Saw an 06 Z06 on the road today!
I was cruising thru town this afternoon in my VR Z51 6 speed and coming the other way was a VR Z06. Passed me headed in the other direction. The scoop in the nose gave it away and as it passed by I noticed the flare in the rear wheel opening. I live 20 min. from Motown so it's not unusual to see cars with a manufacturer's plate before the public get their shot at one. My neighbor down the street used to bring home a different color Ford GT each week for evaluation. Too bad I'm not a car thief!

I think I'll let you have your 5 all by yourself.

I hope an aftermarket company comes up with a removable top option for the Z06. This is the only feature that bothers me. I like my coupe a whole bunch and have the top off all weekend, every weekend.

Don't sweat it, dude. It's just part of the ever growing A-hole contingent that is becoming more and more common on this forum. I'm sure a lot of the keyboard snipers(as you referred to them) wouldn't have the ***** to make any of these comments to your face if they saw you in person.
