The Z06's aluminum chassis seems to have a tiny bit of initial flex, then tightens up. For example, when going up a driveway incline on an angle, you feel a small degree of torsional flex, but then it stops. It's tiny, but noticeable. Regardless, the car is certainly capable of handling its power (and more). Mine was fairly rattle-free, too.

Do you ever miss the Z06?
That was my impression of the C6 'vert I rode in, obviously floppier than a Z06, but it was pretty bad. The "initial flex" included 2 points that creaked every time we went over an expansion joint. One near the cowl, and one near the back of the roofline.
