I'm tired of the same group constantly bitching about how the new Z sucks, is such a failure, etc. . . IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, DON'T BUY IT. They're nothing but keyboard warriors. "Wahhh, the Z's top speed isn't as fast as [insert $300k ferrari]. . . The Z is such a failure!"

And we all pretty much know who they are. Their posts contribute absolutely nothing to this forum but negativity and bitching. Several of them have been doing it since January 2013 when the C7 was introduced.

Amen to that... nothing but excuses or trash talk... name callings like fanboi, GM employee, etc.

I/we will enjoy driving our C7s while the haters/trolls can just rag on & on & on....

On that note, this tread needs some C7 Z06 pics... I'll start.

Maybe so, but I have a Torch Red Z06 that I took delivery of back in December and I love everything about the car. I also guess that most people are ignorant too because every time I drive the car or park it somewhere people gather around it and take pictures. You won't see that happening with a GTR or Hellcat.

I absolutely love the Z07. Best car I have ever owned, and that includes our ULZ700.

I have yet to go full tilt. Too cold for that here in WI, and have 1350 miles.

Paint is perfect, runs cool as a cucumber (winter here of course), is smooth as glass in Tour mode, quiet as a mouse, but it has a roar when you want it.

The above post by what must be the happiest man on the planet if not the galaxy.

While I'm not quite as happy as df7, love mine.

I love that grey with the standard wheels. Has that understated classy look. Congratulations.

I'll probably pickup a Z06 next year

But the excuses to its possible failures on the track aren't going to get chevy to fix the issues (if they exist).

I understand some people are fine with "it's just a chevy take what you get" but I have more expectations when I drop almost $100k on a toy.

As long as your happy getting your picture taken ,that's great.
What else can you possibly want out of a sports car!
