Don't forget the windshield on the Z-06's are much thinner to save weight

of course its an exotic, its been around for over 50 years, has a rich racing history, and is very fast. maybe not to most people but as far as im concerned a 50k + price tag is exotic. i basically have to live in my corvette, cuz i cant hardly afford it.

I think an exotic is more of an expression of cost and exclusivity (not mutually exclusive). The Vette is hardly exclusive as a production car and the $50k tag is the reason why.
