Which would you take? Z06 or Ferarri?

[DEV0 E30]

If you are saying I could take a Ferarri and not have to live in it to still eat? Hell yes I would take it over a Z06.

If people are starting to look at these kind of cars and are seriously interested in purchasing one, the sticker price really doesn't make that much difference.

Agreed, and I can't get over the exhaust on a Ferarri, it makes me weak whenever I hear one on the road.

Good point. Lets assume you're referring to Ferrari's 'entry level' car, the F430 coupe with its MSRP is $168K - that's the stripped model with a standard 6-speed manual. If you want the slick F1 sequential gearbox, sport seats and the carbon-fiber disc brake package, plan on shelling out roughly 20% more on top of that price.

The C6 Z06 Vette has very few options (not that it needs any) and its about $75K or so.

So there's an obvious price difference between the two. Heck, with the money you save by opting not to buy the Ferrari you can go out and get two Z06s and still have some change left over. Now there's food for thought.

great.

and at the end of the day, the guy who bought the z06 still has a chevrolet, which is related to the cavalier, impala, and every other shit box they make for passenger cars.

And at the end of the day, the guy who bought the ferrari owns a FERRARI. vettes are nice and ll, but it's no prancing horse. Plus - that 100k gets you likely one of the sweetest sounds you will ever extract from a motor that is not an f1 car.

I will agree that for the money, and in general, the new z06 is insanely bad ass. it looks tight and has super car performance; and it doesn't cost shit relative to what you get.

If people are starting to look at these kind of cars and are seriously interested in purchasing one, the sticker price really doesn't make that much difference.

^ Ahahaha!

I was raised on Corvettes so my choice is obvious. My parents have a '69 Stingray as well as an '03 Z06. The Stingray is for the car club stuff and the Z06 is for the track.

well, i guess this will give me a chance to debut by amazing awsome e30 realated picture

[ldsbeaker]

my eyes!!

p.s. The only Ferraris allowed in my garage are the V12 kind. That is all.

Ill take the Z over just about any Ferrari. Has anybody heard about the mid engine, supercharged, 650hp+ Corvette SS due out in 2008? If the Z can beat cars hundreds of thousands of dollars more, think of what this abomination is going to do. I cant wait to see it.

Who....Tiff Needel in the yellow Vette? He's an ex-F1 driver from Ferrari during the days of Senna. He's hardly a wanna be. Certainly better than Clarkson from Top Gear.

Do you even know what you're talking about?

At a shop I worked at years ago, there was a chick that did the same thing to a supra, and the car was beat. I'll pass.

someone did same thing to a car in maine... to a mazda mx6.

Well if it's coming down to this I'd get a used 360 challenge car and call it a day ;)

[McCoolidge]

I would want the ferrari, sell it, then buy the z06.

Damn it makes that guy look like a wanna be.

to answer the original question, Z06 vette for sure. simple maintenance, much cheaper, more reliable, and in most cases it's faster too.. how can you lose?

They're just too good to choose. Ferrari is fantastic, the Z06 is fantastic. The ferrari looks better and has a better interior, the Z06 will beat it around a track...

I'd get an F355.
