Yes I have driven a Vette. It did have tracktion control, and it was all over the place. Way too much power, the steering feedback was shit, think it understeered, i could whip the tail end out in a second.

I wasn't talking about power or bang for the buck. I was talking about an elegant, sexy, fast, and extremely well handled car. The Vette isn't on the same page as the NSX, at least not in my book. I see a Vette on my bike and laugh, I see an NSX and i go "ooooh". As for the 911's, OMG plz. I hate those cars, there is only one good 911 in my book, think it's the GT2, ?? That's the 911 I'd drive, but would still rather have the NSX. You might have not been speaking of the -R but if you were going to drop that much money why not get the -R? I've smoked several porsche's on the bike, have even taken one all the way up to 130.
