well for a price of a c6 zo6 you can buy a c5 zo6 and pour money into it to murder the c6
but the c6 is nicer and faster if you want to keep it stock
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 C5Originally Posted by nightracer

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?
/////////////// haxing ///////////////
Yes better suspension, better brakes, Better composites including Carbon Fiber, Better Engine, Just by far MUCh better then the C5Originally Posted by nightracer

C6 Z06 FTMFW!
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.

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.Originally Posted by Big Baller

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.Originally Posted by Boostless

Oh yeah
supra > z06
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.Originally Posted by nightracer
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.

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

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
FUCK B&D COMMUNICATIONS!
I will have both someday and I can drive! So fuck you boys! I have smaller feet!
^^Then you can let me drive the vette when you drive the Supra

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

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.

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.

hahaha they were prob thinking....wtf is this girl on?? good times fa sho
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 groundOriginally Posted by PhAtBoYMr2
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.Originally Posted by GirlieZ

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.Originally Posted by PhAtBoYMr2
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 flyersIf 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
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!!!!!!
