Default Lined up next to 2 C5 Vettes today...

I lined up next to 2 C5 Vettes today on Sunrise Blvd. I was in the middle. White T-top on my right and a black coupe on my left. They were nice cars, just stock Vettes with older gentleman driving them. We all smiled and waved at each other.

As we took off, they pulled in front of me (we weren't racing) and I saw a white cavalier pulling up on my right. I couldn't help but think: "Hey, we got 2 cars with the same exterior, but 3 cars with teh same interior!!!"

They need to do something about the interior of the vette equalling that of the cavalier. Just felt like posting that...no races, just coincedence.

There is no such thing as a t-top C5, only coupes and FRCs. Coupes have a removable top.

The old guys were probably thinking, "look at this idiot that piad twice as much as we did for a slower car."

They need to do something about the pathetic performance of the NSX.

I cant imagine driving a 75 thousand dollar "sports" car and being raped by Z28s.

Gawd, there is really nothing that bad about the vette interior, but I guess you've gotta whine about something when you're 100% outmatched and paid twice as much.

You can get a quality aftermarket interior for around $2000 including seats.

How much do you have to pay to make your car fast?

Not that I don't like it (personally) but it's considered inappropriate and possibly offensive. I don't want to see a spat start because of it.

I don't know of Z-28 raping the NSX but to post something like this I think you have a problem SoFlaNSX. Just b/c you own a NSX doesn't make you the GOD. To compare the interior of a C5 to a Cavalier is a 16 year old kid talk who can't buy neither one of them. I'M SAD SOMEONE LIKE YOU DRIVES A NSX!
