Default First time

Today was my First time I sat in a Z06, All I can say is "WOW". I'm glad it was in the showroom so I didn't have to drive it. I'm afraid I would have just brought it home.

its a very irresistable feeling of wanting to drive it all the time.

I'm not understanding how sitting in a Z06 is all that different from sitting in a non-Z06 C6 coupe. Yeah, you have the Z06 logo instead of the flags on the tach (with the 7000 r.p.m. redline), the 100 PSI oil pressure gauge (instead of 80 PSI), Z06-specific seat cosmetics (which you don't see while seated), but that's pretty much all you notice during a "test sit". What "wowed" you?

It must be a Zen thing, just knowing your in a Z06 has your mind doing strange things. Then you wake up to reality.

I agree, Looking down the side of the car in the side mirror and you see the Z06 wide body. Looked really cool to me. My 07 vert doesn't have that filling. But I also like the fill of my vert top.
