I was recently in a similar boat as you.

I was looking at the base vette though, not a Z06. Annnnd, I ended up in a Porsche. No regrets.

If your budget is approx 100k and you care about warranty.. check out a 981 GT4 Cayman. Not as fast as a Z06 but an amazing track car and the quality all around is above the Chevy, I would go that option. Or wait for the 718 GTS/GT4.

If you don't care about warranty..
1 - 991 Carrera Turbos can be found about the same price as the Z06 and have equal or better performance
2 - 981 Cayman S or GTS, turbo it for ~$10k (TPC racing) and you'll have 450+ crank hp in a mid engine sub 3000 pound car
3 - 981 Cayman base, drop a Carerra S motor in it (BGB motorsports) for again, over 400 crank hp, but no turbo lag in a mid engine 3000 pound car
4 - base C7 vette, supercharge it
