After Deployment Dilemma!!!
Hey fellas I need your opinion. I am in the Nvay and going to Afghanistan for a year and when i get back i am either going to put the money i saved in my 02 EB coupe or possibly trading it in on a C6Z. I have studied various posts and I know that the quality, speed, and power are way superior. My question is, for you guys that had one for a while, do you miss the targa top? I know it seems like a silly thing to miss but thats the only thing that is hanging me up. I mean i love everything about the C6Z its just that top is killing me. 
Thanks again for your opinons and I hope to see you all at some cruise-ins when i return!!! Rich

Maybe I will see you there.
I love my targa, and I also plan on picking up a C6 Z eventually. Modifications are always possible. Rembember that.
Good Luck

Yeah but the Z looks alot better to me. But after buying all the body panels, engine mods and brake kit for a reg C6 I bet it comes out to the same price of a Z or even more because you pickup a used C6Z for under 50k now.

Just send it down to the Vette Barn for awhile

There is a local guy and a member on here who cut his C6 Z up and reinforced the frame and put in a targa. Looks very nice
