As far as the bank thing. You sure about that?

Like i said. People justify themselves not owning a newer generation (whatever car), because of money.

When you get the money, i guess you'll understand lol.

For now i'll just sit in my nicer interior Z. Looks way better too

When i get the money? lmao you're a clown and im officially done

Clearly you talk out of your ***.. My BMW M4 which was $92,500 will **** on any part of your c7z as far as build quality, interior, brakes, seats, i drive etc...

Some of us live for the thrill of going fast... others buy a RR and cruise so nice try trying to justify paying close to 100k for a chevrolet

Well if i have a C7Z, obviously i could have gotten an M4 lol

Not my cup of tea. Nice try trying to justify your 92k bmw with the better interior, seats, i-drive etc.

IRONIC ISN'T IT??? LOL

I would love to get spanked by a C6Z. Those are cool cars still.

But i'll be slightly behind looking prettier. And sitting in my better interior. Getting more stares from everyone. And not just sausages LOL

Says the guy who's in the C7Z section but has a C6Z, and now is talking about his bmw m4.

It just can't get any more than that.

I like the new z06 from its look and ride, but what if someone beats me with an old z06 then I will be disappointed . I dont mind to modify it but at least if it gets modified it will have high performance.

OP, HCI c6z will cost around $40-$50k which will walk stock c7z and a C7z that can beat the HCI C6z will cost well over $100k after getting upgraded pullies, intake, headers, E85 kit plus a tune and voiding warranty

Allow me to settle this for you two gentlemen. I just love it when the corvette community attacks one another. No other car community does that so eloquently.

Anyway...

Chris, stock for stock, the C7 is a better sports car. That said, its marginal and looks are subjective

Rob, your C7 seats still suck and I hear overheating is a real possibility.

No one gives a **** about the bmw lol

This is a corvette forum. And in this thread it's about the C6Z and the C7Z.

The C7 interior is better than the C6 interior. Period.

My friend has a 2JZ s2000, that will **** on your C6Z. So there's that. And his build was cheaper than your HCI Z.

And a benz has a better interior than a bmw btw LOL

Bmw hasn't changed the layout of their interior for like the past 10 years.

You sound like a 19 year old kid that just got his car, spend all your earnings on your build and now thinks your Z is the fastest car lol.

Lots of cars out there that are faster buddy. I don't care if you have 200rwhp more than my Z.

My car is still a better car than yours

And that 1969 Nova will be a one dimensional car, whereas a C6 Z06 with an E-Force will be quicker than a C7 Z06, and it will still out brake and out corner that one dimensional Nova.

Gee whiz.....I wonder what $65,000 applied to a paid for C6 Z06 would do to both a 1969 Nova and a C7 Z06?

...you have a fondness for shitty Nova's...so it doesn't surprise me that you actually paid someone to take away a C6Z. If you had any credibility, you just lost it...all of it.

Magazine times are for the birds. Here is a better sample.

This is the stupidest thread I have seen in 10+ years on CF. 5 pages of horseshit in response to a thread that smelled like a troll from the get go.

And where are the moderators (Steven Bell???). I thought the F bomb was a banning offense?

not anymore, seems like a few years ago it opened up. you can talk about street racing and post videos of illegal activities now, too.

i understand you c7z guys have to justify what you paid and have to think its a better car but then again youre getting **** on for half the price
No one here needs to justify their purchase...except maybe someone like you...who talks out of their ***.

I've seen a thousand big mouths like you before, with no substance and lots of brainless spew....and my bet is that you're the guy who financed his car to death and can barely afford the gas...

Go play and troll some other forum with ur POS M4...

Sure...buy that C7 ZO6 and when they come out with some thing faster, waste your money and sell the Z and buy that as well. Let's be honest, you want the faster car that will impress your so called friends! Get the C7! However, many us have been down this road. C6 ZO6 over the outdated C5 ZO6, LS3 better than only 405 HP LS6, King of the Hill greatest and fastest Corvette ZR-1 ever, of crap, the C7 ZO6 has 650 HP! This is getting old!

If if you love Corvettes, there is no bad one! I still think a 1975 Corvette is 😎!

The bottom line is buy a car you can live with for a long time. I love both my C5 ZO6 and C6 427 Convertible equally and don't think either one is outdated. Both was the fastest whatever at the time, and the C7 ZO6 will be eclipsed as well! We will have this same BS argument again in a couple of years.

Buy the C7 and be the cool person on the block for a year or two and don't get your feelings hurt at future Coffee and Cars event when no one noticed your car when next greatest come out. GM is doing their job.

Who cares whats the point? Is this ricer logic or something the cheaper makes the better? Is this 1990?

The C7Z is the better car I owned a Z06 H/C modded etc and put 1100 miles on a C7Z no contest imo.

Like most things if its cost buy what fits your budget or wait and save.

As far you bringing up a M4 I've driven those too and think they look marginally better than the new M3 (M cars are getting wee bit bland and meshing together though) love those cars, but performance wise won't touch a C7Z or C6Z.

Baller $92k M4 owner in the house I see.
Congrats on such a big purchase. Just a few thousand more and you'd have hit the 6-figure club.
But you're probably leasing it. And parking it next to your $40k C6 in the assigned parking at the apartment complex.

Do you want to drive in a 2005 chevy malibu that goes fast or a true supercar (c7z). Your choice. Get a 3LZ though, otherwise peasant status resumes 😂.

oh? I dont think your m4 ***** on z06 brakes and especially not a suede 3lz competition seat interior. I've seen those m4 cars before they are slow grand tourers. Not sports cars.
