blower.

The demographic for Corvette owners is night and day different from the Mustang world. You pick it up as soon as you start reading the threads. You get a wiff of it in the GT500 world.

sweet, but stangless

Beautiful car, the carbon fiber look on the wheels is awesome

Beautiful car Ryan, and definately no hating from me on your choice to buy a Vette. As for the attitude of other Vette owners, who cares how they are as long as you don't start to act like them.

 

[Shotokan1509]

You have great taste in vehicles, cleanly modded

 

[YellowRoush]

Vettes are where its at... and yours is badass! If you want a mustang.. I'm more than willing to trade! Lol jk

 

[Jeffk]

That is a sweet Vette.

I agree with you about the Vette Community vs. The Stang community.

Damn, your parents are making some money! Nice car!

Great looking car. No hate here.

I'm not hating, it's a badass car. I've met this kid before at a meet, his parents are nice enough to get him some sick whips.

Not that it really matters, but I'm curious, how old is the 'Vette owner(OP)? I always think of Vette owners as being older. I guess simply because you gotta be older, making good money (or saved good money) to be able to afford to own one.

Either way, the OP's Vette is gorgeous!

Are those widebody parts from a z06 or aftermarket? Badass ride.
