The Z06 is the fastest car for the money, bar none, and will absolutely destroy the GT500 in the twisties... mabe the next generation car will lose 800lbs and be competive.


Because they do this to appease and possibly amuse you from time to time.

S2000's are slow. period. Its GT competition, not Mach 1.

And Audi TT's are are Honda Civic territory.... so I'm not impressed with C & D's article...

Now lets say you could get the Z06 and GT500 for msrp (which we all now isn't happening soon)

Z06 Base MSRP, 70k
GT500 Base MSRP, 40k

both 500hp/500tq,
I'd take a few extra pounds to save 30k... wouldent you?


HMMMMM whats the best bang for the buck afterall???

GT500
