They also pull 1.01 g on the skid pad while the C5Z pulls .98 g. They brake from 60-0 in 109ft, same a a gallardo. Guess what you C6Z does it in... almost 120ft. And a Ford GT is a low production Supercar, msrp around 150K. Pretty decent price in my book for being in the top 10 fastest production cars. If they had produced 8000 of them in one year like they did your C6Z the price would have been greatly reduced. As for the GT 500, I don't care for them. 03-04 Cobras own them
    Just did a quick search, feel free to post a link to a site with better numbers or direct same day comparisons with a C5 Z....I'm actually interested in this now. I found a site that had the spec listed as 109ft 60 - 0, and 160ft 70 - 0. The C6 Z is listed as 104ft 60 - 0....but in several magazine tests the numbers were anywhere between 100 - 118 ft. Most being around 108 - 110. Skid pad for the Cobra R is listed as 1.02g. They are impressive numbers, but skid pad and braking numbers don't tell the whole story of how a car handles, nor how fast it is around a track. It still weighed 400lbs more than a C5 Z06, and had 15 less HP (same HP as the 2001 model). The MSRP is listed as 55.8k.

    Edit: Ok, found this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvdUhCvtlsE

    Doesn't have a whole lot of info other than it beat the Cobra R by a second around the track (and the ACR by 2 seconds). The quarter mile speed for the Cobra R really surprised me, 116mph..same as the Z. I didn't post this video because the Corvette won, it's honestly the only one I've found so far lol
