BrianZ06 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 She's gone:( Now the search starts for a new toy:) Most likely an 02-04 Z06 but I have not ruled out a base model,6speed C6 with the Z51 package and do a cam upgrade. I owned that WS6 for almost 4 years that was a record for me. Anyone know of a clean one let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianZ06 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 still hatin on the 01' Zs huh? the insurance is cheeper for me since its a lower hp year. I'm not hatin on them to much. I have thought about. I know the differance is little to none. Trying to stay under 25k,and their is a lot to choose from for that price. black is my first choice after that it just depends on condition,mods,and milage. Under 30,000 miles is a big plus.Cam and head package is what I'm realy looking for already done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The yellow one is also nice. Big plus with the upgraded tranny. I might see what cam he is running it it. I'm picturing the yellow one with black powder coated wheels. Easy fix. I'm not into chrome wheels. I can see this is not going to be easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOPR Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 C6 Z51 for sure. It's a C6! I understand its probably a lot more expensive, but if you're able and willing to spend that much go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianZ06 Posted May 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Ebay has a 06 C6 Z51 6 speed,black with comp gray wheels for 28k or best offer. 26k might buy it. C5 Z06 vs C6 Z51 , this will make me think a little harder about a C5 Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C5 Z06 vs C6 Z51 , this will make me think a little harder about a C5 Z. the c5z will still pull it on the track (road corse and drag strip) search threads about people trading there c6 for a c5z because the handling isn't what the c5z is. mostly feed back from the brakes and steering. if he'll take 26 then jump on it. looks its a toss up, i love the way the c6 looks but i love my hard top way more. its just something you don't see near as much as a coupe. now if they made a FRC in the C6 that would be tits.

I'm surprised the C5z is quicker around the track but i don't doubt it. Do these not-so-good brakes on the C6 include the Z51 as well? I would think that overall as much as i like the C5, any C6 is probably in better condition overall and less likely to have any issues. not mention its a C6!

AJ Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 yes, its not a brake issue its just how the car is designed to be a smoother ride. getting in a C6 and then getting in a C5Z is like going from a caddy to a race car they feel that much different. brian really needs to drive both and pick from there. and then think about what he wants to do with the car. 05 and IIRC some earily 06 cars had the weak rear diff that is prone to brakeing with alot of power at the drag strip. as is the 01 and 02 cars.
