In addition, the visibility and usability of the Corvette is compromised versus the Z. Since you use your Z as a DD and you intend on doing the same for the Corvette, I think you might be overall dissatisfied.
I find the C5 and C6 Vette interior to be pretty nice actually. People forget these are sports cars. not luxo cruisers. The interior in a C5 or C6 is better than the 350Z but not as good as the 370Z. I mean whats not to like about:



I actually changed the shifter to a C6 shifter and it dresses it up a bit more too. Can't wait for a touch screen in there though. Maybe for Christmas?

This isn't bad though either:



In some ways I like the Vette interior better.

If you change the head unit it upgrades the vette quite a bit as well. Same goes for the Z. I hate the looks of C6 steering wheels. Well, it's OK....



Heck I actually don't like the looks of a C6 as much as a C5.

I did buy my Z S7 to use as my daily driver because I can drive it a long long time (over 200K mi) without issue and I know a Vette starts needing a lot of care about $150K. Plus a stick in traffic sucks on a daily basis. Plus the width and the large doors on a Vette make it a pain to get in and out of when your in tight parking. Doesn't help when SUV's park the compact spots either.
