My new toy...

Absolutely, no disagreement there. I was never insinuating that this car is a better than a Miata. The Corvette to me is the best bang for the buck all the way around.

The miata is just a toy. It's fast, (has big brakes and better suspension upgrades than a stock one) I don't believe that even with these upgrades, it is anywhere as good as a spec race miata. I do believe that a spec race miata will keep up with a properly setup corvette (not HP wise, handling wise)

Having said all that, I bought the car cause I like big motors in small vehicles. It's a cool factor and the ability to smoke unsuspecting cars that deserve it. (much like I do with the supercharged H2.... I love seeing the look on their face when they get smoked off the line by a 7000 truck)
