Mcgoo Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Thats a lovely motor brian, nice one! Hope you'll still make it to some of the meets, I would like to see it in the flesh, or maybe get a ride? It will be interesting to see how it feels compared to the soop. Its certainly not as stealth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 Its certainly not as stealth Agreed - it's certainly not discreet! The wheels are the standard fitment. I have my eye on another set but it'll be a while before I can afford to think of things like that - I'm all spent out for now, so one thing at a time, eh? At the moment it's too quiet - you can barely hear that it's a V8. So providing this evening stays dry, I'll be putting the Borla Stingers on - then it'll sound awesome! Alex is right - outright performance is not what I'm looking for. I like something fast but I think it has to be a pleasure to drive too. This certainly is that! And it's almost as distinctive as anything I can think of. The Z06 is quicker, but I wanted a targa or convertible for holidays to the south of France or around Europe, so this will have to do. I'm happy with it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 Oh yeah - meant to say - I went looking for it in millenium yellow. Always liked it. And the factory race cars are yellow anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seifer Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 That looks awesome mate! Looks really good in yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I'm so jealous, I've got a model one just like that on my desk at work which I fondly look at now and again. I loved it when I drove one a couple of years ago, and can't wait to have enough money to blow it on another unsensible car - it'll certainly be a Corvette. Note to self : badger Keith tonight to get some overtime in....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Not my cup of tea but I bet it sounds nice. Are they plastic or fibreglass bodied? Or am I thinking of something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 When you put the Borla exhaust on, can we PLEEEEEEEEEEASE have a video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 When you put the Borla exhaust on, can we PLEEEEEEEEEEASE have a video? That could be a bit of fun! I'll have to get the exhaust fitted tomorrow. It needs to be on a 4-poster lift to get the stock exhaust off. I unbolted it all this evening but I couldn't get the thing high enough off the ground to remove it and had to bolt it all back together. DOH! I'm off for a drive..... :d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
