Yeah, there are quite a few cars well under half a million that could take down a Z06 stock for stock. However, they're all at least 3x the price, and many of them don't have near the comfort/convenience of a Z06. It seems to be the closest thing to a perfect recipe for a street driven sports car we may ever see. Power, performance, drivability, reliability, cost....it may be out of many people's price range, but what you pay for what you get is absolutely phenominal.

The Zo6 is amazing.....I'm wondering what the C7Z06 is going to have? Probably 550-600bhp....I'm already thinking trade in and that car is at least four more years away...lol
GM just leaked pictures and specs today of the ZR1 engine. 6.2L supercharged LS9 in the neighborhood of 600-650bhp. The Z06 will probably remain the LS7.

That time doesnt count! Its Ranger! (He makes Evan Smith look like an also ran).
A stock GT would be cutting 1.80 60's and 12.9 1/4 with that man at the wheel.
Not to mention how light he is!
+1billion!!!!

geeze he could make a termi run 12.3 and a shelby run 12.0!! Mabye not but you get the idea lol but off course those cars are not good enough for the great Ranger....

i need to pay him to teach me to drive!!! anyone wanna come with [8D]

For the price it should run 9's and **** crude oil, just my opinion though.
Nothing in its price range can touch it. You have to spend multiple 6 figures on a Saleen S7 or an Enzo to take it down. I think the Viper comes pretty close though.
A little off the subject: I think it's amazing that all the aforementioned cars are naturally aspirated (although the Saleen has a badass boosted version).
I dont think you have to spend quite that much. You could get a 599GTB or a SLR. Stock for stock they will beat the Z06. But your right, they all cost much much more than the Z06. And as we know from Mr Rogors, its nothing a few mods to the Z06 cant fix.

How does the Z06 compare with the askari KZ1?
Funny enough,the zo6 is faster than an SLR 0-60 and right with the 599 GTB. Both of those cars would run dead even with the zo6 up into the triple digits and really only surpass the vette damn near 200mph when the zo6 fails to push itself beyond 198. Really in any kind of street race 0-160mph the zo6, SLR, and GTB would be a driver's race for the most part. Of course I'd take the ferrari over the vette any day. The GUMPERT APOLLO @ only $150,000 though would totally spank a zo6.

Z06's A pretty impressive. I wonder if the old c5 z06 was as good back then as the c6 z06 is now. Im thinking of selling my s197 for a c5 z06.
