Take what you read in the rags with grain of salt. Look at the numbers and try to avoid the purely subjective category's such as appearance/syle. People decide this themselves with their pocketbooks. I subscribe to MT, C&D,R&T and several Vette magazines and enjoy reading them as soon as they arrive, but it never ceases to amaze me how prejudice they seem to be sometimes. Recently C&D did a test with top-end convertibles and had new machines from everyone except chevrolet(Vette). They actually used a rental with over 15k miles on it and, as expected, complained about it. Don't think a Vette rental has been rode hard and put up wet I have some swamp land to sale you.LOL
