C6 z06 or c7 stingray which to buy
My friend is looking for a c6 z06 or a stingray he cant choose which one to go with. He's 18 what more will he have a experience with and to mod with. I'm telling him z06 can you guys input some pros and cons which one would you guys rather have and if you have driven both.
He's looking for stock cars he will mod himself consider z06s around 35 stingrays 2lt and up manual are 45k

I think your right he needs to drive both, he has a challenger RT 09. I'm telling him to go with the c6 platform and experience that then in a coupe years. We sell our z06s and buy c7 Zs when we're board of ours. I'll
Just make him test drive both cars. He's to scared to drive mine incase he will crash, it wouldent be awkard.

Stingrays aren't my thing, but unless he wants a convertible with all the electronic bells and whistles including a paddle shifting auto, I'd tell him to go C6Z.

C7 A8 with a centri and headers will kick even a modded C6Z's butt.

He has plenty of times he knows it's fast but he loved the looks of the c7s I convinced I told him Ryan let's experience the c6 Z platform and when c7 Zs hit 40-50k we jump on them and sell ours. I also gave him a little cornering job in the z
he has ridden in mine many times but he thinks a supercharged stingray would be faster prob will. But he chose z06 he's buying this month. I'll make him an account and post many pics on his new car etc.. not only that I have runflats so I spin to about 100mph so there is no torq feel more side ways lol.

It's confirmed he chose z06 sometimes the car scares me with the valve dropping and all these horror stories. I'm switching to a star 3 cam that's more track friendly from matt at gp tuning. I want to be on the reliable side.

With the exception of a TT, they're all autos. Notice the 10.00 flat with just a centri and headers. Don't let your buddy see that or you'll never beat him.

Have fun looking at taillights for the next 52 years.

I'd consider selling mine to someone that would appreciate it for the beast that is. 2009 3LZ Cyber Grey 32,XXX miles (I'll have to check the mileage when I get home) H/C/I/E:
edit: I don't want to sell it anymore after driving it yesterday. I need to drive it more so I don't forget how good this car is.
