This is something you are going to have to decide for yourself. I would probably choose the 2004, especially if it is a CE Z06 - beautiful cars.

I would not trade my 04 Z-16 for 2 C-6s..I have been on the track with C-6s and I can run circles around them my 04 drives and rides as good as any C-6 . If and only if you want a GM out of the box hot rod the 04 Z is the one .. If want to ride to Starbucks and chill and be cool the C-6 if you want to be the bad boy the Z.

Assuming they are both near mint, I'd rather have a C5 Z06 than an automatic 2007 coupe. If that's the choice.
