Full of shit once again. The number 2 you mention above is your IQ I
suspect . Didn't you also state the cayenne (the US copied the SUV
idea from Porsche too?) had a payload of 7000lbs?


24 Hours of Le Mans

2001 vette wins lemans 1-2 GTS victory
2002, vette win lemans 1-2 GTS victory

2003
Corvette Takes 1-2 GTS Class Victory at The 24 Hours of Le Mans 2003

"Corvette Tops Ferrari in legendary endurance race

LE MANS, France - The General Motors Chevrolet Corvette Racing team won
a dramatic GTS class battle at the 24 Hours of Le Mans on Sunday. The
#64 Corvette C5-R of Oliver Gavin, Olivier Beretta and Jan Magnussen
took the GTS victory, finishing sixth overall, while the #63 Corvette
of Ron Fellows, Johnny O'Connell and Max Papis took second place
honors."

2004. Corvettes win the Lemans GTS class positions 1 & 2
2005 Covettes win the lemans GTS class positions 1 & 2 again...

Porrsche does not compete in the same category as the vettes. They are
a step down from GTS.

Let me step in here. In 2003 Ferrari won the GTS class at Le Mans.

In GTS Class, the Prodrive Ferraris spoiled both the Corvette's 50th
Anniversary and the hat trick by winning GTS Class.

<hows you used bmw?>

Is what it is...a commuter car. A definite step down from a Porsche, but a
different animal altogether, so I don't know how fair it is to compare. The
BMW has a little more bite than the Audi A6 Quattros I was looking at. I
have the ASC&T option as well as some of the luxury options like heated
seats and all leather. I don't plan on hanging onto her for more than a year
or two, but like I said, it is what it is, a commuter car. I can comfortably
take clients out in it, my sons booster seat fits in it and most of all, I
put it in drive and off I go at 10MPH to work.

at Leman

or the car CD named as the best sports car, the Boxter S. They named
the corvette as the best performance car. And BMW 3 series got a best
there too.
