Thumbs down Interesting convo I just had with a C5 owner

A husband of a coworker just dropped by the office. I see him pull up in a red c5 (auto) vette. He walks in and we get to talking. I mention that on my way to work this morning I was in the cobra and there was a vette in front of me, and when we messed around, he couldnt shake me. The vette owner then tells me, "Oh no, that can't be, the dealer told me that there's nothing on the road that can touch a corvette." I pointed out that stock for stock, the vette would hand the cobra it's ***, but that the cobra now has many mods, and seems to do ok on the street. He pointed out that the cobra has 400hp and 400 torque. I said, "Oh, you have a z06?" He said, "no, it's a 99..." At this point I realized arguing was futile, and I asked if he'd like to go run em. He said no cause it would be a waste of time I HATE cocky/uninformed car owners!!
