Next? My first 'Vette will be a Z06. I have heard that they make two other models though. :)

Already have the best Vette, a 2002 Z06, and don't plan on getting another one. However, I might install one of them superchargers when I start feeling like my car is too weak. ;)

I have an 02 Z06. Hmm what more could I want? Actually the next vette I buy will be a coupe or hardtop from 63 -66. It was a 63 convertible that first sparked my love for corvettes. Those cars are awesome. But if I was in the market for another C5 it would be a Z06..

If it were happening this year, the answer would be a Millenium Yellow Z06, no doubt. BUT it will NOT be this year so it's hard to tell. I'll enjoy my 02 EB coupe for quite some time. In a few years, it will be interesting to see what Corvette has to offer by the time I AM ready to get another one! :)

I'll wait and see... I have a really short attention span with cars. My next toy may be a Porsche 911 derivative (another favorite of mine), who knows. One reason I got the '02 ZO6 when I did, was I am anticipating that in the 3rd year (2007) or so of the C6, they will introduce something so far beyond anything they are exposing now, that I won't be able to resist. This way I won't be so far upside down on the '02 to make the trade. I'm also figuring that this new configuration will include something on the order of 500hp or better, maybe even more cylinders (the old V12 rumor finally coming true?), who knows. Best bet is to drive the ZO6 for all its worth and prepare to step up when the time comes... Can't commit to anything now.
I am also keeping my fingers crossed that the C6 re-body includes shortening the extreme front overhang and road-grader spolier design of the C5. I'd like to see a more conventional grill facia and shorter front end. I am already getting a little tired of scraping over anything thicker than a paint stripe... of course, I won't even consider raising the car back up to the top of its adjusters, the handling is just tooo sweeeeet!

Replace my coupe with another (Anniv. Edition). Keep the Z06 as well - the thing ROCKs, but we need at least one car for top-off cruising in SoCal. Will get the 6-speed this time though!

With the Z06, Chevrolet has definately made me a believer. For my next Vette, the only question for me will be the color...
