I'm coming from the other direction. Sold my C6 last summer (it was my third) in anticipation of the C7. Got itchy for a another sports car so I went with a Z this time. Although I miss the sheer power of the Vette, I don't miss it's shortcomings and I find the Z a helluva lot more fun to drive. I've had ten Vettes and three Z's and I'm not sure what my next sports car might be. Usually I'd opt for the Vette, but the next gen NSX, GT-R and Z will be in the running, along with the C7 (unless they really screw it up).
Enjoy your Vette. It's an awesome car. Below are a couple shots of my C6's and an interesting thread on the Corvette forum that addresses this very subject. Obviously, there are insecure tools on all forums. Replaced my z06 - Corvette Forum |

.I took the top of my Corvette today and enjoying the wind and air of an open top. It was awesome until I stop at the gas station and it was $4.07 per gallon for a total of $56.00 to fill the Corvette up-same as the 370z.

Wow Vagas talk about tools. I've owned Vette's before, including a SC 69 vert with 4" side pipes, custom stereo and a 4speed. I love my 370Z vert but hate that I cannot track it. It is why I'm getting a ZL1 Camaro. Don't understand all the bashing. On the Camaro site they where bashing not only my Z but also the GTR. I doubt they had even ever driven them so how can you bash what you don't know about?

You can't take idiots like that guy seriously. I like to mess with them, though. Obviously, he's defined by his car and probably doesn't have much a of life beyond it, so I actually feel a bit sorry for him. |

Well said. If you actually bought a car based on what other people had to say about it, you'd probably never buy one. How many times has someone said something stupid to you about your car or asked you why you didn't get this or that? Too many. **** 'em.
