    How in the world may I ask, did you manage to drive one of these gems?

    I hear people are waiting in line and willing to pay almost double the asking price!!! ;eekr;

    Either way, I'm sure it was a blast and I'm jealous of you for even getting the chance to sit in one....never mind DRIVE ONE!!!

    I drove the Vette Z06 a few weeks ago and it's awesome too! Wanna race?

    Tew, you actually liked the Z06? I drove one back in spring and I thought it handled like a bathtub full of water. Had a TON of get up and go, but it was an awful cornering machine. I think I need to stick to smaller rides is all. Like the STi or the EVO. No real get up and go, but cornering buggers. I simply cant have the best of both worlds, heh.

    Yeah I kinda agree. I actually like driving the Solstice better because you have to try to achieve the speed and fun. In the Z06 you spend all your time trying NOT to push on the gas (and hence kill yourself and everyone around you). Plus it's a bit nose heavy feeling even though it's supposedly 'balanced'. As much as it kills me to admit it, that Ford is pretty awesome!
