Corvette - regardless of if Cobra can be made faster cheaper or what not - is states symbol. If you want the fast car thats cheaper to make monstor out of, i say go with Cobra. 600hp~700hp is like few thousands buck worth of mods.
But if you want car that can duke out with some exotics, in term of overall performance - like 0~60, 1/4 mils. handling, lateral G's, 60~0, and shifter thats not 3 miles away from you, that every 16y/o punks are gonna drool over, Z-06 has got to be it.
I understand Cobra is much better handling car then our GT with its IRS. But lets not forget that our basic architechture dates back to 1977 Granada.
Semi-macpherson strut front suspension just not even in same dimension as doublewishbone front and rear suspension, even tho it has leaf spring. Remenber, there is a life past 1320 feet.
I would sooo sell my car for Z-06. Thats IF i can afford its premium for insuance and expensive repair parts just because its for Corvette, and if i can live with the fact its a GM, not Ford.
But since i can't, I have to look for Cobra instead....
Additionally, have you tried getting in and out of a Corvette every day? Its roofline is 47" off the ground, you pretty much need to fall into it.
you mean 4 seats?
+1234 I mean c'mon people.Im gonna have to tell the Cobra nutswingers to please just wake up and realize that a Z06 is 38,808,098,690 times better than a freakin Terminator. Also, they're two completely different cars with 2 different purposes. I say if you can afford it, do it.
The z06 is a sharp, classy car, but I'll stick to my cobra. The vette may hold it's resale value and everything else everyone is saying, but have you ever been stuck to the back of your seat with the blower on a terminator whining while pushing 16psi, slapped third gear and felt your cheeks touch your earlobes? Just one ride in a built (cheaply modded) terminator and you'll forget all about the little blonde stripper and her little red vette...

I agree. I mean, some people like Cobras better and they aren't wrong, but a Z06 is an awesome car.Im gonna have to tell the Cobra nutswingers to please just wake up and realize that a Z06 is 38,808,098,690 times better than a freakin Terminator.

I wouldnt have a car like that sitting in a garage 5 days a week

Both can go fast in a straight line, but a Z06 just everything else better(handling, stopping, history, looks, rareness, gas mileage, curb weight, top speed/aero, 1/4 etc). You can do full bolt-ons to a Cobra, but for the same or even less money you can cam a Z06. Both cars should run about the same in the 1/4 -- but the Z would still do everything else better. Regardless, even if a Cobra was 0.5 seconds quicker in the 1/4 -- would you rather have a Corvette in the driveway or a Mustang -- I like both cars, but if I didn't need a backseat it would be the Z06.
