I think he is trying to say that the car is not as focused on track perf as predessesor but I think he concludes that the other perks in the end are indeed a plus.

Didn't read the article in its entirety, but this is exactly how I feel about the C7Z. I can check all of my wants/needs boxes at a significantly lower price than other cars that also check those boxes. The other thing it has going for it is that it's made in America.

Good article and thanks for posting. The article asserts that the Z06 might lack focus when compared to the C6 line up. However if it does everything exceedingly well then who cares; i.e. : more comfortable and quicker on a track. Time will tell.
