Blue Devil > GT > GT500

:flip2:

Blue Devil > GT > GT500

:flip2:
You must have misundertsood my post, i hate the gt500. I was merely stating the point that i am sick of seeing gt500 vs. c6, z06, GT, whatever else god has to offer. I'm done, move on with the thread.

Yep.

Theres no need to make it a thread debating it MustangMan, because there is no debate. :mrgreen:

[MaxwellredruM]

they are actually thinking about producing a good number of these now, albeit a retardedly high price only god can afford but still being tallahassee someones parents are bound to buy them one so well probably see one wrapped around a tree here in no time at all

[onthegasinFL]

wow $100,000 thats a great price.

[slowLX]

wow $100,000 thats a great price.Don't think for a second that any of them will be sold without a sizable "market adjustment"....

[BreBar21]

Well, I can see where this thread is headed.

[sstony]

as far as speed and performance go, doesn't a regular c6 out perform the GT500?

[onthegasinFL]

Don't think for a second that any of them will be sold without a sizable "market adjustment"....

I know I was being sarcastic. Both of the cars will be extremely expensive. The mark ups will keep them out of the hands of you average performance enthusiast.

HOLY FUCK

[Dredz172]

i'd take a blue devil any day over a ferrari 430 or a gallardo

[MaxwellredruM]

Im not trying to piss anyone off or anything but the Devil seems to have alot more car behind it for the price than the Ford, but thats only imo though i have nothing to back it up with....

I would hope it is for twice the MSRP.

*I don't count market adjustments because any jackass that pays 100,000 for a new Mustang should be shot and the Blue Devil will certainly have a ridiculous market adjustment as well.

Blue Devil, C6, whatever. I'd be supremely happy with a C5 Z06.

[fatkid]

agreed, hard to beat the C5 FRC and Z06 body lines I <3 them...

[pat94cobra]

hmmm.... how about 100k vette ss + twin turbo. =) like the c5 7.0 ltr that was in the issue of motor trend a couple years back.

[MaxwellredruM]

Ligenfelter

[pat94cobra]

lingenfelter yea. bad ass mofo.

[SteedaRR]

you should compare the blue devil with the Ford GT not the shelby. the shelby is a piece of shit.....looks sick though!!!!!

[brandboZ28]

Vette SS???

[pat94cobra]

yea in the article they had many "names" for it. vette ss , z07, stingray?? they havent made a real name for it yet

[MaxwellredruM]

i think it should have no name, just a chevrolet, or "the car"

[MustangMan]

Well, I can see where this thread is headed.
LoL

[93zm6tally]

You have good taste.

I love the C6 Z06, the "Blue Devil" version just makes it that much sweeter. The proposed price is high, and I'm sure there will be a "market adjustment"; however, I'm also confident that even with the price that it will compete favorably - on a dollars to performance basis - with many cars costing two and three times as much.

[tomwid]

Yes.. and the C5 Z06 even comes with rear brake ducts standard! :taunt: :clap:

[slowLX]

that scoop is pretty hideous. My dad audits the corvette plant, wonder if i can get a test drive:joystick:

[Slow ET]

Looks like some of the redneck scoops in tallahassee. I think the finished hood will look good... GM wont build a big dollar vette with a hood scoop that belongs on a WRX or SRT4

[pat94cobra]

looks like jimbo bobs hood on the old old firebird on capital circle right before woodville hwy. i dunno if his names really jimbo bob but that car looks pretty raggedy

[TurboStutr]

forget blue devil. it needs to be called Echinsu Ocha.you speak Wachutu??

[fatkid]

you speak Wachutu??
"Excuse me your balls are showing, Bumble bee tuna"


"EARTHQUAKE TEST!!!!, oh he's good and with my help he could be the best"

[Jasonzo6]

They keep changing the scoop...

"Yonni G," a student near Milford, Mich.-the site of GM's proving grounds-spotted this prototype on public roads last week.

"As I was driving I saw the prototype way ahead of me on the road, and it looked like a really aggressive Corvette. Luckily I had borrowed my dad's camera for a project at school and had it with me in the car and snapped some shots as it passed by. The car was amazing! It sounded very powerful and definitely did not seem like your everyday Corvette.

These shots show what's been hyped as a "Blue Devil" Corvette-so dubbed after GM CEO Rick Wagoner's alma mater, Duke University. The rumor mill suggests the super-Vette could become a reality in 2008, with a supercharged Z06-derived 7.0-liter V-8 with 600 hp and a $100,000 pricetag. Stay tuned to our auto show coverage in case the hottest Corvette ever makes a surprise appearance.

heard gm got bought by toyota. that true?

[Supradedupra]

meh... I'll consider one when the interior doesn't look like its out of a cobalt.. and the roofs stop flying off

there is more to a car than how fast it can go...

[Greg Kulbick]

Yeah, its gotta have sparkly paint, big wings, carbon fiber and stock wheels!

[Supradedupra]

Yeah, its gotta have sparkly paint, big wings, carbon fiber and stock wheels!

are you trying to describe my car?....

the "big wing" is factory... and I don't have stock wheels anymore :scratch:

[Greg Kulbick]

Its still a big wing, is it not?

[Supradedupra]

in my opinion... no it is not. If you look at my car from behind, you cannot even see the wing (it is flush with the roof line). Also, my rear wing is functional.

This is a big wing in my opinion:

[Greg Kulbick]

The tripod.com logo is a big wing?

Just because it lines up with the roof from one angle doesn't mean its not there, and visible from every other angle.

[slowLX]

It needs a shitty bodykit and a big wing like the one Elliott bought, but has not installed yet.
