both are beautiful. I will say the c7 look is growing on me. especially seeing the c7z. the c6 looks a little wider and lower from the front.

The c7 rear would look great if it had round taillights and lost the rectangular reflectors.

Now you and your c7 friend need to run them heads up from a 50 mph roll? post the results when this happens.

I could've taken him today with air temps in the low 40's, his cup tires were like ice skating.

I like the C7Z front but the rear end sucks.
I just can't swallow it.

Great looking pair. Love them both. After reading some of the performance figures of the C7 Z it does not seem a heck of alot faster than the C6 Z06??? I'm sure once people that know how to drive it get behind the wheel, we will see better times.
