[QUOTE="Kevinbonds, post: 15956280, member: 190491"] Ive posted something similar in another form, but the cars are so different. I had a C6, and if you ask me it's the best bang for the buck for a plug and play track car. Being in Florida we have several road courses available, and I try to get out as often as I can. As I have gotten older, and after an accident and neck issues I was no longer tracking the car nearly as much. It became a weekend pleasure car, and for that it's terrible. I hated driving it around the city, it was too low and could barely clear a large driveway without scraping. I used to plan my trips and if there were any unknowns I could not take the Corvette. So when the wife got pregnant, we talked and decided that the car wasnt being used and was impractical. So we sold it, and I am very happy with my GT500 The Shelby is perfect for me, it's fast, you can zip around town no problem and clearing driveways and parking lots is easy. The car is quiet, and can be driven long distance without fatigue (wish I had the recaro seats, stock seats suck). So I personally like the GT500 much better for its intended purpose. However nobody can take anything away from the Z06, and for track work it's probably the best out of the box car I have ever driven. Down the road I will probably buy another one, just because its such a solid performer. [/QUOTE]
