well for a price of a c6 zo6 you can buy a c5 zo6 and pour money into it to murder the c6

Id say the C6 is by far the better of the 2, more power, lighter composites and much better all around, Big improvements over the C5

Yea I figured so but my boy is considering the fact that the C5 costs alot less right now. Doesn't the C6 have a much better suspension design?

Yes better suspension, better brakes, Better composites including Carbon Fiber, Better Engine, Just by far MUCh better then the C5

Its funny how people just have no idea how good the z06 is, first if you have to ask that question then you don't have the skill to drive either of them. A C5 Z06 is a really fast car and they are very reasonable now. Bottom line is its more car than you can handle either way.

No way its gets 1mpg...LOL C'Mon now!! ANY pure sports car with that much power gets shitty mileage when you run it hard, But 1mpg, No.

We've both driven 500whp+ cars before 400hp shouldn't be anything new. He's driven a Viper with 300 shot and I've driven some insane Supras and RX-7s so I think we're more than capable of driving a stock Z06. We're not children.

I actually read it averaged 1mpg on the track in a magazine but can't remember which one it was. I would expect something pretty low when you get on it but hope for something more than that. :)

supra > z06

Brett

Sorry but I find it hard to believe the vette gets 1mpg when at full speed, That means at full speed which is just at 200mph it would only get you about 20 miles cause the tank isnt any bigger then 20 gallons. Think about it

Anyone can drive a car and not wreck it, that's not what I meant by drive. How many driving schools have you done? How many track days have you attended? You do know that those cars were meant to go around a road course right? You do know that there is more to life than the quarter mile.

Wow you drove a viper with a 300shot, and other 500+++hp cars.... DO YOU WANT A MOTHER FUCKING COOKIE. Fucking get real no one here is buying into you're delusions.

You can't be serious.

As someone who has driven both let me assure you that the Supra is not greater than the vette.

I agree, There is no way a Supra will our perform a vette (Especially a Z06) which is by far one of the best production cars in the world. The Supra is nice, dont get me wrong, I love them, But the Vette will bury a Supra in all aspects

PhAtBoYMr2
01-11-2007, 11:45 AM
Yeah i guess it's all preference. Considering the supra is almost a whole decade older than the z06 and people are still comparing them you gotta tip your hat to good ol toyota engineering.

I'm also partial to toyota and browse the supraforums a little too much.....This debate has been beaten up there so much...

THIS THREAD IS RETARDED...ONLY TWO PEOPLE IN HERE HAVE MADE VALID POINT (BRETT AND BALLER). EVERYONE ELSE NEEDS TO EAT ONE.

1 MPG?? GET REAL...YOU ARE A DUMBASS FOR BELEIVING THAT...

AND DUDE WITH 300 SHOT NITROUS VIPER....I WOULD RATHER HAVE HENNESSY PACKAGE THAN NITROUS..I HIGHLY DONT IT WAS A 300 SHOT EITHER

EITHER WAY, RETARDS SHOULDNT HAVE 400 HP CARS

C6 Z06 ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brett
01-11-2007, 11:53 AM
I mean really, How can you think a 10+ year old car based on 10+ year old technology will out perform a C5 or C6 Z06? Like I said, Im not disrepecting the Supra, Because its a bad ass car and was way ahead of its time. But you cant honestly believe the Supra is a better car than a Corvette. Thats as dumb as the car being thought to get 1mpg...lol

Big Baller
01-11-2007, 11:56 AM
Don't get me wrong I loved my Supra, it was an amazing car and I will probally buy another one at some point. Its an awesome highway car, its a cool track car, its really nice on long trips. However its no where near the performer that the c5 is or the c6 for that matter.

I don't know why you lashed out like that. So I don't know shit about the car. I wanted to hear from Corvette owners, not Corvette fans. You should have given correct information and dropped the emotions. Shit is childish.

And for the record he drove a viper with a 300 shot and was able to control it just fine. He did not own the car.

i would agree here, the c6 is nicer to look at, but the ls7 well be more expensive then an ls6 to mod, although i have head stories of just basic bolt ons and cammed/chipped c6 zo6 putting mid 600 to the ground

Yeah thats what I hear plus right out of the box you get a 505hp engine verse the 400hp of the C5 Z06, so you right away get more power along with the better suspension, brakes, etc. The C5 is still bad as hell, but Id pick the C6 anyday, just due to the fact it has the latest technology invested into it.

I just like to have fun. Everyone gets all serious about it. Why have a fast car if you don't want to have fun in it. I don't care about losing. I actually wanted to race Will, but he declined and pushed me off on his friends.

I had never raced my Evo before and Dan told me not to thatnight cuz we had a DF event the next day. I was supposed to be there to hand out flyers :D If I had gotten into trouble the events would have been a bust! So I couldn't call him and ask him how much I could turn up the boost :D He would have cursed me out for racing it when he told me not to...but he ain't my daddy and I'm the boss!!!!!! :lmfao:

yea he was fast! Very cool car indeed. I was running stock boost...so all in all not too bad for me being that I didn't know which MPH to agree to run from. Dan said 30 is not the best for my car that 40 mph would have been better. AND Allen was with me in the car and was like "Ok you can shift a little faster!" I was just chilling sunday style! But no doubt the shit was fast! People always say I have nitrous, too and I don't. That's a compliment tho :)

damn this is funny. on the track i avg about 7.5 mpg in the mountains around 11.5 to 12.5. combined going from marietta to blood mtn spend 4-5 hrs in mountains and back home avg 16.5 to 18.

now the ? about c5 vs. c6 depends on what u want to do. cost vs performance and do u want a stock car or highly modified car? the suspensions are the same on both cars just the new c6 design works better. the c6 was designed in germany the c5 was designed in detroit. plus with the c6 chevy had so much more race testing to date where as the c5 was just starting to get back into racing. either way u cant go wrong it has been my favorite car to date.
