>>15532013
Why don't you just get a job,?
Are you black or something?

>>15532051
I do have a job, it pays $11/hr which isn't quite enough to pay the astronomical rent prices where I live and car payments at the same time. I'm still in college, so without a degree my options are limited.

`

Because I want based ZR1

because in the real world, its actually an unreliable turd, with piss-poor build quality, that happens to be slower than an almost 10 year old nissan, americuck

>>15531886

Just buy a c6 z06 or c5 z06. Still great but way cheaper.

>>15531906
>can i be faster than a gtr for 50k
No, you'll probably want a Z06 (70K). Then again, a GT-R costs 110K.
>and i need to get 35mpg but chevrolet only says 29mpg, what gives
It gets 30+ mpg highway iirc, not combined. You don't 'need' mpg anyways, that's what commuter shitboxes are for.
>can i pull more g's than a 918 for 50k
Probably not, you'll want a Grand Sport with a Z07 aero pack.
>does it have awd? i need to get around in the snow
Nope. You could use a winter beater or good tires and throttle control.
>does the 50k model have f/i
No, the Z06 does (again, 70K starting)

>>15531886
Stop baiting.>>15534398
C7 isn't out yet,

>>15534983
so basically its trash?

>>15534398
>>15534991
C7 ZR1 isn't out yet, C6 ZR1 is slower than a C7 Z06.

Because parts and maintenance are a bitch.

Rather wrench on 90s shit boxes. Might drive a C4 for a week and flip it just to say I've owned one.

>>15534995

Parts are common as fuck unless you're in Europe, where you'll get the US equivalent of rice tax on them.

Don't buy into the 4 year college/white collar office job meme
I worked in fast food and went to tech school for a year for welding. It was only $3,500 for the year so no student loans. Now I make $30/hr in a state where the average hourly wage is $21/hr.

>>15535160
I didn't, I'm going for a 2 year associate's at my community college in automotive technology. Fuck paying literally tens of thousands of dollars at a 4 year college for a degree that's mostly useless. I'm getting one in a skilled trade in what I'm interested in that will never go away in my lifetime for about 5 grand total.

The cooling system should be pressurized to 15 psi which increases the boiling point of the coolant. The cluster makes no sense.

Just get a Tesla instead

Fuck off. Even if I had the 50k to burn on a sports car I sure as hell wouldn't go with a new GM product. Only time I'll touch their shit is if it's used.

The convertible C7 looks so cool.

Because I don't want intrusive OnStar bullshit in my car. Give me a model without it and a damned audio system more friendly to upgrades and I'd buy one.

>>15531890
You are not the only one my friend

Alright /o/, I know the point of this thread was to initiate the GT-R vs Corvette shitposting but I actually want to hear opinions about C4 Corvettes and how good or bad idea buying one would be. So tell me about C4s and why I should or shouldn't think about buying one?

>>15531886
Spending money on a plastic pig that overheats when driven hard and voids warranty on anything.

>>15538251

How is it intrusive? It costs money to subscribe and they can alert paramedics if you fall unconcious in an accident. There's also an app that lets you start your car remotely from any location. I use it when I'm inside a building to precondition my car.

>>15538904
The only c4 I'd consider is a zr1, but that's c5 money and the c5 is just as good but not as good as the c5z which costs marginally more a c6 costs only slightly more that the c5z, at that point you might as well just get a c6 which is not as good as the c6z and that costs the same as a gently used c7 at which point you might as well go for the c7z or save for a zora

Of course not. What part of "poor" did you not understand?

>>15543027

I thought turbo kits were fairly inexpensive but guess not my mistake. maybe you can turbo it in the future. 3800 seems like it has decent potential even if its not anywhere near LS levels.

>By far the best performance value in automotive history

Only if you live in the U.S

>>15540368
That may be true in the states but where I live c5s cost twice as much as c4s do, c6s cost about 50% more than C5s do and c7s basically don't exist yet.

I hope one day I can own a c7. I have a c5z but I would buy a c6z before I bought a c7. Just because, you know, ls7.

Pretty much all North America. Even in Europe there's not much that can touch it unless you opt for one of those barely legal tupperware no roof shitboxes, but those aren't really comparable as the c7 interior rivals the likes of Lexus/Ferrari
>>15543951
Hes right tho.
If my calculations are correct an extra 50 rpm in 7th would still yield roughly 37 mpg
