OIC, sorry, the was for the spelling. I though it was funny. Didn't mean to connect the two thoughts.

I'd rather have an SSR than the V6 Porsche.

Honestly I was just making a point, I had one dodge and never plan to buy another. It's too bad though because if I were to ever consider a dodge it would have been something with that Hemi in it. I was interested to see what else they were going to put that in.

I never said the Z06 was the best looking car, and I think the C6 is ugly as sin. I would take a Z06 any day though.

Have you ever driven one? I had a grin from ear to ear (it was bigger when I drove the S, but not by much.)

My next car will be a Z06. Hopefully by 2008 they will have fixed the styling on the C6 and I can get my 500HP 427CI Z06!

For 42K range, i'll take a Dodge SRT-10 pickup please. Supposedly selling at 45K. Nicer looking and way faster than the weak SSR from Chevy. Barf

they look hideous, chevy's new revolution has a cool commercial with crappy cars...except for the new C6, which looks better I think than the rest of the vettes, and gets my respect as a z06, but other than that....I still think styling on American cars is for the most part nasty. Notice I said for the most part because there are a few cars I find appealing.

Chevy got the proportions all wrong when they penned the SSR.
