dont get me wrong
the z06 is NOT a bad car

its just not a great car...

time out

why are we even talking about z06s ?
we should be talking about beating f430s and gallardo's , not chevy's and dodges

 

I swear this board is so damn ignorant sometimes. How can so many people be so eager to discredit a fantastic car. Finally, something useful produced from an American Auto Manufacturer and you take a crap on it. Nice.

 

Anyone ever get that deja-vu feeling? I can't put my finger on it...

 

Yeah ! And the Vette and Chris can both bench two fitty !

 

you guys have a lot to learn

 

im not taking a crap on it
but hey, its NOT in porsche territory


for crying outloud , the damn car still uses leaf springs

 

Ive used the same 2 blade razor for the last five years.....my son has always asked me "dad why do you use that old razor".....and the reason remains "because it works so dammn good"....why dont I have a Mach 23432 razor....because mine works perfect.

Leaf Springs work great in the corvette

 

... they are fast though

 

To each their own guys.

 

Bozos shoot their mouths off about something they know nothing about, on next week's exciting episode of THE INTERNET!

 

You are the most uninformed hater I have seen on this forum to date. To make the ludicrous comments that you have made and never set foot in one just makes you look like an idiot. No, it does not have the build quality of a Porsche but I have to tell ya... the 996tt that I own IS NOT worth the $126K sticker price that was attached to it brand new. It is a helluva car but should have been priced around $90K.

There are countless people that own both a Z06 and a Pcar and many more that have sold their PCar for the Z06.

Are you aware that PCars still use McPherson struts? Not exactly the best quality there huh?

We should be talking about Ferraris and Gallardos huh? Are you aware that the owners of those cars are the same people that say "why the hell are we comparing our cars to a Porsche?"........Get over yourself already.

 

skojasevic, you are not only ignorant, but misinformed.

The Corvette does not "use leaf springs" it has A SINGLE transversely mounted composite leaf spring that helps stabilize the rear-end under hard acceleration. The car still has a coilover strut/spring setup at each corner.

Please get a clue or stop posting useless garbage in this thread.

 

i have driven the c6 z06
its not for me
i prefer the porsche
that is all

 

Steve, reps for you fot finding those pics. LMAO

In all seriousness though, the Vette isnt a car for everyone, period.
No matter how fast it is or how inexpensive it is. Kudo's to Chevy for kicking it out, lets just hope the roof's stay on.
I have driven one and yes they are fast no doubt, for me it is not a complete package thats all. Alot more than brute HP is needed to make me happy in a car.





LOL ^ cant let that "roof" thing go.

 

hey listen
all im saying is that , YES it is a respectable car
BUT
in my eyes, and maybe im ignorant(which is probably the case here), but i would still take a porsche

maybe its a psychological thing, but for me , a porsche is the pinnacle of high performance motoring
