That is another reason I questioned the validity of the article and he just got a ticket for careless drive...I call BS on that. You get to go straight to jail for reckless endangerment!

I had the same thought process, but went even further. I have a perfectly good, better looking sports car than the Corvette, so I will just keep my Z and possibly go FI if I ever want to track it.

i'll agree to disagree but no way is the z a better performer than the c7. i like my z but you just can't compare the two honestly

idk about that.

a boosted Z with more HP than a Vette with same maybe even less weight.......could be pretty close.

could always find someone with each and do a test.

i didn't say boosted... i'm talking about a stock z and a stock c7... a boosted z should take care of regular c7 no questions asked lol.

njobe89 · 04-15-2016, 02:57 PM

now a boosted z vs a c7 z06 would be a nice race to see

that was the point being made in the post above yours hence my post.

stock for stock it's not even close. C7 will eat the Z lol 130 more HP and roughly the same weight. toss on the magnetic suspension too.

with bolt ons on our z they don't have that much more but still would beat us lol. i see them brand new for 49k and then slightly used with a couple thousand miles still 49k lol.. i was hoping there would be a used one for a lot less but i guess they aren't that old yet.

I wouldn't waste a penny on a non-Z51 C7 though.

njobe89 · 04-15-2016, 03:12 PM

a used one is doable, but a brand new one i would save up a little more and pull the trigger on a z06

a Z51 3LT at 49k is something you should buy.

for me however it'll be more.

2015 or newer because I want the auto and the 14 tranny is awful. 2015 they added the 8L90 tranny.

also I want CF interior and CF roof with Competition seats.
