The colour is , but that installation is amazing!!!
Too much flashy chrome though. I would have gone with more brushed / keat-wrapped stuff myself. |

That 599XX is -off awesome too.
What's the reason for the Earnhardt-esque #3 on the thing? |

I like the body somewhat, but they still have some of the same ing dumb problems. The first two being live/solid axles and it is a ing BOAT. |
i was reading about that, and Ford was saying basically that their hardcore fans didn't want them to touch those axles because it keeps the original mustang feel... go figure. |

Yeah I know, but man, this ain't 1960. Boats may have flown then, but they don't fly now. ing dumb purists wanting modern cards to perform like technology. |

Exactly.
I love old cars. I would probably buy an older car before a new one.
But, I wouldn't buy a new car that had "that old car feel". That's just dumb.
At least the newer Vette's have been tuned to handle half decent even with a transverse leaf sprint for rear suspenion. |

Yeah same. I buy a new car for new technologies, improvements, etc.
Also, leaf springs were dumped on the Z06 and ZR1. Only the base model has leaf springs. |

Oh yeah? They finally put some coil springs under the ass end of that thing? It's about time!
I will grudgingly admit that the ZR1 and Z06 are badass cars. Great value, but it's too bad that the fit & finish is so lacking compared to cars that they can be compared to in terms of performance. |

Agreed, but you get what you pay for unfortunately. |
