does anyone really actually need a ZO6 or any corvette??? Hell no, it’s a want and I say if a man can afford it and wants one then sic-em. Don’t believe all the BS you read on here, you can get a ZO6 at msrp. If that’s what you really want don’t let none of the negative Nellie’s tell you what you can’t do. A man told me long ago, if you think you can’t you cant!

I have an opportunity to pick up a new 2024 Z51 Stingray at MSRP it’s ready to go. I’m on the fence and wondering where the market will be in two years. I’m thinking major rebates on these cars. Any thoughts?
If you can get it now and it's what you want, then get it now or you may "have" to wait two years when you finally decide, especially if you have to order it.

This guy interjects comparisons with the Stingray throughout his Z06 review for street driving, not track, so it's more relevant. Though the review isn't focused on comparing the two, his comments in aggregate add up to more insight than I've seen from any comparison video. Very measured and void of exaggerations/hyperbole.
