I think he meant supercar-like performance. Which you do get with the Z06.

From my OP...

What I discovered:

Power is awesome. Power is nice. EVERYONE should own a Supercar (or for those of you who want to be nit-picky, a car with supercar performance in every aspect) at SOME point in their lives if it is financially practical. It's a blast and I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Reading. You need to go forth and teach it to others!

A z06 is a supercar, many car journos have referred to it as such.

The supercar definition is open to interpretation. Some believe it is based on a performance standard. Others believe it's a combination of performance + exclusivity. And by exclusivity I mean high barriers to entry. Limited production numbers, prestigious brand name, and high cost...

If you go by performance alone, the Z06 is definitely a supercar.

But if you factor in the other bits that you get with a Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Bugatti, etc... it isn't.
