Thank you everyone! As you say, at least I have not fallen far from the tree.
Would have loved to keep the C5 as well, but budget and space both preclude it. Something tells me I will live, but I am jealous of you guys that have a stable.

Great choice. I have looked at z's recently and they are tempting... Many in yellow, too.
Enjoy the torque

The Z06 seems to be the C6 that many C5 owners would trade for. The rest of the C6 lineup, not so much (except for ZR1
).

Nice. The c6z is one of the very few cars that I would have over mine.
Good upgrade

I don't own a C6 Z06, but I've got quite a bit of seat time in them. It's an unbelievable car.
