Against the Base C6, the M/// cars will be very respectable and holds it's own pretty good. Now the Z06 is in a different class and should walk away from the M/// car pretty well. I do find that the M/// cars are eaiser to drive hard on a track comparied to the C6. I'm not an expert driver by no means on a track and found that the M/// car I had was much more forgiving than the C6 when driving hard. My Z4M felt like it was on rails and with a 9k redline, you could push it through the MN6 gears much longer than the C6 MN6. In the end, the advantage of the C6's torque over the M/// car make the difference. They are both a blast to drive!

Because of this thread I went and test drove a Le Mans Blue C5 Z06 today. Might have to get back in one real soon.
