The difference is probably exaggerated since the Z is closest to the camera.

I would agree. Perspective is an odd duck. Specially with wide-angle. As we see with this shot... thanks FPenvy. The internet does give it four inches though. With suspension mods, who knows.

I would like to do a bbq but let's not plan one out so far ahead that everyone changes their mind about going. Ramadan is starting at the end of this month so I won't be able to do it till the beginning of August. We can do the same location we planmed last year, just need to pick a date and have people bring stuff.

I'll volunteer to head to the picnic site early again to hold down our spot again but I don't want to organize it either.

The z06 may be lower than a regular vette stock. Also, the vettes in that pic are angled a bit more, and the vette is a longer car, so that may also contribute.

Still, two vettes and a z equals some fine car porn
