And my Dad is the same way too. He just has a different mind set!

First off, let me say I'm selling the Z06 and buying a SC430. The reason I'm lurking on the forum is to see what kind of power potential (and handling) the SC430 has.
Now that that's out of the way, how does 607.1RWHP sound kids?
Yep, I currently have for sale, for under $50,000, a 2002 Electron Blue Corvette Z06 w/over 700hp. The entire interior is lined with 'Koolmat', which makes it not quite as quiet as a Lexus. But trust me, 700hp will get your attention. This time, every time, again and again. Better power to weight ratio than a Ferrari Enzo, Porsche Carrera GT, McLaren F1, or Saleen S7. (Oh, and did I mention I get 25mpg from it?)
Honestly, with my record, I'm paying much more for insurance than I should be, and I'm missing my convertible Z3 and Z4. I've considered the XLR and it's an awesome car, but for $30k or so less I can get into an SC430 which seems like a much better deal to me. And will leave cash left over for Turbo/Supercharging.
Anyone feel like trading? Looking for Egyptian Sand w/Saddle interior. Happy to give anyone in the SF Bay Area of NorCal a joyride.

My advice is this. Keep your Vette. Not much parts available for the 4.3L SC430. Big mistake in my opinion.
I saw your dyno sheet. Looks like u have either ATI or Vortech System (supercharger that is). Power is very linear. Paul's SC430 is one made, its not reproduceable.
