THE BOSS!!!!!!!!
Purchasing 1 car for sure.
The only other ones that interest me at all is the Sauber, Pug & Triumph. The Lincoln would be kinda cool to pit up against the Impala...but not enough interest from me to part with any monies.
The rest I could give 2 shits about.
Being a '62, the '59 Caddy would slip right in there as well? If three cars are of interest, that covers the cost of the whole pack doesn't it? And I'm betting the Boss is the pack only car? (only based on all the pleas for it to be added to the game)
Anyone seen confirmation on the pack only and free car from the pack? Should be one of each according to the news blurb.
That was the other big boat that was escaping my mind.
Was hoping for TR6 but any triumph will do. +1 on the 302 and the Camaro could be good. We got our first one at work a few weeks ago. The SS makes me go meh, but the ZL-1 is totally bitchin'. Looks evil wit the black rims and those big sticky tires stuffed under it. To bad it's destined to be a garage queen like MOST of the pussy ass corvette owners around here. Sorry off topic but could find a way off my soap box. It's so tall and I was frightened.
You know what the best part about shopping for a Corvette is?
They generally have more miles on the buffer than they do the tires.
I have a customer with a '08 Z06. He made us stop sweeping the service drive so we wouldn't stir up extra dust. I can't roll down the window for fear of getting dust in it. The mechanics are not allowed in it, I am the only one allowed to drive it. He has a three car garage but does not allow other cars to be parked with the vette, door dings. He paid the extra $ Togo and take delivery at the factory and now has framed all of the things he got off of the assembly line. He really is a super nice guy but OCD nuts. No one in our shop wants to be near that car, let alone work on it.
Those are the guys that make me want a Corvette.
I'd take it straight to the track and rail the piss out of it.....and watch them cringe as it comes back in to the pits w/ balled up rubber pasted across the nose and fenders along w/ the wheels being covered in brake dust from track pads.
The first C6 Z06 I saw was at an autocross (not running, just parked). My first thought, "Ooo, anthricite wheels on a black Z06...very nice." As I walk up to the car, "Holy shit....that's brake dust! Ok, that guy just earned some serious rep from me." The best part was.....it still had a temp plate on the back!
He had the car less than a month, and already had it out at Pacific Raceways & Portland International Raceway for track days. 
Mercedes, Scion and specially Pug
Everything else - meh
Stewie and I will be in our Triumph's..I see a Topless series coming real soon...low end, between D and B, will have to look them over. I may have to lean on Cyber a tad for some tune research, hehe.
Maybe we can get Playboy to sponsor it like the Miata series.
What time? I'm looking at a 4pm-5pm ish EDT time, for the Euro's and early east coasters. I can't take the 10-11 pm crowd.
The only car I want is the Peugeot, it is my favourite rally car of all time. I do hope it's the free car.
I bet it'll be either the Hyundai or the Scion as the free car.
Hope I'm wrong.
heard a rumor, and rumor only, that freebies the Hyundai, BUT not a confirmed speculation as of yet.
As for the 302, that's my guess as well.
That'll piss me off.
Nice looking pack ... TR3B FTW!!
302 pack only because all you USA are itching for it.
Hyundai Free car becasue no one wants it.
is that confirmed, or your pessimistic english attitude seaping through?
Pessimistic English attitude
Hah!
Oh well, I guess all we can do is wait.
I would expect the Sauber to be the "Pack Only" car. As has typically been the case w/ most of the R1 race cars. But who knows, if T10 knows they have a massive market itching for the Boss...I wouldn't put it past them to take advantage of it to get more full pack purchases.
The PUG is way to good a car to be free Group b legend after all.
Week in Review Article is up.
