Raw is not a bad thing, it's a good thing in a sports car. The C7 kind of drives it's self in a way with all the traction control systems and steering adjustments. The C5 Z06 allows the driver to feel more like they are controlling the car instead of a computer. I like a sports car to have that Raw effect!
To put in another way, a phrase is that it's a "driver's car".

After I blew up my C3's engine on the track, I looked around for a track car to spare my C3 further pain.
I was thinking of a cheap C4 available locally, but the track president suggested the C5 because it was a better, more advanced car to chase my C7 loving wife around the track. I don't regret the decision!

I love my modded 03 z06. black on black combo with 30k miles in mint condition. iforged rims and michelin pilot sport tires it rides like a dream. it is a drivers car and I feel very connected to the road. I have a leather steering wheel, removed stock unit, and upgraded brakes and ls7 clutch etc... makes 450 rwhp and I am adding a couple of pieces to put it at 470rwhp. corsa exhaust with kooks headers sing at higher rpms.. my best Corvette I have ever owned. I have had 8 of them. I wont be selling this car.. ever.
Congrats! I sold my C5Z several years back and have regretted the decision ever since. Went on to buy a Z51 C6 and I just didn't like it as much. It felt heavier and just all around less nimble. I bought another C5Z last month with 17K miles! Not letting this one go!!
.......and people ask me all the time why I haven't upgraded to a C7. I always tell them it's not an upgrade. Plus I don't really like them. When GM released the Z06, they hit a bullseye. At 156,000 miles it's still such a great car.
