That a GT500 is : Only three hundred pounds heavier than a c6 Z06 corvette?
or that it is also : "WAY" sicker than any 03 cobra - "makes it look like a V6
or that it is underrated to the point of having "like 550 hp"

All courtesy of a salesman at my local ford dealer. (The same dealership that asked if my 94 GT was a 6 cylinder when i went to buy some parts..after i told them it was a GT)

i couldn't believe what i was reading, i was about to tell you to put on a flame suit. What was the salesman's name. I bought my cobra from chino hills ford. When i arrived the guy started bullshiting me about the car. I told him i knew more about the car than anyone in probably a 100 mile radius, and to not bullshit me. Told him to let me look at it and test drive it and that i'd make up my mind after that. He didn't say a word and lost his mind when i told him i'd take it. He said he thought i was some kid who couldn't afford it.

What he didn't tell you is the weight of the person driving the Vette.
That's why I drive an 04 Cobra :D

Sad part was it wasnt a kid! he had to be late 20s...kid to some of you i suppose :p He told me to be careful because he just wrecked his '05 GT and its "hard to drive super powerful cars like ours" (referring to his GT with an axle-back exhaust) in the rain. I swear if that dealership wasnt literally 2 minutes away id never go there again.

Yea well one of the sales men told me that if you super charge a GT it would push 1000hp. Or that the 03 mach 1 is supercharged (because of the hood scoop).

Stupid salesmen with their bluetooth ear piece, huge gold rings, huge gold watch and dakar cologne.

the guy who took me for my test drive said he worked at a local GM dealership for years and always loved to take the "manual cars" out for rides......

two minutes after we left the dealership he grinded three gears....

i got in the driver's seat and showed him how to drive....lol


he was also in his late 40's to early 50's
