Boy - that was an easy choice.. :P
But technicaly, the C5 and C^ are 2 seperate platforms, and ideally you need to differentiate between the C5 Z06 and C5 Coupe... and the C6 Coupe/C6 Z06. There are just that many weight, strength and rigidity differences. And that isnot even considering price... I think you also need to differentiate whether the SRT/10 is Coupe or Convertible.. again enough differences to be considered when using the platform for an "ultimate street car" You also havent said whether special setups/wheels/tyres are allowed for each different category, or if the idea is to use the very same setup, right down to tyres and wheels and suspension setup for all venues. This also makes a difference. ;) |
Opel Calibra Turbo 4x4 or Ford Escort Cosworth, but I prefer the Opel ;-)

Well with money being a factor, its hard to go against the C5 ....its an older car and can be gotten for a good price now...easily upgradable....kinda unfair.
Other than that it would have to be between the Evo and the Mustang for me. The C5 has a huge advantge on that list, but that too easy, so i'll pick the Evo |

And few people will seriously start with a C5 coupe when the C5 Z06 is so cheap and accesible. I mean in reality, you coul dleave the LS6 stock, except for headers, intake and muffler, and upgrade the brakes/suspension a little, peal off some weight and be absolutely dominant in many catagories. Where as doing the same thing with the C5 coupe requires replacing pretty much everything, as the 'base' C5 Vette is far below the C5 Z in stock form. Its like trying to start with a stock Mistubishi Lancer gutless rental and trying to build an STi killer, vs just getting a used EVO from the get go. |
