I've got the bug to buy a 2001 Roadster M with the 333HP engine but not exactly sure what model # that is. I've run across M models that claim 315 HP but none that specifically claim 333HP. From what I've been able to find out is that they only built that engine for 18 months back in 2001.
I'd appreciate any help because to be honest I'm not exactly sure of what I'm looking for.
I wanted something that had all the creature comforts with some acceleration and something that my wife could drive. Never driven a Z car but I'm sure I'd be happy with it. It's either a BMW Roadster or a new Vette... Personally I think she'd prefer the BMW. I can't believe what BMW gets for a five year old car. I'm impressed with the resale..

Vettes definitely not a slouch when it comes to looks performance and not at all least of allwhen it comes to resale . It sure does hold its value.
