Fully Built C5Z or Heads/Cam C6Z

[Blades]

C6Z.. In the long run, potentially the last high ci Vette built will hold it's value better. I also like the PCM.. E38 or E67 I think. Then there is NAV and the bit of comfort upgrade that comes with C6Z over C5Z

What's so bad about the LS7?

The only C5 Z06 that I would even consider and it would have to be pretty much stock is the 2004 C5R commemorative since it has the carbon fiber hood and only a little over 2000 made.

Valve issues that tend to get blown out of proportion, but are an issue nonetheless

The blown LS3 ain't a bad route...just sayin'

It’s still an issue, and to tell someone who is inexperienced with the platform ‘nothing is wrong’ is inaccurate.

Been eyeing those lately, price has dropped dramatically the past couple years

I said nothing is "so bad" not that there are no known issues. Context...

For me it would be the C6 hands down. I think they're the best looking Corvette to date, but we all know styling a subjective. But the C6 is a better all-around car and will hold its value longer. also, if you plan on keeping the car a while I would assume you're going to mod it anyways so for me I think I'd end up happier in the C6 from that aspect too. Plus like everyone else said $35 K is a shitload for a C5.
