Not to get into a pissing contest, but I would never compare my NSX to the Z06, or the C6. My NSX is a very unique beast and would be very costly to duplicate. The Z06 I would leave stock for use on the track.
Enjoy.

For less than the over, I can Mod it it with more HP.
550HP for about 10g's.
I will be putting my self on the 08 Z list when it comes out. I jumped in too late and alot of the dealers are out of their allocation.
I have flow to several places around the country and the deals get worse.

To me $20-$30k for that extra isn't a lot of money. Sure you can do mods but you have to worry about warranty, the quality of the installs, headaches if things go wrong, etc etc.
I've been there - modifying my NSX. I prefer to buy from the factory with minimal mods if I had the choice.
PS - I tried to get on a waitlist for the Z06, but had problems with the dealer I was dealing with (allocation, etc etc).

You want unique to give your NSX a run for the money.
This is when I got interested in the Vette.
Jim Cavezal (Passion of the Christ) was at my studio doing ADR for a film.
He has 1 of 2 vettes ever built. Jay Leno has the other one.
428, 660HP with nitrous.
The tires are so big he gets tire bits on the back of his side views.
He told me that if he hits the Nitrous in 1st the wheels just spin.
Would love to see that run down the track. Sick.
Thanks for the respect. Right back at you.

I didn't think I would have noticed a difference until I test drove the Vette.
So within 15 minute of getting out of my Z and into the Vette, the difference was noticable.
When I got back in the Z, I felt the difference.
The Z has power, but not quite like this.
I'm not dissing the car. I almost bought the 2006 model.
I love the Z. I may buy another one in the future.
I am have a little bit of a hard to parting with it too.

He meant no harm and things got just a little bit tweaked.
We're all car guys here. Let's all go have fun.
