I mean a few young ones like myself may be able to afford a newer Z06, but this is just outrageously priced and don't see too many idiots getting their hands on one. If someone does wreck, it's gonna be by a bitch on her phone, a deer, or someone else causing a wreck...not stupidity.

this is what i was meaning. i hope we dont read about one getting wreck and i am not wishing this, but you know as well as i do it will happen, just like alot of other super cars have ended up as scrap.....

It's going to happen why is everyone so touchy about the subject. If someones crazy to spend 50k over sticker then there is someone crazy enough to drive the car like a maniac and lose control and wreck it.

Already happened. Link includes pic.

People have been interested in crashes since the beginning of time, and sharing information gives both a sense of humility (hopefully) and also lets people learn lessons from the incident.

Good one. There are no dumb topics. There are only dumb people who feel compelled to post their ramod up the @ss opinions. Get over it, there are lots of other things to worry about besides a little mechanical comedy...

I heard 3 Zr1's were totaled in Texas during Hurricane Ike, be careful buying a reconditioned flood car, these cars never the dealers.
