They are very "sensitive", but I wouldn't hesitate if they were in the #1.

Tears are shed there on a daily basis, maybe skinny jeans too tight makes'em tear up.

My father has had two Corvettes-1993 and 2003. Both have given him random issues with shutting off the engine and refusing to restart-most often while in the fast lane, etc.

He's so tired and traumatized by being stranded by his car that he almost never drives his Corvette anymore. He was always a talented shade tree mechanic, but the electronics have made it nearly impossible to fix issues like that-it seems even for Chevy.

Unfortunately the big differences between cars often comes in the intangibles-things like how it feels on the road, the experience you get while driving it...and whether it actually runs in the first place.

I just wish the gt350 was a bit more subtle - the pics I have seen all have the car with garish stripes, etc. My 10 yr old son would love it - but not sure I like the overt styling.

mermar, hopefully you can do a stripe delete to tone down the garishness. I think the silver, without the stripes would be subtle enough as a DD. They'll hear you coming long before they see it anyway! I want one.

I hear the stripes aren't painted, they're just decals.
