Well my personal dream car is an Ultima GTR with a mildly built LS7. It seems to be within your budget but I don't know how you feel about kit cars, though.

And why I won't get a GT-R.

Wow, it will be twice as hard to keep the diff in the V with 556 HP on tap. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif)

But yeah, I do like the V.

ZO6.... any day of the week.

Best pushrod V8 ever built by a manufacture, period. With some simple work that thing can make the power of the ZR1 and it's NA. I think the car looks better than the ZR1 as well. (Headers, Cam, Springs, PRs, Minor head work, Injectors, Intake, tuning and of course a better clutch and aluminum flywheel! = SCARY FAST!)

The thing that kills me the most is how all the "tests" with the ZO6 they can't 1/4 mile what owners actually do and all the track times are on the POS GY run flats. A set of real tires like those on the GT-R will make the car even more of a beast!

The V has a cast iron diff now, so that should help.

Edit to add: I rode in an Auto version a couple weeks ago. It definitly puts you back in the seat, but I didn't think it was 556 HP worth. But the driver was driving like a p_ss_y. .

someone bought a brand new toy, but not telling who it is...
only down side is that person has to wait till the spring to enjoy it... from what I heard, it was worth the purchase @ 30% off, brand spanking new.
