the C6 Z they look pretty mean going down the street. If I could afford it I know the decision I would go. Just have to wait a few years and pic up one some else decides they can't afford 
: The Yellow one was actually in back of me duing the cruise to Hell and it was hard to keep from looking at it. Sorry I didn't get any pics from this point of view.

No bragging, he was a pretty down to earth guy.
He told me he used to be a member of this forum but was bared for some reason..... zippy was his forum name.

I have an 04'Z, a C6 and recently drove an 06'Z. I'll keep all my Vettes because I love them like children 
but make no mistake, the new Z is a real big leap forward. High speed stability is amazing, it soaks up road irregularities much better with no bump steer that seems to be common with the C5 Zs.
