Bigscrub, anybody can take a pic of a car and make it look shiny. I have seen black Z06's up close. I was thinking of buying a Z06 to flank my '06 Viper. They had an atomic orange one and a black one at the dealer. I ruled out the black one because of the god awful orange peel. It was the worst paint job I had seen on a modern car. The orange peel was not as noticeable on the orange one but the interior and overall appearance didn't do it for me. In the next week, I found a 2000 GTS Viper that had me sold at first sight. As soon as I pulled in the parking lot, where it was, I said to my wife, "Holy shit, I'm buying it". That is the visual difference between a corvette and a Viper.
The funny thing is, when I only had corvettes, I was always willing to concede that the Viper was higher up the food chain. I enjoyed the vettes but knew that the Viper was in another class. Why do current vette owners have such trouble doing the same? Bigscrub, you have an economy car. Come to terms with it, enjoy the every day driveability, boast to your neighbors but don't delude yourself into thinking it is in the class of a Viper. Now, how much would you charge to cut my lawn? Does this include trimming and edging?
