Default old vette/new cobra

i sold my 65 conv corvette in jan of 05(at barrett-jackson, a good experience).327/365hp...side pipes..a great driver but by no means a trailer queen..i love the styling of the old detroit cars but the handling was 40 years old..So last year i bought a Backdraft...If you have never driven in one, it apples to watermellons...They are both loud, stinky (says my wife), and head turners...but the combination of todays BMW driving technology and 60's styling in nice to have...and the performance difference is substantial..no more "spongy" feel driving thru the texas hill country..
