So who says I am giving it credit? I'm not, just saying that the new model is a more serious contender than the outgoing model.

Again you are wrong.

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.

"We" is the family of Corvette enthusiasts form all over the world - yes - that's right, there are fans of the car and it's history in Europe, Japan, Australia the Middle East etc etc - the family that has the LONGEST history of any single car model production and support. That's correct - The Corvette is the longest continuous produced sports car - PERIOD.

Originally Posted by SPEEDKILLAR - And you are stupid for thinking/wishing that it is on par with its Euro rivals, prizewise yes, but you get what you pay for. And you pay for a car made of plastic and a 20th century engine and a crappy interior PERIOD

A couple things

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.

Name the Euro cars that lap the Nurburgring under 7m42s. Please enlighten us.

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?

I see personal attacks instead of providing counter points. The car is on a par with it's peers. What are you basing your biased opinion on?

I guess again you are needing to study up on the English language if you want to debate in English. The significance of the crickets is that in the dead of night all you hear is crickets chirping - so, had you had half the education you claim to have you would be aware that in literature it is not unusual for an author to use the cricket to signify a period of silent anticipation.

Originally Posted by SPEEDKILLAR - And to end this, yes it is the "greatest bargain" sports car around, but like I said, you get what pay for.

Then why did you say it is not a bargain?

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

Read the above paragraph you wannabe "rich" person. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA -- it seems we got to the root of the issue.... you are impressed by the "rich and famous"

What do you drive again?

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.
