Got to agree with the above-buy a vert and if it isn't fast enough there is an endless supply of upgrades to put it over the top!

How about a convertible that's faster than a Z06. The best of both worlds.

They will both get the job done. Best way to know is to simply drive an example of each and see which one you really prefer.

I would think overall the Z06 would have a more quiet and comfy feeling interior since its not just a flimsy piece of fabric all around you. Leave the verts for the ladies hehe

How about a ZO6 that's a Targa?

Whatever you decide you're the only it has to satisfy.

That's a decision only You can make. I myself have always thought you should have to shift a Corvette yourself and the top should go down, But that was My decision.

Take your time, drive both, talk to owners, and wait 'till your heart rate goes back to idle before signing on the line.
