Grand Sport or ZO6, which one sounds better?
Which do you think sounds better the ZO6 or the Grand Sport? Looking for opinions on the sound volume and quality both inside the car and from outside. If you reply and own either one please say so. I promise I will only discount owner bias a little bit.

I own neither, I'm just a lowly Z51 owner, but have heard, and driven all 4 variants.
I prefer the sound of 650 horses over 460.

Z06 all the way.

Z06 all the way, as I own a Z06, but I have friends that have a C7 GS & a Z06, and they all say the Z06 has a totally different & far more pleasing rumble. 650HP does the job.

If you like a LOUDER car then the Z without question. Music to my ears!

night & day, the Z is not significantly louder inside the cabin, but definitely outside, biggest difference is 650 versus 460HP,
had a supercharged stingray then upgraded to the Z.

sound better is a personal choice. I had a C6 with a Borla exhaust I loved how it sounded but I have to admit on long rides it got old quick!
I currently have a GS C7 and love the fact I can turn it down and still have a conversation in the car without a problem or put it in sport mode and let it rumble. I have not heard a c7 Z06 up close but given a choice if money wasn't a concern I would always go with more power!

I too own the lowly base Stingray with Z51 option.
Z06, with an extra 190 HP, yeah it will sound the best of all current models.
