i dont understand. you talk about trying to hopefulyl save enough to have a fun sports car, and then you talk about how the z06 isn't really that expensive. last time i checked, 60k on a car is expensive. yes they do come more expensive, but that still isn't cheap. yea its a good value i guess.

They are expensive if you listen to the dealership. They steal money from you left and right. I service the car myself these days. Only one I really had to soak was a new fuel pump. ~$400 at the stealership to install. Meh.

Other than that, it's worked like a charm. Warranties and recalls have obviously occurred, but I don't pay, so I don't care.

it's amazing to me the difference between audi and it's VW counterpart cars. audi's (in general) tend to be much more reliable even when built on the same platform and using the same powertrains

My 2001 WS6, which was also a bane. I still remember getting stuck in a traffic-jam in that car, having a dead A/C compressor, and arriving to a job interview (luckily still got the job) wearing a sweat-soaked dress-shirt. Looked like crap.

Hence my fun-car will be new, never modded, and a warranty will solve my issues (so I think).
