I owned a 2002 C5 Corvette convertible before I bought the ISF. I loved that car. I really miss the stick and the drop-top.

I don't think you can go wrong with either if it suits your fancy. The F suits my needs better at the moment than a Corvette would.

What I really want is a turbo cabriolet Porsche with a stick, but I just don't want to pony out the shekels for one.

I think everybody ought to get a chance to own a 'vette in their lifetime. It's a one-of-a-kind car, especially since the C5 and C6. Good solid vehicle, you can't hurt them if you tried.

The downside is you don't get the complete kiss-your-assets service that the better Lexus shops will give you. My C5 vert was as trouble-free as a car can get, but some were not.

Like I said, I loved it and would definitely consider another.
