LMAO! nice

42

I know, its sad…but i’m not old

43

z06. GM > ford. This is a no contest.

44

So now that nyspeed has endorsed the aforementioned ZO6 when will you be looking to purchase?

45

Lol. Nothings set in stone. I kinda figured the zo6 > cobra on here. Fact is if I was for all out power I’d stick with the cobra. But I’m more of a handling guy then drag guy. I would definitly get a c6 if it was in the budget. Unfortuanelty it is not.

So anyone here with a zo6 that wants to take me for a spin? :burnout:

46

Is a Z06 really that much cheaper than an early C6?

47

looks like you can get a nice C6 for around 30k

Using your search criteria, it looks like 04 Z06s are still 30-45k?

This will answer the question hands down: http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/256674

50

No contest Z06 for sure

51

Cobra…

Why? I like Fords,i like the Mod motors,i like Superchargers,i like the looks of the Cobra,and i like Mustangs in general.

I still do not understand why people still compair Mustangs to Corvettes.The Mustang is a Pony car,like the Camaro and Firebird/Trans AM.The Corvette is in its own playing field…

52

890rwhp stock shortblock cars are fun.

what do ls1’s die at, somewhere south of 600.

and the ford is 1.1 liters smaller.

53

9 second stock irs/stock shortblock cars are cool too.

54

whats the problem then put a kenny bell setup on yours, and save the rest of the money you would spend on the zo6, on blowing through sets of tires after you have 650 whp ha.

55

I completely agree i dont get why people put them into the same bracketts although the cobra by the numbers is pretty close to a vette in most points even in price.

56

haha. Z06 all the way.

57

its a question of personal choice. you are comparing two diff classes of cars here. imo buy the n/a vette and smoke the s/c stang

58

since most of the people in here haven’t driven both… their opinion means nothing.

I have a couple miles in the Z and a couple thousand in the Cobra.

The money you’ll save on insurance and initial purchase favors the Cobra.
The resale “should” favor the vette. :gotme:

Dollar for dollar… spanking a Z06 with 3 of your buddys in the car is priceless.

59

I like the people think they can say “you’ll be faster with a modded cobra”. You can be as fast as you want in either car if you are modifying it.

60

I bought the Cobra that I have over a Vette because I wanted a back seat. My vote is obviously for the Cobra but you can’t go wrong with either one. I also like the fact that I see at most 1 other Cobra a day in Vegas but I see about 43,000 Vettes.
