(you're going to come back at me with same argument...that it wasnt same day or same driver...thats over 30 seconds...)

Guess that F430 interior is worth the price
Lol, I think you checkmate yourself.

You're taking too much pride in the ZO6 and failed to see its problems. The cost of ownership between a ZO6 is similar to an M3, new or used. Anyone (with decent mechanical skills) can make a car go fast by putting a high HP engine in a plastic chassis which is common sense. The problem is poor execution. The body gaps, cheap interior materials, body trims, low tech engineering, road noise, flimsy panels just make the car aweful to live with. Yes, the Vette is quicker at the track (if the driver can keep it on pavement) but the M3 is overall the better car. I thought that's why ZO6 owners are lurking around here so much.
