Is your Chevelle really faster than the Evo (160+ MPH), or is it quicker in the 1/4 mile?

I had a 02 Z06 vette before this one, thats tough to beat. Although I'm waiting for the C6 Z06 that should be a car that requres almost no modifications.

How does the track model Z handle when compared to your evo? Im trying to convince my wife to get one...

by the way I had a Mustang Cobra which was a beast!! But my EVO is much more exhilerating to drive.

+1 on that...I drove a 2000 C5 before the Evo...the Vette had amazing top end on the highway, but the Evo handles better and is more fun to drive, IMHO...

Try driving a Lingenfelter 427TT Corvette...it's a 9-second car with an automatic transmission and a warranty...only about $100K, too!
