Although it's off topic, it amazes me that the C6 Z06 does not get the same kind of attention that the Porsche 997 GT three does. Last of the normally aspirated, big displacement V-8's, with a pretty lofty rpm range The prices for 997 GT3 are stupid, but no one seems to care about the Corvette
Go way back to before I was born, I would say the 67 big block corvette coupes are on my bucket list, along with the chrome bumper C3's(preferably a 69 427 coupe )
If you want modern vettes, my ZR1, and 01Z equipped with cartek head/cam etc... Cars were my favorites.

Hey guys thank's appreciate it..
A couple of friend's ACRs that they ordered. We picked them up on the same day. It was exciting and seeing the cars for the first time was unbelievable..
I beat the crap out of my 2010 ACR on the track. It's basically the same frame that's on the new one.The torque , hp is awesome. The car is so reliable, low maintenance. Yes robust is a perfect word for it. I can't imagine when I track the new one. With 45 more hp, and those monster brakes, aero etc..

I even had an all custom LS7 built by TX Speed to put into my 1969 Camaro project, which I hope to finish by March of next year.
But these fanboys on this site seem to think I only drive Vipers.

I'm in the same boat... Saw a used artic white Z with the adrenaline red interior at a MB store last weekend and I fell in love all over again. Loved my 427 Z and will eventually own a C7Z as well. What a beautiful machine!!

I absolutely love the 427 LS7. I enjoyed winding that powerplant out to 7K rpm in my previous Z06.

I don't understand why there are so many viper owners come here to the Z06 forum to dis the Z06.
I assume that because viper sales is so damn low, there is no action on the viper forum. Are they still halting production every few months?
I love all of American muscle cars including ACR and never thought to go talk **** on someone else's forum.

Look, R&T did not feel the need to remove the Stage 3 aero for the Z. They did feel the need to remove it for the ACR. That's all I need to know.

Time to sell both and get a Camry.

Went on a nice long drive down the coast Highway 1 Big Sur. Putting in some break in miles on the car now. Wife loves it too. She likes how comfortable it rides . It's amazing how people go crazy over this car. I have people chasing me down, and trying to take pictures of my car with their phones etc. Complimenting me how bada$$ it is. It's crazy..
Porsche's worst nightmare.

I can put on a Redwings jersey and play hockey but it doesn't make me a pro... you're only as good as you can drive. Most good racers could beat us in a base vette giving us a head start. Keep it cool guys!! :-)
