Talk me out of a Z06 please

Of course they are going to low-ball the hell out of a Japanese sports car. Personally, I wouldn't give them two cents for a Vette, ZO6 or not. The back

Of course they are going to low-ball the hell out of a Japanese sports car. Personally, I wouldn't give them two cents for a Vette, ZO6 or not. The back ends of them are ugly, and the interior is absolutely hideous with very cheap looking materials used.

If I had a new ZO6 and base Z sitting in front of me, free for me to take, I'd gladly take the base Z every time. It's a hell of a lot better looking car inside and out.

Again, all of this just my opinion, however many agree with me.

Again, personal preference.

To me, the Vettes are hideous in the rear and inside, and the Z is the exact opposite. They're good looking all the way around. So why would I pick the Vette over the Z? I don't pick a car strictly for performance. If that were the case, I'd be driving around in a new Mustang GT right now instead of the Z. But again, that car is good looking on the outside but cheap and ugly on the inside, hence why I chose the base Z.

And I chose the base Z over the Sport because I didn't want the 19" Rays, the rear spoiler, or any of that electronic noise cancelling/piped in exhaust sound crap that comes standard on the Sport. Oh, and I certainly don't need a tiny display that tells me what gear I'm in. That's just totally useless. I'm not going to pay for stuff I don't want. The only thing the Sport has going for it is the larger brakes and VLSD. But for $500 I can have just as good brakes if not better with slotted rotors and carbon pads. The diff (if I decide to upgrade it), another $1500 installed.

Again, it's all personal preference.

If someone wants to be a Vette or a Mustang, go right ahead. It's your money and what you like. No problem with that at all.
