[http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=1369957](http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=1369957) I’m kinda flustered about this. I hope this turns out to be one single incident, and this doesn’t happen to all of them. ☹ ---

ya the Z06 has always been a hardtop, with the slantback style rear window. Nothing to worry about there, advance with the purchase of the Z06 ASAP if you still planned to do it. It’s such an amazing car. ---

Wow… Note to self: don’t drive behind C6 Z06 Vettes… > I mean, dont get me wrong, I love corvettes, but problems like this are unacceptable on a $75K car, you have to agree. Theres a problem when everyone I know says when you own a corvette, these are just things you have to be willing to accept. Electrical gremlins are one thing- I know a guy who has had nothing but problems electrical with his new Viper with 4K miles on it- but a roof flying off the car could have killed someone! ---

read the thread again, they use the same body as the normal c6 which has a targa top cut in it for future use. right now the roofs are just bolted down, but later you can by a top that snaps in to place ---

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever found out about the new Z06, What the hell are they thinking?? Bolting the targa roof in place? God I may have just lost all respect for this car, other than the performance. I knew GM was cheap, but not THAT cheap. Freaking 70k+ car with a targa bolted in place for a so called “roof” :gay: ---
