Congrats. Based on your sig, your TT seems to be a monster. If you can remember back, how would you compare the two cars?

Is the Z06 now your daily driver? I love C6 Z06s and am going to be looking into a daily driver soon, but with an S2000, I'm not sure whether two two-seater cars is the most practical thing.

Again, congrats!

Nevermind, I just read the other thread and saw that you have a "Toyota Tacoma and wife's 4-Runner". Bummer...you were giving me hope for having two two-seaters.

Made comments in the 996tt section. Be very careful if you mod and track.

I "may" sell my truck. Not sure yet. Either way, we need at least one car that holds more than 2 people since I have a daughter.

Really? How old? COMPLETELY kidding! I'm only 23, so I'm at the point where I think that my years of being able to have only two-seaters are limited. My parents live about 20 mins away and both have SUVs, so if I ever needed to lug something around, I'm sure my pops would trade his Jeep for a Z06 for the day.

Again, congrats on the car!

Congrats.. The more you drive it, the more you'll like it

BTW, you can run about 6psi on the stock bottom end.. bunch of guys doing it.. Might curb some of the missing quickness you're referring to vs your 996.

Dive, I have seen your whips for years across the boards. I followed your supercharged E46 and pretty much everything since. I myself had an E46 M3, E55, M5 and now I have a black/black Z06. Enjoy it!


And as someone already posted, if you're wanting some more hp, strap a Vortech SQ2 centrifugal on it at 6 psi and youll be around 575+whp. I'm just waiting for the summer to do this to mine and buy another daily driver since I think my Gwagen has seen it's day... sorry for the rambling on, but you have some bad *** cars, and have had....

Very nice. I'm trying to decide on the C6 Z06 or 996TT.

Black is the only color for the Z06. IMO. Black, with black wheels...bat car.
