Have two C-5's and presently have no interest in the C-6's. If they square the body away and come up with an improvement in style, perhaps. The C-6 leaves me looking at my C-5 and feeling I have the better car. Have modded both so they reflect my personal likes and at this point don't see moving until possibly a C-7 product comes out.
Both have STS twin turbos and the ZO6 has a nice cam and heads along with the right drive train and suspension parts. Will run right along with most.

I didn't mention the reason for several vettes. I'm into collecting them for the motors. So I have the LS1, LS2 and the LS3. I was going to add the LS7 two years ago and got sidetracked by the Viper.
If I traded which was I was going to do then at some time I would have to get another one to have the LS1.
But, I do like the C5 style more and I'm a nut case for a black car with bright red interior.
So my 02 just has too much standing with me. I did go to trade and found out that I couldn't let it go.

At one time I would of bolted and bought the C-6 Z but now no.
I have a Y2K with a Vortec and it is faster than a Z and it looks
pretty'er (plus I have the Z suspension.)

As much as I love my C5, if the deal was right and I had the money in the budget, I would have probably traded. Would love to own a C6 Z06.

coupe for coupe, if someone likes the c6 z06 styling i'd say go for it.
c5 z06 to c6 z06? no way.
even a frc car can be easily modded for big hp.
c5 frc or c5 z06 > c6 z06.
it's all about the roof.
yes, i know why some will say c6 z06=the greatest.
call it personal preference.
