You will find waaaaay more people gawking at your Z06!!! Not that the Hellcat was not cool, but the Z06 will get tons more attention.

I just got a new 2016 SRT Charger leftover along with my 16Z. I have to tell you, the SRT Charger is the perfect Z06 owners four door alternative. Great value and performance and seats five friends and family. Love them both and are a blast to drive for well under $100K each.

I made the switch in November and haven't looked back. 2 very different rides no doubt. Now if I could just figure out why neither the hellcat or my new z06 can't quite hang with my wife's 08 srt charger with a 2.9 Whipple. in a straight line. all stock except for the blower.

You really want to know the difference between these cars. Do the Spring Mountain driving school.

Best $1000 you can spend. When you put a Z06 into the first turn on a track is shocking. Straight line both cars are a beast but a Z06 in a turn is a whole other animal. My max G was 1.39 (which I hit many times over the two days) and the Spring Mountain cars run Super Sports not the stickier Sport Cups.
