Ladies and Gents,

Coming from a 911C2S,

Today is an emotional day for me. I pick up a Pearl White Z06 3LZ with manual this afternoon and I can said this car worth every cent. I was fortunate to pick this one up at MSRP at Serveco Chevrolet, Waipahu, Hawaii. It is the 2nd Z06 that arrived on the island so far and it is the first Z06 LZ3 on the Island, just fresh of the boat during Memorial weekend. I pick this up at MSRP and here is my initial impression:

Power: this car have some serious power. feels much faster than BMS 14 M6, much faster than the 14 Carrera S, the power actually scare me.

Sounds: The exhaust on track and sport mode is very loud, much louder than Porsche performance exhaust and the rumble V8 sounds just as good, the PSE sounds more refine but not as loud, this is louder than the Jag F type for sure.

Suspension: it feels tight just like the C2S if not tighter and handle better. I took a slalom going downhill today; for reference: 42MPH with M6, 51MPH with C2S, and this, a whooping 59MPH and I feels like I still have room for some more. Magnetic ride comfort is comparable to M6 in soft mode and as hard as GT3 in track mode.

Electronic: much better electronic and modern with many function than M6 and P-car. However, it does not feels luxury like M6 and P.

Overall: I feels like if the M6, the P, and the GTR got together have a gang bang threesome, it will result in this Z06 GTR thrusting power, Porsche-like handling, and M6 comfort in cruising mode.

As for the bike, driving a fast car is one thing but riding a fast bike is a whole different level. "Driving a car is like watching a movie, riding a bike is like you are in it."
