The C5 Z06 ran with and at times soundly beat it's performance rivals the F360, F360CS, Cobra R, Viper GTS-R, P911TT, GT2 and GT3. Please post any proof that disprove this accurate statement. BTW - what the fuck would you know? You have driven none of those cars, driven against none of them and witnessed no duels between them. I have done a number of the above, so am basing my FACTUAL opinion on personal experience, witnessed accounts and statements by owners of all of the above. The C5 Z06 was on an equal footing with the performance peers of it's day and many times has proven on any day a race could go to any of those cars. :) You are wrong - and many are witnessing your stupid claims to the contrary. So by definition the new car si MORE OF THE SAME. You need to become familiar with popular English sayings if you want to debate in English. The C5 Z06 is an equal to it's peers - so is the C6 Z06.

1st: the car is CHEAPER than it's rivals. You may want to go review the competitors with 500hp. 2nd: the car has been made of fibreglass from day one for a reason - it is the way it is made. But had you ben an auto enthusiast you would have known this. 3rd: Every major production car in existence today has deformable plastic front and rear 15mph bumpers. Again you proudly display your ignorance everytime you click the submit button. Quote:
Then quote the prices of those cars. Next up - speak to all those people who tae their C5 Z06's to track days in the UK and Germany - then ask them where and how their cars fair on the track. You might want to ask some people in the know about this one. The car is the track peer of many of your "sainted" Euro sports cars. In case you don't know their names I will tell you what they are : F360, F360CS, P911TT. GT3 etc etc. Time and time again, the car has proven to be as good as the rest of it's peers. You are basing your opinion and statements on ??? What? Quote:

BTW - what do you drive again? I mean the way you act you would swear you are a millionaire and have five Porkers and a couple F-Cars and 3 Lambos parked outside - and that it is beneath you, as a car enthusiast to appreciate that you don't have to be a rich to have a 0-60 in 4sec, 12s 1/4 mile, 7m56s Nurburgring capable, 60-0 in 105ft, 1G+ slalom capable, 175mph car. Sounds to me like you are a jealous hater - just because you have been raised to believe that to enjoy such performance you need to be of a certain social standing and position in the community and of significant wealth. So I drive a 4 cylinder piss slow zero handling generic Ford Contour just like what you have - but then I can also drive my F360CS, P911TT equivalent Z06 anytime I want. You enjoy your hating envious jealous outlook - I'll just enjoy my ride - and realise it is not the fastest car in the world, but it can sure hold it's own against the rest - in a straight line or on a road course. :) That's the part you hate :) Quote:

To get back on topic - we know for a fact based on price alone, the C6 Z06 is simply more of what the C5 Z06 has been since 2001. :) Add to the price of the C6 Z06 the 7m42s Nurburgring time, suddenly you see that the car is definately the equal of it's peer - in fact, it may just soundly beat some of them. And all this for $65,500 :) Seems liek even mor eof a bargain than the C5 Z06 was ;) -- Now if only they could have done something abuot the looks of the car... I give it 100% for pricing, 100% for performance and only an 85% for looks. :) |
i give it 100% for looks. just one question though - does an engine require more fuel and more air as the engine climbs the rpm range? or is it the same amount of gas and air no matter the rpm. basically im asking if fuel consumption is linear function of rpm or if its exponential. thank you, and have a nice day... 8)

Damn, you're just hopeless, the same attitude when defending your god Bushy boy :roll: And WTF I care what you witnessed, PROOF is what is important here, not what you saw or heard, please take a camera with you next time when a stock vette runs against a stock Euro rival, and it better not be dragracing all the time. I can sense a bitterness in your post that clearly shows you're a jealous cheap ass prick. And about the 'cricket' part, I was reffering to the silence during your childhood anytime you asked your parents something :mrgreen: Anyway, I stand by my opinions and I shall ignore the rest of the crap you wrote :D |

Yes - you are the fanboy - by definitoin - you aimlessly defend stuff you only aspire to take pictures of, let alone drive/ride or own. :P Quote:
What you should do is go and start talking to and asking around about what the GT3. 911 and F360, F360CS etc boys have witnessed when C5 Z06's share the track with them. You may be surprised to find that they will give th car the credit it is due and confirm that it is easily an equal to them on the track - and that as always driver plays a huge roll in the outcome, but that "just because it is not a Eurocar" does not mean it is far more capable than you believe it to be. Grow up kid,. You are wrong. Quote:
That's what differentiates men from kids - youngun.. :P you are still impressed by wealth - good luck to you :) Quote:

You have been proven wrong. You are a wannabe snob and still haven't told us waht super-performing car you daily drive. I mean the way you are defending these cars you would swear I was claiming my car beat your EDO GT2 around the Nurburgring or something. When all I am saying is that I bought a used car for $38,000.00 that is capable of running and gunning with it's performance car peers of the day - as proven by the 7m56s 'Ring time. And in the same vein, the C6 Z06 is more than capable of competing with it's performance car peers - proven after posting a 7m42s 'Ring time. You seem to take offense to this accurate statement - and take even more offense to the fact that some of us are not "impressed" by displays of wealth and oppulance, and are content to get on with our lives. It would seem that you have an aweful lot of growing up to do. :) |

Only a 1000 imported, hmm, that says it all :roll: btw, love the comment "reading by the age of three" LMAO I was reading at the age of 2 and 11 months, try to beat that chump :mrgreen: And I like the 'impressed with rich and famous' BS, nice try, but keep on trying old man :D I am a fan of all sportscars, but I like some brands more than others, it is as simple as that. And I like the Vette, but I stand by mine opinion when saying that the vette is not at the same OVERALL level as its Euro rivals. That's why we ever vette we see isn't stock anymore, 'cause they get their ass kicked on the track by superior cars. :D I wish you the best of luck and fun with your poor mans sports car. Anyway, you're not worth my time, don't like extremists. :wink: |

There is a reason those people imported them to Europe - you have side-stepped that fact. They could have chosen any one iof the Euro-rivals - but didn't. You seem to simply be ignoring that bit of trivia... why not start broadening your horizins and actully speak to people that drive performance cars - not like you, just wank off over them in magazines. You would learn a little bit about the realities of cars and the performance they offer and the enthusiasts who drive them. You are just a punk fan-boy. Everyone of your posts proves it :) Quote:

Overall the car is exactly what the performance peers are. Except price - and you are so hung up on this fact is chaps your nuts. Again you are wrong, and would do well maturing by a few years and, well, just growing up. Quote:
And if you actually did anything besides toss off to magazines you would know that very few F-Cars. P-Car or L-Cars stay stock for long - they get exhausts, tuning tyres etc etc. So again you are wrong. Quote:
It seems you are so in love with wealth-worship that you would rather have no sports car because it's not "from a certian price bracket". And not good enough to pose in. You seem to be the very definition of wannabe poser. :) It seems you might qualify for loser of the week. :) Quote:

I'm not going to read your dumbass comments, so whatever makes you happy chump, is ok with me. :P |

This you have proved with every post you make. |
hmm... what does this have to do with C6 Z06's being 'delivered' ;)anymore??? :roll:
a neighbor brought one home this past weekend... unfortunately, i dont know him yet... hopefully going to fix that soon :wink: |

I can only imagine how the haters will come out of the woodwork once these cars start showing up in customer hands on the street ;) |

i see C6 as a lot better starting point to create car that actually can run with the big dogs. Friend of mine has 05 C6 and it has won a few hearts among real car enthusiasts, that usually love and also drive german cars, m bmws, porsches and stuff. And if the z06 gets type approval over here, i have no doubt that it would be alternative to E90 M3 or 997. The ring times Magnussen has achieved show, that it is not just bang for buck, but at least a decent handler too. Still waiting for some SportAuto testing before i can say anything certain about the car. Supertest is what counts on my opinion, and i am not alone with that opinion among european carfreaks.
Now bowtie, drop some more weight and give us even more grunt and lets chase that cgt.. |
Quote:
The C6 is derived from the C5 which already surpassed the crappy slow E90 M3 and 997 Carrera.. :roll: The car is already lighter and stiffer than everyone in in it's similar performance class. Exactly what more do you "want" to be able to convince you that the previous platform had already met and beaten the eurocrap and has been doing so soundly since July of 2000 when the first 2001 C5 Z06 rolled of the line? The current car runs a 7m42s Nurburgring time and you say "it's almost an M3 competitior?" Hello McFly - the C5 Z already put down, track times and numbers to equal the 360CS and 996TT and in right up there with the GT3 - are you claiming the M3 is in this terrirtory as well? Let's list the vehicles from the 2000 - 2004 time frame that could achieve a 7m56s Nurburg lap time AND click off 12s 1/4 mile, 0-60 in 4s, 60-0 in 105ft and 175mph top end? Please emlighten the unwashed masses? No sir - the Corvette did not suddenly just "come of age" - you have just been asleep at the wheel for 5 years.. :roll: :roll: :? :x BTW - your "friend" is poser wannabe if he thinks the C6 Coupe is "the real sports car" version - it's actually the poofat girly car... heavier, slower and less capable than the outtgoing C5 Z... - you know, like those latte mocha crap things you sip at the coffee shop while admiring the shine on your poser mobiles :P |
