i am very pleasantly surprised with the Z06.
-looks much cooler than expected
-build quality excellent
-wet traction very good
-brakes, power handling superb
-interior fine

feels a little different than a P, requires some adjustment.

-cool heads up speedo shows on windsheld, great for speeding thru radar/laser known danger areas
-no key needed, leave in pocket

seats mediocre but no worse than P seats and much better than last z06 seat. will likely go gt3/sparco pro2000/cobra suzuka

basically an NA GT2. very. very wonderful sports car

more to follow when we get dry roads

Congrats it sounds great. Interested to hear your comparison to european sports cars, especially with regard to steering feel. I've always wanted a GT3 but, have been tempted to stop waiting and, buy a C6 Z06 for substantially less money. Probably wouldn't be satisfied though, having always pined for the Porsche.

I was thinking alot about Watt and his Z06. He helped me find one of the best GT3s in the country-He could have bought it easy and he let me have it. But I was thinking about the Corvette and I took the GT3 out tonite and No way do I let it go.

Wouldnt mind 500hp though. BUt I got alot to learn.
