EVO 10 or 2008 z06?
Guys ..thanks for the advice.......
I just got back from the dealer and signed off on the paper work for a new 2008 z06...:-0 8 miles on it.
Picking it up on monday...
BTW if you live in CT, Crowley Chevy is the place to go for a deal..
They were the first ones to sell the z06 at a employee discount according to GM...
I drove the car today and I m stunned....the car goes sideways at 60mph..and my traction ctrl was ON...This thing is dangerous...
I was really shocked how livable this car is as a daily driver..(going easy)..

What color did you get? BTW sweet deal you got there!
Now when you get 500 miles on it do a halltech Killer Bee intake and a dyno tune at a shop that uses HP tuner. You will be amazed at what those two little mods will do....about 38whp gain! A guy on the Corvete fourms just ran a 10:83 @ 130mph with just those 2 mods and some DR's!! After that port the TB and INT 160stat and be at 500whp. Cam and headers ( whicn I'm doing now on mine and you'll be at between 560- 600whp depending on what cam you go with! PM me if you like if your in Pittsburg your not to far from some good shops that can take care of you...make a great car even better!!
I love my Evo but they are two very different cars! both great performance cars for the $$'s and shouldn't even be compared.
Good luck

That has not been confirmed by any mag or in a real life US stock GT-R vs Z06 and as you can see by my sig I have one on order but I'm not buying into all the fanboy hype on this 3800lb car that seems to defy logic! HP vs weight. I will deside when the GT-R gets here and I take delivery...if it can perform like they claim then let the mods begin
If not I"ll flip it.
BTW the GT-R is not going to be hitting low 11's high 10's and traping 124 -128mph STOCK and there have been quite a few Z06's that have done it.
Think about itl the Z06 has 505hp @ 3050-3100LBs (options change lbs) vs the GT-R with 470hp @ 3800lbs. Do the math! AWD is a benifit on the street. At the track a RWD car will almost always cut better 60fts. FI cars also can get Heat soak on a road course vs NA and that is a consern so until I get some real world tests on the GT-R I will wait to call out numbers and claims.
