kumar! Hey man, it's DT from the CF I took a little break after I sold my Z06 to have some fun with an S2K. I see the guy who bought it already has it back up for sale (I'm very tempted to buy it back).

I find the sides and back of the car gorgeous, but I just don't find the front--specifically the hood--attractive at all.

I sat in one at the auto show yesterday. The Interior was a bit nicer than I expected.

The vette does feel like your sitting in a boat compared to the S. Big stretched hood and the interior doesn't let you feel any closer.

But man they are beautiful cars.

I don't think I could own one after sitting in it though. I could tell it was going to feel a bit gt "numb".

One time, I went to Best Buy and I saw this Toshiba HDTV. It wasn't on, but it looked stylish and cool with a high quality stand. After seeing the TV just sitting there not displaying anything, I was sure I wouldn't like the show "Lost."

^^^ Sorry to upset you... But I highly doubt I will feel connected with this car similar to the S. I've briefly owned a C4 in the past and the c6 trim gave me the same feelings. Mind you they are a lot different, but the overall drivers position was not one I liked (hood view, cockpit, etc..)

I guess me saying GT numb was a little premature without a testdrive.
