Just to add insult to injury, I read in same publication that the Vette will no longer be GMs quickest car. Some Caddy will be...
Freedomeagle1953 I love Vettes too but the 74 to early 80s Vettes were all Dogs..
My Father in Law had a 75 Buick with a 350 that was smoking new Vettes then.
My 67 wasn't touched by a new vette until the C4s arrived in early 80s.
Of course my 67 was not a creature comfort car and was a Garage Queen for several years but 0-60 and 1/4 mile ets in low 11s made it my favorite car. It was stolen from me in 83 and totaled. Only justice was a broken back and wrist slap to idiot who stole it.. .. Oh well I sold the 427 to a friend who still has it in his 69 Chevelle.. My best friend has a tricked out 2003 Mustang GT with turbo tech Blower,headers , etc. 400+ HP. all for about $31,000 car will smoke 90% of whats on the road and cars that cost twice as much.. and FMC honors warrentee!!! Seems the way to go today if you want V8 rear wheel drive bang and have limited Bucks.. I don't think the new GTO has room for underhood bolt on performance.
My plans to buy my Dream Vette before I turn 55 are now smashed by the C6 joke . A 05 Mustang project may be in my future and many other Muscle car lovers futures...
Be Well/DBF
