I read the average buy in age for C6 is 53. C4s are now owned by a youger (on average) age. My guess would be those aging C6 owners (read hippies) probably smoked a joint before drivng the course and their times suffered because they were laughing too hard to pay attention.

Seriously though, the younger guys can't pony up for the C6 so it makes sense that the older guys got beat.

I have been taking assertiveness classes but I haven't been feeling better about myself. Maybe I will post on the forum and bash guys' cars to make myself feel better about my 10 dollar an hour job.

I wish you would make up your mind since you recently called it a great car:
And lastly you shouldnt be so hard on yourself when posting:

Yep, I can't afford one; that's why I have two Vettes. When I choose to own a '06 Z06 I will.
