Default Regarding acceleration

I was curious. I never owned a C-5 but I rented one for 3 days when I got married. It was incredible and drove like a dream. Waiting to get a C-6 or Z06 in a year or so but was curious as to how the acceleration and handling improved over the awesome C-5 by anyone who has owned both. Thanks.

I've owned 5 C5's and now the C6. Everything about the car has improved including acceleration and handling. If you liked the C5, you will like the C6 even more.

Stay tuned for reports on the C6 Z06.
