Yea, i think its because it simulates the feel of death, you hit the throttle and instantly "see the light"

See this is the misinformation you get from the internet my friend. The Z06 suspension shares no aspect or component with anything else from chevy. I've never heard the Z06/Malibu one either 
Infact the Z06 suspension is even quite different than even the base C6 suspension. The steering wheel... also not even close to another platform's. It does share some plastic textures, and used to share stereo/climate control pieceshttp://www.automobilemag.com/auto_sh...ring_Wheel.jpg

The entire suspension is very highly tuned. I don't think it would be pulling well over 1G on the skidpad or lapping huge times at the nurburgring if it had pickup truck/malibu suspension

NOTHING! 997TT and gallardo are two of the SEXIEST looking and fastest cars on the road! PERIOD!
I like what he said, so true.

How in the hell did a Gallardo vs 997TT video turn this thread into another Z06 vs 997TT thread?!
The continuous bashing of cars you don't personally like is getting ridiculously old. And so are the blatent instigations that seem to be popping up more and more as of late. And yes...I'm talking to SCvett00, Allanlambo, Porsche C4...and everyone else that seems to constantly add fuel to the fire in these types of threads.
Knock it off already, or I'm closing the thread.
