Hahahaha. Ruffday......older than dirt.... It's good to get in touch with a bit of our Canadian history and have things straightened out.

I pretty much echo what B03Z states where people don't buy a Corvette for it's mpg, but it's so surprising with what they get that they have to talk about it, and I'm pretty sure this has been done since the C4.
And it's not only old people talking about mpg as I just saw a video of a kid who was into 'tuner' cars and bought a C5Z06 and was amazed at how good the fuel economy was.

As for being allowed to go from 0-60 as fast as possible without getting in trouble from the cops, I totally agree! But then when I was talking some other owners, they said the police can give you some sort of joke of a ticket citing some "display of power" traffic law??? Anyway, it was disappointing to hear that you can pretty much get a ticket for anything fun.... boo-urns.

Looking forward to seeing the new parts on the 85!
