Cool Video Clip - 200mph in a corvette!

Are you sure this isn't a video of Doc Miller going from Az to Texas??

Whew... I saw the title of the thread and thought it was a new Paris Hilton video.....

Ha ha, he used his blinker before switching lanes

Awesome car. I can't even afford a chevette.

 

[Mr. Jean]

Ha! I can see that scene. Guy calls girl. "Hey baby, wanna go for a ride in my Vette?" Then he shows up in a Chevette.

Ours are just stockers-you know the 400 HP versions and I'm way too old and gutless to drive 200 MPH.

One of my old HS friends pulled that on me. He told me he got a 'vette and told me he'd be over in a little bit. 30 minutes later he pulls up in a heap of sh1t Chevette.

Isn't that the worst of both worlds? For me?

I've got a 2002 Millenium Yellow Coupe that has Borla exhaust and has been reprogrammed.

It's seen 140 and it wasn't even breathing hard... can't imagine 205!!

The beauty thing about these cars... they get better mileage than 80% of the vehicles on the road. Mine averages 26 mpg in everyday driving as long as I keep my foot out of it and over 30 mpg on road trips with the cruise control set on 75.

 

[Mr. Jean]

" as long as I keep my foot out of it " but can we do it? Sure fun to drive too. Mag Red II here.

 

["Dr. Dirt"]

'07 Atomic Orange and '06 Arctic White here and, as Greg stated, our average is still above 27.5 since we purchased the car. Yeah, it's also fun to drive easy!

 

[stanman]

Nothing like driving down the road, passing another, and getting the wave... yeah, being in "the club" is cool!

Even my '68 427 roadster would get 18+ on the highway. Wish I still had that car!

Here lately, I've made it challenge for myself to see how high I can get the average mpg up too. 27.2 is the best so far... to much traffic and mountain/canyon road between home and work.

Yup.

Spring at last.
