I've owned 6 corvettes, and just sold my 09' Z06.
The Z06 is a violent car, but it also has a dual personality in that it can get nearly 30 mpg and cruise at very high speeds with ease. And it can kill you faster than a cat can lick it's ass. I'm about to buy an M3. I wouldn't really compare the two cars directly. I sold it because it's just too intense for street duty, at least if you're older than 30ish. |

I miss my z06, especially as I prep my f30 328i for track duty at willow springs. I'm already looking into getting a c5 z06 as a dedicated track car. One I won't have payments on and can walk away if I wreck it...well contingent on whether I can walk or not

You sold already? I would've kept it for a while, especially with the amazing MPG's it gets. My E90 M3 is getting 14 and needs gas refills every couple of days. Z06's are amazing though, especially in black with black wheels....
The only thing holding me back from them is the fact that they're really bad in inclement weather and I would DD it. |

I'm going to build up my m6 a little more and get some track time, and then decide whether I want to jump back in a z06. This time, I wouldn't mind one that's already built

Dont get me wrong. I LOVED the car. I was happy with it sitting in the garage. I got a wild hair, posted it up for sale at a price that I was NOT going to budge on...and it sold within 2 days. I could have gotten more out of it, but I did walk away with a profit so...guess I was do after getting my ass handed to me when I sold the E90. My name is Dave and I am a car whore...

I daily drove mine besides the winter. I drove it in 5* weather and with torrential rain, and it NEVER failed me or made me feel as though it was gonna kill me. Proper tires, smart driving is everything. |

Briefly, I thought about a ZL1....locals don't want to deal much, though, and I know I won't lose my ass in the M3. |

IF any car ever looked like an evolution oddity then the vette is it. Reminds me of some extinct species that could not make it because they had something completely wacky about their anatomy. If there was a ranking of the most dickhead looking car by shape .... |
