I'm sure they're good, but I'd like to see how they hold up against the others.

not so much. the M6 weighs about 3900 pounds and the z06 weighs about 3100 pounds. even regardless, the z06 is much more performance oriented and will beat it around corners any day. i had the pleasure of sitting in one this weekend and i must say the interior is still leaps and bounds ahead of the chevys though

well, considering all the magazine tests and many tv shows end up asking why anyone would want to pay double for a ferrari that isn't even it's equal in performance, i would say it does jsut fine around the twisties.

I'm sure it's great, but I'd love to see a comparison to the Carrera GT, or a solid auto-cross platform.

and when tested at this one track, it was pullin 1.06 around corners.

I thought I remembered hearing that the C6 Z06 had the second fastest lap time around "the ring" out of any production car.

If you're serious, I'll find one. I can also provide a Ford GT for the test.

your comparison for if it is good or not is pitting a $70k mass production car against a $450k thnly veiled race car? bahhahahahaha

not at all, I'm not saying the car is bad in any way, but if people consider it the greatest car ever, I'd like to see some comparison numbers.

Done by the #1 hatter of all vehicles American. Driven by Stig, beating the Zonda and Ferrari F430 along with other cars at the Top Gear track.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=8px4QuTe1...related&search=
Here wins 5th Gear's Fast Car of the World, beating out teh 599 and 911 Turbo
The Z06 can keep up with cars 4x its price and prestige...but some of us knew that for some time
Lets not also forget my quote in my sig.
