As long as they find a way to shovel in 2 cart bags and a driver and a passenger, people will get over the fact that it isn't FE.

Taking the current FE Corvettes and the fact that they're...

Having owned both, C7 Z06 by a fairly sizable margin. The only plus to the C6 ZR1 was it was more rare. Some care more about that than others.

However, the C6 may have been a tad more comfortable.

FWIW while not the fastest, a gated stick shift F430 was one of the most fun road cars I've ever driven.

If I was looking in the 150k to 200k range though, it would be a 911 GT3. At least there...

The only way it would be close is if the 500 also had a NA flat plane crank IMO. The GT350 is a homerun and it would a coin flip between that and a base model C7.

As long as it has cupholders and a spot for 2 sets of golf clubs, it will be an absolute home run. Imagine 750bhp with actual grip below 100mph. The fact that they've made front engine cars that...

Having had a C6 ZR1 and now a C7 Z06, I wonder if some of the replies in here meant to compare those and not the C6 and C7 Z06. The two Z06s are on different planets.

Agreed. If there was no Duke or 1000XR, it would be a no brainer. It was just anemic in comparison. I felt the same way about the Diavel compared to the VMax.

Nice. Was very close after a Super Duke test ride and Multistrada. The Ducati was kind of disappointing but the Duke was definitely fun! Hell, it would be a great track bike in itself.

Nothing wrong with that.

We just did a modest 250 the other day and I decided to mess around with the data it can track. 2100+ shifts on that ride. Had to triple check the math and it was right.
