Also, for aerodynamics. The top speed for the base Vette increased from 179mph to 186, and lowered the drag coefficient.

I love the Z06
i'm still iffy on the C6 though, it's definately not as sexy as the C5. The squared the car up to much. From the lights back to the windshield it's very viperish. I think the rear is hideous
and i'm soooo pissed the got rid of the FRC

which is amazing, because the c5 had some of the lowest ratings of any car
Looks like a cross between a Trans Am and a NSX. Many Vette fanatics hate the recent 'Japanezed' vettes. I like the Sting Ray and early ones. I guess I just don't get the attraction since then.

Here's an interesting fact. In the past 20 something years, when a "new" corvette was introduced, prices were firmly set at at least MSRP for years after the introduction of the car. The C6, which was introduced not even a year ago, is already selling for below sticker. Interesting when you think about it.
