More than your wife's Vette and less than your boat-to-be :wink:

Now my screens all gooey.
Kilr,
unless they get crazy this year with pricing it shouldn't be too much more than the sticker on yours. an 04 Z06 is only in the 50's I believe.

guess you have no idea what corvettes cost, either did I until I bought one, THEY ARE NOT CHEAP.
Im guessing the mid 60's and by the time you are done in the low 70's

It'll probably cost at least $60,000 but I think it'll be closer to $70,000.
500 HP, Brembo brakes, about 3,000 pounds, W I D E tires, this thing's gonna eat Vipers (on the track) for lunch :D

I could see it pushing into the 70's if you went totally nuts with it. Still not bad for a car that will spank a $250,000 ferrari. Don't you get a better deal than that though if you call Photoglou

When I ordered mine, I wanted the stripped 44k one. Jay told me it doesnt exist. Of course I trust jay, but I checked for myself. I could not find a dealer within 300miles that had one. Every dealer orders them almost loaded or loaded. Mine was loaded, nothing left out. 53K. Jay did not charge me a a sellers fee, but dealers are doing this. I met a guy just the other day who paid an extra 3K to buy the car.
Now as a rule of thumb the ZO6 is a hair more than the Convertible. So the convert is 54K and load it up it is 64K add tax lic and of course this car is hot and they are gonna charge you a sellers fee of who knows what. It can approach 80K.

[moneysucker]

It is always funny to negotiate a price above sticker for a car but if it is what you really want you gotta do what you gotta do.

[MagicMtnDan]

Kilr, I hope Jay treated you well.
Vettes like yours are now going for as much as $2500 BELOW MSRP. Certainly not from all dealers but those prices can be had. :cry:

Jay was good to me, I went to 6 dealers and not one of them had a vette on the lot and had no idea how long it would be before they would get one, they all said I can put you on a list. The one dealer that had one said it was sold, the guy was picking it up later. I only bought the car 2 weeks ago. if they are already below price God bless them....

the replacement is called forced induction and 25 MPG from a car that can kiss the bumper all day long on that vette, but yea it's still a subaru.for 30-40k difference i might be able to live with that. :wink:

[PHX ATC]

Corvettes get pretty good gas mileage too, because they are so lightweight.
We once had a 1992 that religiously got 23 mpg, even when you goosed it a little. :cool:

Looks like next year it will be time to throw the procharger on the viper. We are running 565 hp out of the viper now but its the tq that is bitchen. Should put it in the 800 hp range

KILR I MAKE THIS A PUBLIC PROMISS I have also heard of dealers in the midwest selling new vettes on special order 10-14 weeks of waiting for 2,000 - 2500 off sticker FOR YOU and you can give sell or transfer to 1 person if its not for you. 2500 off sticker on a new Z-06 on a special order I have 2 orders waiting SO you could be third (or someone you know) I WILL NOT BE UNDERSOLD on this

Jay,
Pm me what you can do. My parents already have one on order but if you can make it happen faster/ cheaper they will go with you.
By the way I saw you this morning when you were getting on the 22. I thought you sold your 32 already? Are you selling dave your truck? I know he has been thinking about it a lot.

I don't know about Dave he hasn't told me yet but no I haven't sold the 38 yet but thats what we are taking tomorrow do you want to go????????

[riverbound]

Would love to but I have my kids today. The wife is at some seminar maybe next time.

[MagicMtnDan]

Let's keep this thread rolling :lightsabe
Subaru is a Subaru is a Subaru. Get inside a Subaru and it's still a Subaru. Walk away from a Subaru and you don't turn around (unless you hear a crash :D ).
And I'm sure that Subaru won't keep up with the Z06's 500 HP.
As for you Viperettes, sure, you got HPs and torque and yes, you can blow it and turbo it and yes, it will scream down the street. And sure you can look at most everything in your rearview mirror ON A STRAIGHTAWAY. But I'll bet you and your silly snake can't keep up around the track. And the Viper sucks as a daily driver (well, you can roast marshmallows on the side pipes :) ).
Viper's a great car, not many of them around (and not many are selling - $80,000 DODGEs just ain't THAT interesting). But your time is up when the Z06 shows up. It's an all-around much better car. And it ain't a Dodge and it won't cost $80,000. :boxingguy

[OGShocker]

Would it pull your boat to Sask. though??
Putting a hitch on a Z06 would be like putting fake boobs on a 300lb woman. :confused: Some things just don't make sense. :D

[HammerDown]

Thats one reason (actually 2) I'd rather have it.

[spectras only]

MMD, the corvette is a sweet car :cool: .Problem with its towing cap that's rated for 2000lbs max .I know most of us have a real tow vehicle, but would be nice being able to hook up a nice HR boat behind a cool car.When I towed my 20' boat with my vette ,it could hardly pull it uphill with the L82. Anyway , I'm looking forward to the new Cherokee with the 5.7 Hemi 420HP :wink: :)

As far as that subaru WRX STI goes, Well as I was behind it today and he tried to keep it that way, but I could only see his front end.
As Jordy pointed out there is no replacement, the subaru just doesnt have a top end..... I just had to find out.

I am still impress with the car. The numbers come close to a Z06 with half the engine and a lot less HP.
0-60 .. 4.8
.25 Mile...13.2@104
and it can be raced offroad :wink:
They have a C version running oversea That is 0-60 in 4.2 and 12.5 in the 1/4 :2purples:

[Kilrtoy]

Dont get me wrong that car is very fast and will beat alot of cars
but
0-60 at 4.8
is a big gap between
0-60 at 4.1
and 13.2 at 104
to an even bigger gap at
12.6 at 114.
on paper it doesnt look that big, but when they are side by side that is huge, as I learned yesterday.
Again on the top end, the big cubic in displacement comes into play and the distance becomes even bigger.

[R.A.D.man]

I don't think that boat is hooked up to that Viper. It is kinda fun to pull a boat with a hot rod. I have a 68 Camaro with a custom hidden receiver hitch I can pull my Jet to the lake with. It is an awesome hill climber and an impressive burnout machine too. Big problem is at the ramp. If the ramp is too steep or too flat, problems can arise (low freeboard car applies here) plus it is hard to see behind you at all times. Much better to take the Yukon. Have not pulled the boat that way since being able to avoid it.
