Default The closest I've been to a Z06

...was at tonight's First Hawaiian Bank Auto Show in Honolulu, Hawaii!! Got to sit inside a silver Z06-- awesome!

Also, sat inside the 35th Camaro and the Pontiac WS6!!

Got to see the Viper up close for the first time, too...but couldn't go inside cuz the dealers locked the doors.

There was also a Ferrari Modena on display with a poster saying it could go from 0 - 60 in 4.5 sec.

I told my g/f the Z06 can give it a run for it's money...plus it's something even a Joe Schmoe like myself could afford <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I just hope GM resurrects the Camaro very, very soon...that way, if I still can't afford a Vette by the time I'm forty I'll at least be able to buy a Z!

.....The ZO6 give the Modena a run for its money......That is a little bit of an understatement. You know what you see out of the windshield of that Ferrari......The rear end of the Z06!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and with the Z06, you'll still have spare change to spend on extra tires...'specially after fragging that Ferrari's azz <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

The 2002 ZO6s are very fast indead. A freind of mine just bought one and it can out run my cammed and header w/4.10 gears 2000 SS. I was easily taking other vettes with just my gears but this car is a handful.

And the ZO6 styling is distinctive without being in-your-face. Very nice IMHO.
