You enjoy yourself, and again thanx for posting the pictures !!! Definitely. Much less body lean in the corners. Bumps are controlled very well and there isn't a floaty feel like before.

JJkizak Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 What blows my mind is the new ZO6 turning 12.0 at 121 mph in the quarter right out of the showroom. Steel crank, titainium rods and valves, dry sump, aluminum block, aluminum CNC machined heads, magnesium frame, 3120 lbs and God knows what else for 70k. Like Cole Younger says, "It's a wonderment".

oldbuckster Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 The Z0-6 is the finest Corvette built, off the showroom floor...........I'll even go as far as saying, The Greatest American Sportscar ever, Sorry Viper Guys, I'd take a stage 3 Roush Mustang over a Viper.............Old Classic Vette's are nice, but they aren't as fast, and don't handle like the New ones, but they're fun to swap stories about............
