However, the C5Z is a very different experience from a C6. I could have bought either and preferred the look and feel of the C5Z.

Common "motor" sense would definitely suggest this. However, I wont be going ***** out with the car. Basically, I would just look into the standard long tubes, intake (if necessary), exhaust components, and a nice cam with out having to get new heads. All in all, I would only be looking for around 420 rwhp or so. That should make the car plent fast for me. I do like the interior of the C6 better. But it drives too sloppy for me. I like the look of the C5Z alot better, and the steering and overall feel of the car is more appealing to me.

Thanks for the great input guys. It appears I have chosen a great web board to gather data on.
