The Tiger Z100 is the best bang for the buck. ($80k) It would whomp a Vette on the track or on the strip anyday.

Chevrolet has announced that the fastest Corvette ever—the 505-horsepower Corvette Z06—will achieve 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds while still in first gear! 2007 Corvette is a global icon for world-class sports car performance at an incredible value, and offering the fastest production Corvette ever at this price is another testament to that reputation. When you compare the 2007 Corvette Z06 performance stats to other supercars, you see numerous examples where you’re getting better performance with Corvette for one-third the sticker price of the competition.
LS7 7.0-liter/427-cubic-inch Gen IV V-8 engine with lightweight reciprocating components
505 horsepower (373 kw) @ 6300 rpm
470 lb.-ft. of torque (657 Nm) @ 4800 rpm
6-speed manual transmission
7000 rpm redline
Aluminum body structure with one-piece hydroformed perimeter rails frame and magnesium engine cradle
Carbon-fiber composite front fenders, front wheelhouses and floors
Dry-sump engine lubrication system
Hand-built engine at GM’s new Performance Build Center
Unique design styling that includes a larger grille, cold-air scoop and lower air splitter, wide-body front and rear fenders and a taller rear spoiler
Engine, transmission and differential oil coolers and steering cooler
For all its race-inspired functionality, the Corvette Z06 also is designed to be refined as a daily driver with a sophisticated and comfortable interior and generous cargo volume. The Z06 will be offered in Machine Silver Metallic, Victory Red, Daytona Sunset Orange, Le Mans Blue Metallic, Velocity Yellow Tintcoat and Black exterior colors.

I could make this for less than 100k, and it'd have a corvette engine in it, because you use a corvette in this car kit. The only other thing I'd need is a G50 to get this thing rolling.

More attractive than any ford

Huh? Its stock. Thats how it comes from the factory and yes it is produced... By Tiger Motorsports. Just because its not made by a LARGE company doesent mean its not produced.
BTW thats more of a sports car than a Vette is.lol

i think id have to go with the new shelby mustang - extreme edition (everything taken apart and whatever they dont like is replaced with what they do like) also comes with 2 numbers for registration the shelby and standard mustang (eliminating the high insurance cost of a luxury car) Its border line tho - i think arround 80k or so

That Soltice Hot Rod did is pretty sweet, but I doubt it's under 100k, and not production by far. Hot Rod is so far away from their root's these day's it never ceases to amaze me

In the '60s they were telling you how to swap a brand-new Corvette engine into a brand-new Nova. I see no difference

exatcly there are much better cars then the F60

i have my dream car on order, in 2008 it will be shipped , its a TVR sagairs , very crazy car , my father had one when he was younger but it was a open wheel model of the TVR's , he loved it
and now i am going to buy one , its just they are having toubles having it in canada so they have to redo some other stuffin the car
it is my dream car!
lambo well it has a litte catching up to do with motors and powertrain , the gallardo is lacking in spots.
but its the TVR ( any model ) and rs6 at 200 mph its a rocket for a 4 door saloon

I like the Audi R8. It's probably not under 100K but it's the coolest car I've seen. I like it more than any ferrari, porsche...

I can't believe no one has mentioned the Acura NSX, heres a nice 2005.
Base price at about 89k, not sure what the options on this one totaled.
