Default Z verses C5 Vert

I have had my 03 Z for about a year and a half. Was wanting a Z or a convertible at the time ... Bought an 04 CE Vert a couple of weeks ago... After driving the Vert for a few days I pulled the Z out and WOW what a difference... Amazing What the extra HP means .... Totally differant cars...

I drive the Z, but my wife and I road trip in the vert. Best of both worlds. Both do pretty well at the track, too.

I went from a 94 coupe auto to a 01 sw mod red Z06. What a difference, though driving my 69 427 is still a hoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
