Why buy a Z06?
Hey everyone I'm an automotive design student doing some research for me thesis project (Corvette C9).
I want to ask you guys a few questions regarding your purchase so I can design a kick *** Corvette.
Note: Some of the questions may seem personal so if you feel compelled to answer them you can always PM me.
1) Have you or do you ever plan on tracking the car? If you have how often have you been?
2) Manual or auto?
3) Why a Z06?
4) If you could have any car what would it be and why?
5) What is your age?
6) What is your income? (again this one is optional since it may be very personal)
7) Do you have a family? If so how many members in your immediate family?
8) Is there anything about the Z06 that you wish you could change for the next generation?
Thanks an advance for the input. Hopefully if it is kick *** enough you will see some images of the model on autoblog in a few months time.

You might want to also consult SEMA's data, particularly for their surveys of Corvette owners, which will provide insight into some of those questions. Manufacturers of aftermarket products are particularly interested in who buys these cars and why, so that they can target owners in the aftermarket. Their industry trade group does surveys much like this on a regular basis.

My kids are in their mid and late 40s and (living thousands of miles away) rarely ride in my Z06. But years ago when I occasionally dropped them off to school in my older Corvettes, they wore ear-to-ear grins.

No plans on track use, going to the Ron Fellow school in the spring, thanks GM! Mine is a 7 speed...had a 2012 Grand Sport, wanted the next generation. Think the new Lamborghini Huracan is sweet, but our Z06s beat it! haha.. I am 56 and have two boys, 23 and 25. Both love the car but our son who is 25 lives in Boca Raton Florida, the land of too many rich people who drive Lambos, Ferraris and Bugattis. He thinks the Z is off the charts and the first time he drove it hit 125mph, little ****! Wish I had the front camera option, now available with the 2016. Love this car and will of course be interested in the next one, Zora or whatever its called.
