2015 z06
 

Here it is and it's a beast. It broke all the ZR1 records already. This thing is a beast!

-lighter and stiffer chassis. So much more stiff the Z06 now has a removable roof.
-7 speed manual and for the first time a 8 speed auto offered in the Z06
-Supercharged motor that can run in three different modes, 4cyl, NA 8cyl or Supercharger 8cyl modes.

Its a nice car but for $100k there are other cars I would rather have.

Like what for example?

2014 viper

I could see that for you. It's more of a raw drivers car without all the drivers assistance nannies. Viper's are a lot of fun to drive, but they are a handful to drive and can bite you in the ass at any moment. However, 2014 Viper's are a bit more than $100k and the Z06 is supposedly going to be less than.

The new viper has all the nannies if you want them but they can be turned off. I just can't justify spending 100k on a sports car that looks like every other vette on the road. At least with the viper it's a car not seen very often. Same thing I have said about the ZR1. And I'm willing to bet the new Z06 is just over or right at 100k

Here's my decision matrix for the short list of cars I would sell mine for:

1) Ford GT - but good luck finding one for anything near $100K

2) Audi R8 vert - reasonable price but needs the dual hairdryer mod

3) '15 Z06 vert - all new cars are too expensive, this one is closest to being worth the asking price

The Viper is sexy, but it sounds like a dump truck.

Haha nice edit..... And sound is subjective like looks

Theres no test data yet, but I think the z will fuck it up as per stated. But as of now its jus fan boi cheerleading lol

New viper is a ton easier to drive then old one. I hear that the viper motor is severely detuned because of who it's owned by didn't want it to overshadow its other more expensive offerings.

This has always been my argument about the vette. If I want to spend 70k or more I don't want it to look the exact same as the 50k model. That's why I have always preferred the viper in the high end American cars. I know the new z06 is going to be a beast but I just couldn't justify spending that much on a car that looks the same as a car half its price. But I'm also not hitting my midlife crisis yet :nutkick:

lol buy the z07 pck and drive on 4.. Car is def. badass! Yellow is still gay........ Either way, badass car. I will be impressed when I get a chance to run one "and lose" but not be ricer fly by'd by the old guy claiming he won.

Same here. I'm not saying the car won't be a beast but I would hate to spend 100k on a car and everyone that isn't a gear head comes up and says, "nice vette, my grandfather has one just like it"

On the track car is only as fast the driver.
