Re: Best Headturner for under 40k
I would disagree, I think you are underestimating much of the public. People know what a muscle car is and when they are nice and shiny.....they get noticed.

Re: Best Headturner for under 40k
The first gen camaros that compete against nsx's are not even close to stock. They are just sheet metal around a roll cage. And will compete with a NSX. I dont like how the NSX's look. IMO.
If it has to stay under $40,000 i have to go with a mallett solstice. New GXP Solstice 20K http://www.pontiac.com/solstice/index.jsp hook it up like this http://www.mallettcars.com/solstice-conversion.htm $20k standard package. |

Re: Best Headturner for under 40k
As impressive as a mallet solstice is, it will not turn any more heads than a normal solstice.

i think any car that is nice and shiny will get noticed. however muscle cars are not associated with being expensive and exotic high performance cars even though every one knows what a muscle car is. to most its just an old car with a nice paint job.

yup, the nsx is pretty much the sexiest japaneesse car ever. youd have to go to europe to find a better looking car.

Re: Best Headturner for under 40k
Well in any case I would still the factory five cobras with a nice paint job are a pretty solid head turner for around well under 40000

I did think about it a little more tho and really if i had that kind of money to just go out and spend, i would find a used 2004 corvette under 70k miles that has already been lightly modded. |

Re: Best Headturner for under 40k
the solstice isnt exactly small, it weighs over 3000 lbs. the new gxp solstice is very nice though. it beat a porsche boxter around a track. ive been impressed by gm lateley, they are putting out some solid cars unlike ford and dc which are just hogs with huge engines for the most part.

Re: Best Headturner for under 40k
GM has a pretty good lineup right now. And by 2008 GM will have more than just a Camaro up its sleeve.
Talk of a supercharged Corvettes. http://www.sema.org/main/semaorghome.aspx?ID=56133 GM also plans to make the grand prix gxp's a rwd platform car. http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/08/...grand-prix-g8/ If only they would detail the newer monte carlos and make them rwd. Maybe the monte carlo gxp will become GMs only fwd v-8 platform car, wich would be okay with me. Heres an article that suprised me. I thought the 500 horse gt500 would be faster than a regular 400 horse corvette coupe. http://www.caranddriver.com/comparis...avy-pedal.html |
