I think that's what HE wants to do. I wouldn't do it, but that's just ME.

Hell, I'd trade out for a C5 Z06 in a minute if my wife didn't think they were total redneck cars.

I wouldn't do it because I just don't like them or Mustangs. I think after modding a Z you can get pretty close to Z06 performance and the Z looks better, JMHO.

If I was to win a Z06 I would trade it in or sell it that same week and buy something else, but if that's what you like go for it.

Smart words. I agree with you on that.

I have the opportunity to trade in for an 03 C5 Z06. With my 100 shot of Nitrous my Z still got pulled by about a car maybe a little more by a Z06 with Intake, Headers, And Exhaust but untuned. I think it could stay even with a stock z06. But thats on a 100shot. The Z06 would have the power all motor ALL the time. I don't know I like to race so maybe thats better for me. Besides I like the fixed roof coupe body style.

Dew it, Dew it, as Stiller would say! It's the BBB currently out there! Nothing wrong with putting some money back into America...were in trouble on many levels and in many sectors economically, things are not good!

I like my Z, but those new Vettes are sweet! I never saw them as a redneck car either and I grew up in REDNECKVILLE...aka Southern IL.. Camaro, Firebird, any Mustang, and Thunderbird aka NASCAR...yes, I would definitely agree.

Both my brothers have owned Vettes and they have been nothing but trouble. I'd pass... but that's just me.

Honestly I don't understand people who change cars every 2 or 3 years or people who lease for that matter. There are some people who are forever making car payments. I bought my first car in '94 made payments for 4 years, drove it for 6 more years w/ zero payments and then bought my Z last year. I plan to pay off the loan in about 3 years and probably drive it 2 more and then get a new car, which I plan to pay for with cash.
