The performance it packs per dollar is simply astonishing. yea… i def enjoyed driving it… for the 5 minutes i was behind the wheel, i had a blast… and im about 5’11-6ft… so yea… tight fit, lots of fun… id rather have a c6 z06 though when push came to shove. I think the lack of a clutch option for the gtr ruins it for me instantly ---

I was fortunate enough to drive a brand new z06 this morning… Holy shit. I have driven newmans elise, and that car was a blast, but the vette is soooooooo much meaner… Edit: not to offend anyone, this is just my opinion. The lotus was amazing to drive, but felt petite, like I was wearing a dress or something. I really like the manliness of the corvette. Hairy fucking car… ---
