No because it is a different model!

The OP just wants to feel "specialerer" than the "base" guys because there is only one model now.

Personally I feel specialerer because my license plate says "7 Gears"

I am not high end because my 2LT Z51 Coupe is missing $20,000 in upgrades(I priced out a fully loaded coupe to $79,850). Convertibles? Ballin!

When I used to tell people I had a Z06 they said "what's that?" I always responded a high performance Corvette. The common person has no clue between models.

Well, I am off to photograph the grandson. He is not always as interesting as some subjects I shoot, like the two models yesterday, but he offers his moments also.

Have a great day everyone, whatever car make, model, trim level, and option you have.

ps the Enzo was surpassed by its successor:

I'm telling you that you are comparing the corvette to cars in another league, BRO

Nice ps3 picture btw, also the Enzo is the pinnacle of all ferrari's (its why its named Enzo ) regardless of performance numbers it will never be surpassed.

Again please don't mention true exotics in the same sentence as corvette, its embarrassing.
