Stingray Destroys M Toys
Revenge is wonderful: while driving my M235 last Friday an M4 showed up and took off at FT next to me. I did not want to follow.
Saturday the same AH in his white M4 shows up while I am driving my Stingray. I destroyed his ego so bad that surely he will never play again with a big bore V8..... |

Good for you. A stingray still looks like crap IMHO. |

'14. With only one minor and insignificant mod.
Was fun to take on that M. In retrospect I should have done it with the M235; Probably at minimum kept up with that M4 considering how the vette outpaced it! |

Not a fan of American stuff but Stingray is legit IMHO. I think it looks great in stock trim. Unfortunately so many of them have Chrome Wheels and other silly things like that that many look ugly.
Personally, I can find only one fault with the Stingray...it's the boy racer instruments. I wish they would've put legit, cleaner, purposeful instruments to match the legit looks and performance. With that one exception, I think it is the best performance car for the money in the world. Congrats, most guys would be happy just having either one...you have two! |

Maybe for fun you guys should find a deserted road at 10K feet elevation and give it a go? If you are a researcher, you probably understand what will happen in rarefied air. : ) |

Don't let these snobby haters hate, the Vette is an awesome supercar at relatively bargain prices.

Yes... I think posting about how your M235 fared and how the M4 reacted would have been a lot more interesting, and relevant, to people on this forum.

Last set of personal choices was 1. StingRay 2. Boxer 3. M4. Had a Bucket List moment & got the 435M-Sport & FFR Cobra instead.

Hey guys,
My M235i is faster than my V6 Mustang convertible. Just an FYI! And my post is still more relevant to this site than your thread. |

I would take a Cayman S over all of these...but I am partial to German cars. I would still take an M4 over the Vette. I love old vets from the 60s but that is it. I hate the looks of modern Vettes.

Hideous is not the word...gaudy would some it up. I am not a fan of Ferraris or Lambos either as far as how they look. Personal taste is all
