Default Simple Question

Does the Z06's top come off, is it targa? I loved the targa top on my base vette but would like the added power of the Z06. NO targa top is a deal breaker though..

Get the GS and add a few things (SC or H/C/I and full exhaust with tune), then you will have wide body removable targa Corvette with Z06 power or more.
(some may start talking about weight, frame, rigidity for handling, etc... I didn't see any of that being important to OP, so.....)
