I am also trying to sell my 03 Lemans Sunset, but I am trying to get a 370z with sports package.

I have been doing a lot of research on Corvettes lately though. It might be my car after college. Have fun

i've been dreaming about z06's since before i bought my very first car. I've never been much into BMW's other than the e36 m3, so i think for now i'll stick to my vette.

Do you have any plans for it? Or are you just going to keep it stock? I personally love them when they are blacked out. Looks very aggressive to me.

nice vette, but i dont think i could ever get rid of my Z permanently. Its been my dream car. I just love the body lines and the overall look and performance of the car. It'll be one of those cars when im old have it in my garage like people have classic muscle cars now

I kept my 05 Z and bought a Ford SVT Raptor. Best of both worlds and my Z still has 53K on it.

What did that end up costing you if you don't mind me asking. I've been debating on that truck, SLT Sierra or a LTZ silverado. I'd rather have the raptor but I can't even find one for sale in my area.

I have driven both a c5 corvette and a Z, and I would have to say I loved the Z in almost every aspect more than the vette. The corvette is badass dont get me wrong, but it is just crappy compared to the quality of the Z. The steering felt so sloppy and the rattles everywhere and just the way the transmission was so "loose" and the clutch engagament was just not for me. The Z is way more "precise" and you can just tell after driving the two. Also 0-60 is fast in the vette, but for driving around town it just isnt as fun as a Z IMHO. You floor it then your at 60 and your way over the speed limit already by the time you wanna shift.

But the c6 corvette is an amazing machine and is much more solid than the c5
