Another GS vs ZO6 which is better thread, too bad we just can't agree that both are great sportscars and move on!

With 190 more hp, I'd hope so.

Now as far as the other 95% of the time they are driven on public roads, we might have a different outcome.

We wonder why the World is in so much turmoil when we can't even get along while we all have something in common with each other! Sad so many feel like they have to justify their purchase. ��

I don't know if y'all are aware of this but friendly competition is healthy, this is also called "male bonding", harmless jabs here and there are good for guys, well at least some of us. Newsflash, this world isn't made up of fairy dust and unicorn farts, we all don't hold hands and sing Koombya (or however that dumb song is spelled). If any of you take offense to this thread then perhaps you should check your man card at the door and ask your wife's permission to post.

It gets old, period.

You have no clue who I am so I will leave the keyboard commando title to you. I need to prove myself to no one.

I simply made an observation. Sorry you didn't like it.

I agree 100% and I can't stand Canadians lol. . Great post


the real world doesn't hand world participation trophies either. When we come up short we try harder. That's what makes or made this country great.

If you think the continuous bickering over which C7 is the best is competition, I'm not sure you know what good competition is.
Grow up!

You know what gets old, people always saying what a great choice someone has made when they removed their Stingray badge or picked out the right set of Lloyds mats or how about adding a Z51 decal on their bumper.....ooooooh, such a post worthy thread those are.

If you can't handle competition then perhaps you need to seek out the protection of your mother's apron and never step foot out into the real world.

I for one enjoy the bantering back and forth it what takes away from the "what color should I get guys?" threads that you find so enjoyable.

You call it bickering I call it debating, I call it seeing facts from both sides, I call it men in a car forum playing one up manship. I don't know what your friends are like, nor do I care but something tells me that the "dudes" that you hang with are more likely to sit around and talk about the finer points of crochet than which model of Corvette is faster on a track. If words on a screen offend you then perhaps you shouldn't click on the thread, just like I don't when people ask which cluster mode we enjoy driving in the most.

Man up!

It's a car enthusiast site!

Again, stop insinuating you know me or remotely know my masculinity, You don't.

I'm looking to buy a Z06 or a GS, I like certain aspects of both (which is why I look at these threads to begin with) so stop with the competition comments. It's not a competition it's a love for fine automobile's and for me to choose which one is right for me.

I'm done arguing with you as this is preciously what my original remarks were. We should be on the same page instead of pointless bickering. Life's to short, enjoy yours as I for sure will enjoy mine!
