The new Z06 and C6 models have a real nice interior, and ride a lot softer than lots of other 500bhp+ sports cars... Plus, does the Atom ride smooth?

Looking for that little euro or jap car niche that has better cars in similar price ranges and classes? Forget it. Stick to the econoboxes.

American V8 carrying automobiles will always have the widest margin of domination across all forms of racing because no other type of car can overcome the hurdles of having to deal with...high costs, fwd, unreliabillity, availability of parts.

Get over it kids, the corvette is a good deal and it owns. Of course you can build a faster car for cheaper, but that's not what the arguments about, is it?
Nobody is arguing that the corvette isn't a badass car. The original argument was that the atom would beat it in almost every aspect except for top speed (obviously).

Hell I think my nephew's playskool toys have better ride and interior quality.

yeah I don't know what the argument is then. An atom cannot be an everyday car. I've seen granny's driving z06's getting groceries.

I rode shotgun in a C6 at 176mph down a shitty country road. I was impressed, straight and solid. The roof sounded like it was going to pop off though.

Being an everyday car wasn't the argument either, it was which would perform better. It only takes enough time for the light to bounce off the picture of an atom, be received by your eyeballs, and processed by the brain to immediately realize it wouldn't be a viable everyday car.

I don't see how this turned into a discussion about the Z06... It's short about 150bhp and 400lbs too fat

ha ha ha. I love how you get all butt hurt as soon as anyone makes a negative comment regarding the c6. Dude pull your redneck head out of GM's ***. You carry on like you designed the ------ thing yourself! Why get so worked up about people not agreeing with you that its the ultimate supercar!? I just knew you were gona come out with a string of posts to back up your precious after my comments. Just deal with it man, not everyone thinks its the ----! Oh and for the record, Clarkson is a bit of a dick.
