She's on the heavy side

Then again, for the price point, I guess you need to expect that

That's just my guess, could be less.

Can't see it being under 3000.

Well I can say I like it. The exterior reads Vette which I thought they would lose. Outside of the double-bubble roof and too many black accents (the latter can hopefully be avoided).

The interior looks far better when you see it in lighter colors looks like they gave it some much-needed thought. The button bar is a little cumbersome looking and is unusual in today's world.

The nose lift GPS based memory is pretty cool.

3300 is not bad at all in the current world.

0-60 under 3 seconds... that is impressive and getting near street tire limits.

Front axle lift is sweet. The 911 has had that for awhile and it can be very handy.

That puts it in pretty rarefied company especially with "only" 500 hp but with a smart launch system it is POSSIBLE.

Price: start at under $60k!

There you go. Get in line.

Anybody interested in a 50 year old car?

The GPS memory is what I thought was so cool, plus I think they said it was standard, on 911 tires and a steering wheel are optional...

Just dont keep it past warranty.
