Why does it upset you so much that a z06 isn't a supercar? If you like the car, enjoy it. The fact that it is a sports car shouldn't make it any less enjoyable.

13 pages and counting. People are getting WAY to hung up on an arbitrary word that has (or should have) nothing to do with how you enjoy your ride.

And also why anyone would believe some anonymous totally unwarranted users comment stating what our cars are or aren't. Like they have some credit in the ability judge...just words...

The insecurity level, in this thread alone, has went dragon ball Z....LMAO

Can't believe how people really want to believe the z06 is a supercar. The ZR1 isn't even that, and it's REALLY CLOSE, but still not a supercar.

And that makes the z06 even further way. That's like lebron james trying to catch michael jordan in championship rings LOL.

You think he's gonna but he's not lol. And i love lebron as a player.

But i know reality. He's not going to catch jordan.

And the Z06 is NOT a damn supercar

I don't buy into your premise that it isn't a supercar. I look at one thing...performance.

Everything else isn't relevant, it's just fodder for the internet forums.

Can it run 200MPH? Yes it can. Game over.

You really have issues about all of this. Take it or leave it, but that car you make fun of just might out run yours, then what would you say? Beat by a 4 door...lol

just because you own it, doesn't mean you can drive it to its capabilities...

You don't have to be a pro driver to know the capabilities of your car and your abilities with it.

Right. Like i said earlier in this thread, "you don't have to be a dentist to be able to see good teeth".

It doesn't take rocket science to really understand the z06 isn't a supercar lol. Hence the whole point to the thread.

People just see the looks, then see it has 650hp. Then boom, "yeah it's a supercar!!"

Doesn't work like that. But i do think it's cute grown men wanna believe their corvette is a supercar lol. Tell that to the ferrari club. They'll laugh in all your faces

You say it doesn't work like that. Many disagree.

Why do you care what a Ferrari owner says? Inferiority complex? You cant afford one, and the Z is as close as you can get?

Ironic you make that statement given all the aimless reasons for other Z owners into making themselves believe their Z is a supercar when it's not LOL. Plain and simple.

Has nothing to do with anything else, all that other stuff is just to get under everyone's skin.

It worked.

But the whole point, since this is a discussion afterall. The Z isn't a supercar. Some may think it is, while others think it's not.

But that doesn't change the truth. And that is, it isn't

Btw, ferrari owners are cool. Now try getting acknowledgement from mclaren owners

You seem to crave approval from car owners who's car you don't even own. Very strange. You can say anything you want, but it's just YOUR opinion.

When did you annoint yourself the messiah of truth? Must be a bitch of a cross for you to bear.

Sometimes the truth hurts.

If a bodybuilder told a fat guy, "hey dude you're fat, you need to lose some pounds". He is wrong?

Maybe he's disrespectful in saying that, but that doesn't mean he's wrong.

If you classify the Z as a supercar, you're grouping the Z along with the REAL SUPERCARS, ferraris, mclaren etc etc.

Supercar performance? Yes absolutely.

But that doesn't mean it's a supercar. Period.

Sometimes people need to just get over it and accept it

Well you can believe anything you want, and you and I will continue to disagree! This is America and you have every right to exercise your right to be wrong, and you are doing exactly that!

Enjoy waxing your supercar.
