Default Hello from NEPA
Hey people! I am not a vette owner yet ,but I am considering purchasing a 02-04 z06 in the near future possibly. I was a previous owner of an S2000.

I haven't driven a z06 yet but would like to soon. Both the z06 and s2000 are still open to me.

What do you guys think?

Welcome to the forum. I would suggest the Z06.

Everybody has an opinion, you will have to make the decision.

Welcome to the Forum The difference between a S2000 and a Z06 is day and night. When you drive the Z you'll see. Good luck .

Welcome to the Corvette Forum. I would predict most folks here would tell you to go with the Z.
