Default Decision Time

Hi all,
I've owned a new C5, a new C6 and am currently driving a Lexus IS F. Been to a Bondurant school .

Haven't owned a Z06 because of a knee problem. Now I can have a Z06 with the A8. Should I?

Fortunately, $$ are not an issue. I do not. track my cars, but want to have the best. Should I settle for the Z-51 C7 or will I have buyer's remorse if I do not go for the Z06 3LZ Stage 1 Aero?

Curious minds want to know.

You'll have buyers remorse go for the C7Z A8, just read all the reviews from the forum members that got theirs. I sold my C7 Z51 and waiting for my C7Z A8 which is built and in transit.

Good luck with whatever you decide they are both great vettes.

I would get the z06. It's incredible on every level especially if money is not an issue. When I saw one in real life at the dealer I almost bought it on the spot. My buddy has a 2015 911 turbo S and I would rather have a new Z. Call me crazy I don't care. To me the car is that awesome.
