My sisters got a 1997 Acura integra LS. 128ft trq and weights 2685lbs
The Corvette I test drove was a L48 has near 200ft trq and weights 3,534 lbs

The corvette is 1,000 lbs heavier! I definetly noticed a difference with the integra and corvette. The integra was quicker, lighter and accelerated better than the corvette. The corvette was also 350 ci while the integra is 110ci.. yet the integra was faster. I could barely tell a difference with my fathers nissan pathfinder and the corvette acceleration. My fathers SUV has more horsepower than the vette, is bigger and accelerates about the same as the corvette.
Plus you crash in an integra (I have) you don't die, as a matter of fact I didnt even get a scratch. But if you crash in a vette you die. Go to crashtests.com. There arent many people that get injured in a vette, but the death rate is Poor ( the worst you could get). Maybe nobody gets injured in a vette because they all die...
