C6 Z06 lovers thread

I'm an absolute sucker for the C6 Z06, it is quite frankly, IMHO, the best sports car for the money... It shames cars costing twice as much and shows just how good GM engineers are at making the best of an American icon. When I have the income to support one of these and the speeding tickets I'll be getting, I'm most definitely pulling the trigger. In two short years we'll have an even more powerful C6, drooling just thinking about it. In the mean time here are some pics of a rather cool looking C6 Z06...

The Z06 is one evil ride. If I won $10 million in the lottery tommorow, it would be first on my shopping list ahead of any exotic car, or anything else for that matter. Its also a supercar that's low maintenance and durable, unlike a Ferrari, Lamborghini, or Porsche . Amazing.

You have to have some serious skills to pull that off. Which brings me to another point; the Z06 is not a car for novice drivers, because unlike most sports cars today, it is not infinitely adjustable w/ a bunch of gizmos controlling the suspension and what not, not to mention it's only got two wheels transmitting all that power. So you sure as hell better know what you're doing.
