Heya... What do you all think of just moving this thread over to OT?
Another possible location might be the Squeaky. Just keep in mind, that if you pick the SW that only Official Member+ can get in there (so long as they haven't been banned from it).
In either one of those forums, you can go nuts. Post whatever builds you want. SW has barely any moderation at all. I get a bit testy at most moderation attempts in Squeaky. hehe

Meh. I don't go over there a whole lot, only when it's slow at work and I've run through all the threads here. This is where i spend 98% of my time.
Your call though. Mongo just pawn in game of life.

Yeah. And it's only a matter of time before another mustang shows up anyway.
To be fair, I did notice a second corvette snuck it's way into this picture. So they really are multiplying...
In my mind it will always be.....that he's just building the vette to finance his next mustang build. Vettes used sell cheap....but those vette guys sure do have money to pay for a nice built car. Good investment.
Is @madmike1157 bored or something? Leave this thread alone. I think tanner is grandfathered in to this site and has earned the respect to build any domestic hot rod he wants here. He's a car enthusiast and not stuck on one brand only and I like that.
@tannerc91gt , please keep up with the progress. I mostly lurk in your thread but felt the need to post because of this b.s.

My neighbor had a friend over visiting yesterday and I saw them walking around a really sweet 2015 Stingray. I walked over to check it out and B.S. with them. I got to say that it's a beautiful machine, lots of little things make that car a very nice sports car. His was a convertible, he's an older guy and has a few other Vettes too. One thing I gotta say, aside from all the really cool things about the car, is that the paint job looks like that of an old 90's Cavalier. What's up with all the orange peel!!! It's hard NOT to notice it.
Mine has incredibly little orange peel compared to some of the ones I've seen. The 7s being far worse than the 6's. My friends JSB car (the one occupying my garage) has nearly none either. But the regular gloss colors, sweet Jesus some of them are awful. I toured the corvette plant a few years ago, going back again this year, I will keep my eye out for the parking lot they paint them in
If it's a good investment you can be assured it isn't my intentions lol
Hilarious!
So, from your experience, are you thinking it's a generation specific quality issue or certain colors?
just my opinion,but the solid colors of both generations show orange peel badly. There might just be enough going on in the metallic colors to make it less noticeable.
I'm pretty nervous about the paint work I'm having done this week, so I've been staring at paint quite a bit here lately lol
I did. I love c5's lines the more time I'm around them. But I've wanted a c6 since 2004 and love the rear ends on them too much to go any other route and I don't care much for the aluminum 5.7s.
They're kind of hard to compare though really, all of the Z variants are "rougher" cars, solid roof, stiff suspension track cars for the most part. Didn't appeal to me as someone who will never see a track day. My friends blue base car has a handful of suspension mods and if you don't run the shocks pretty loose it will rattle your teeth out. The C5 interior is pretty much a Silverado with a nicer gauge cluster lol
picking the rears up tommorow afternoon and will hang them about 30 seconds after I get home!
