You get to 60 waaaaayyy too fast in the vette on the street and there's not as much drama that can be had on roads as with the Z. It must've hit 60 well under 4.0 seconds. But I came out of my test drive thinking. Maybe a Z06 as a dedicated track car? The vette was well behaved on the road and it's transitional ability was stupendous. The C7 fit and finish made the Z feel dated. I tested a black vette with red leather. Very nice car. Amazing experience. Getting on the highway Wowed me. That's where the vette took the Z out completely. Especially when I hit the donut exit. Wow... Loads of grip.

For us willing to spend over $70k. There are so many sports car options. Under $70k is starting to lose ground again like the 90's. It's gonna be Miatas and muscle, all over again.
Z is a better street car.....sounds like the FRS/BRZ defense

Personally, I'd rather have the C7 on the street or on the track. Mine will be my DD so I will be driving it quite a bit.

if sky was limit for me, i'd get 3 GTR's: one for DD, second for garage-viewing/showcar, and last one for track purposes only.
Sounds like a fanboy to me

I wanted a GT-R at one point......and then I learned how to drive a manual. Not so much after that
