For a moment, I thought you are talking about the New Gen Vette...

He is. The C6 is the current and newest body style. The C7 is only talk at the moment.

While I appreciate the performance aspect of the Z06, there's way too many nice cars and exotics around here to make me do a double take a Z06.

Default Do you mean R6?

A Yamaha R6? Why not go for an R1?

i wish i had the money to throw around on exotics 5 times the price that perform like teh z06, then i probably would never be on this board talking about a lexus in the first place i would have a 5 million dollar house and driving a Porsche GT

Maybe if you mentioned that the pic you posted (of a bike) was a link to the vid tributing the Z06, then members wouldn't be confused.

I'd probably post just as much, but probably more often at ferrarichat.

I own a C6 and I would have to agree. The car is a beast, but I think it actually looks no better than the base C6. The widebody rear and rims are great, but the hood and side scoops don't look that nice, so they're about equal. The C6 is a beautiful car, but it takes a Ferrari, Aston, Lambo, etc. to make me do a double take. C6s, 911s, Mercedes SLs, etc. aren't really that impressive since they're (relatively) common
