Drop takes 10 minutes you turn the bolts. If you dont get the nasty Chrome's the comp grey's are a $395 option from Factory and they look bad as*

Porsche interiors when they dont have full leather option look cheap ..I have had both, the Vette I dont care I expect it but for 75k you cant buy a better ride then a Z06.

M6 is a super heavy car that is a GT NOT a sports car, I have a Speed GT sitting in my garage (not mine) and it is a whal to drive. In the 2 door GT class nothing beats the CL Benz.

Right, i stated nothing to the contrary. The statement remains - the M6 is more refined in every aspect, especially the interior.

The Z06 is a great car...don't get me wrong. But you can't tell me those run flats don't provide a "harsh" ride around town. If your going to dd it...I've heard new, non run flat, tires do wonders for the ride.

SS7- I don't have the CS anymore but next time I see my friend Matt I can snap a shot, we have 3 Z06's 2 silver 1 black (mine)

BRIT- course the M6 is more refined but it handles like a pig and the SMG tranny is very so-so I considered one and dont like it, come to think of it anything BMW offers these days it not of interest to me at all

90V - I have no issues honestly car rides perfectly fine, non run flats when you have NO spare is not too bright...one of my friends had tracked his car 2X with them and was better then 95% of the guys at Chin driving heavily modded cars..the again he is quite the driver.

Aww come'on man... Back in my days of Zs we had 4 tires an air compressor, and a can of fix-a-flat from the factory. Talk about roughin it.

Seriously though, I had to use that crap one time... Not fun.
