The curb weight of a Cobra with 2 people is probably about 4100lbs. The Z06 is 3100lbs. 1000 pounds makes a difference! The Z06 is probably the most balanced sports car ever...especially for the money...so I'm not taking anything away from it at all....but I've seen a few KB Cobras that would walk a Z06...and still have $20Gs to get a nice 2nd car...its all in what you want I guess! With that said...I want a Z06!

The 2006 Z06 has an exhaust that fully opens over 3800rpm. It bypasses the mufflers and sounds exactly like that stock. It's almost deafening loud with the stock exhaust

so I guess the vid is quite exciting then, for a stock Z06 to do this to a modded Cobra! that chip+pulley = some big power!! I mean really.

There's already aftermarket exhaust out for a Z06? That was fast.

oh yeah,

As far as the vette, nothing was mentioned in the whole thread about any mods. I have however been blown past by a c5 zo6 and it sounded a hell of a lot meaner than this z06 did on film. Overall the c6 sounded tame.
