i just went to borders to check out this article and i cant find it nowhere in road and track

 

Is it the Jan or Feb? Or could it be the march issue?

 

The C6 is the pinnacle of turd polishing. They've done a great job polishing the turd nature of the core components of that car, but it's still a turd no matter how shiny it is. The new Z06 is a different story, and is what the C6 should have been in the first place. However, GM's pathetic QC is still evident in the Z06..

 

Odd. I looked in a local B&N and didn't see a single edition of R&T... Sounds like an alien abduction to me.

 

...trouble is, there are alot of folks driving at 7/10ths thinking they are driving 9/10ths

 

VERY true!

My finishing order (because I want to and it's my opinion- deal with it):
9 (although I would say 20th if I could). Bmw Z4 3.0
8. Nissan 350z 35th Anniversary Edition
7. Boxster S
6. SLK 350
5. Dodge Viper SRT-10
4. S2000
3. Lotus Elise
2. Porsche Carrera S
1. C6 Vette

 

^ sounds like you haven't driven a new boxster S... it's a MUCH better car than the old one. It's the first boxster that I've liked better than my S2000. It's faster, it has wonderful steering feel, awesome brakes, etc. Feels solid (not nearly as plasticy, etc). Rides more comfortably, but just as well damped, huge amounts of grip...

The shifter is kind of suck, though. That's about the only complaint I could find... that and the fact that it costs double what the s2000 does!

Anyway, for an only car, it's definitely better than the elise. I bet it's not much slower around a track, either... (elise aerodynamics are a limitation)
