Chevy likes to keep it a Goldfish with a rocket ship attached.


Also, if your looking for Modding.... i know that the 335i is known for its abilities but lets look at this.... after THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of dollars, and blown warrantys... you get close to 400whp and 400lbft.... which is what you get with a STOCK corvette...


3k into the corvette and you've got 550hp in a 3200lb car.



Plus... and i know this is subjective, but imo there is nothing you can buy which will match the exhaust note on a Vette....


The C6 has so many CHEAP mods available, I've seen modded C6's reaching into the 10's. It's amazing.

Also oil changes = $65 at the dealership
BMW oil changes = $80+ if you do it YOURSELF, $300 at the stealership

Also +1000000 on the exhaust note. The C6/Z06 have the ANGRIEST exhaust note I've ever heard on a car. It's even better than the viper.
