c5 z06 is one of the best all around cars to get for the price. straight line, top end, handling, braking, etc. The only real downfall is the horrendous interior

The C5Z is faster handles better, and I just like the look a lot better.

If I was going to gwet a c6 it would have to be a Z06 and that is way out of my price range

really nice vette. z06's are badass. I was looking for one before i got my 2nd evo. Just couldnt stand the interior.

btw, i thought the new c6 was faster than the c5 z06?

The C5Z06 does 0-60 in the low 4s, so it is the same as a regular C6, but the C5Z is light as hell in coupe form...and the titanium exhaust is just sick.

I can't believe the people commenting on the vette's "inferior interior" and saying "evo>corvette"

when driving a zo6 you must pay extra attention, also i hated the fuel economy 1-4 shift
if the road is a little damp forget about it.
my previous car before the zo6 was an 01 dinan 12 point m5.
