This is what I consider, the corvette to own. More than enough useable power with all the features of the Z06. I'm sure much lighter without the supercharger. A lower-priced tag than the Z06 doesn't hurt.

I think this one is it boys.... this and hopefully a next gen turbo Z. I don't think I need 650hp. They just seem like unreliable cars IMHO. I have more faith in this LT1. The vette is already a beast at 460hp. N/A parts and a tune would get it up to 540hp. That's plenty of TORQUEY naturally aspirated power to have some serious fun!!!

Unless Nissan can wow with the next gen Z, I think this is my ideal step up from the 370.
Less expensive than the Z06, with what should be a more reliable engine making more balanced levels of power. Now I just hope that GM gives a hefty discount for having the base engine instead of the SC'd V8.
