great pics and ride - I drove a friend's Z06 the other day and I just LOVED it - the torque is AMAZING - but you knew that already. I'd love to have one someday..

Looks great. When I saw Z in the title I though it was going to be a 350Z.

Yeah, for stock performance, you really can't do much better for the money.

I am going to start tracking the car come this fall, I can't wait!!

Hahahaa, no offense to anyone (the 350 is a great car), but I don't think that I will ever give up the Z06 for 350Z.

Unfortunatley, the Vette has a hell of a lot of wheel gap, but sits low as it is. So, I will probably bring her down only an inch or two-as that will severly inhibit driving. But it is ok, cause she is going to be a weekend car now.

1995 4Runner. Great everyday car. I can through crap in it and not worry about it. Best of all, I can through my bike in it.

Oh, and I wish I had a garage. I am lucky to have covered parking. For the most part, the Z is covered all snug like bug in a rug.

Nice car…

The C5 Z06 is hot and there are certainly plenty of them for sale right now at decent prices.
Unfortunately after taking a drive in the C6 I can’t get over all the improvements they have made.
But I don’t have either right now so I’m just rambling.

Yeah, I like the styling in the inside along with the all the technology advances in the cabin (keyless ignition, navi etc.). However, the frame is just about the same as long as the suspension, so not much new there. Furthermore, I am not a big fan of the new style. I love projectors, and wish I had them on my Vette, but the C6 just doesn't seem as special to me, not as unique.

Para gustos hay colores.

yea when anyone says "the Z" there is usually only one kind of car they are referring to... and it's not a Z06. A Z06 is, a Z06. Wouldn't wanna get them confused, as they are both entirely different animals.
