12 posts in 3 years? Maybe you would be more excited about the Corvette community.

Z06 no doubt about it cmon man. The Z might be one solid car, but it certainly isn't a z06.

My buddy let me borrow his Z06 for a week and yeah it was great but it gets old after a few days. Now if you are going to track the car yeah, get the Z06, brakes are super cheap, it's just tires that kinda get pricey.
You passed on a corvette for a base 350Z?

Not everyone can handle a true sports car, I guess.

The 350Z is more GT car, vice the ZO6.

Z06. It's just a fast, solid car. Won't give you trouble as it's in the later half of the C5 run. The C6 feels soft compared to the C5Z. The C5Z is much more raw.

O.F. you are so right on.

If you want to play to the guys, talk horse power and potential (LOL), when you play to the women, you go for the look. 350Z has the look all over the melted double popsicle with two sticks up the ***.

Look and brand name and type of vehicle gets the women Charles Field. Im sorry but the Corvette has the 350z owned even as a base model c5 or c6 any day. All you have to say at the club/bar is oh hi I drive a vette and panties wet. But you say I drive a 350z they say oh, that nissan thingy....
