I can't DD my c5z.
A C6 is MUCH better for daily driving than a C5, worlds of difference.
C6 is more comfortable, "roomier" and in general, I don't feel claustrophobic all the time. (and yes i'm comparing to non-modified interior C5, not a caged fixed seat monster)

I DD my vette. Not in the sense as you would think though. I have a work truck I commute to work and back home in everyday, just due to the fact that you can not carry tools in a C5Z. I do drive the car everyday when I need to go out after work and also on the weekends. They are very much a comfortable car and fine for daily driving. I drove the car all the way from Huston to Nashville when I bought it and did not experience any discomfort. Ask your mom to let you DD hers for a week or so before you make your decision and your choice will get a bit easier.

nope, only reason I sold the Z was the mortgage company miscalculated my debt to income ratio and said I needed to get rid of it if I want to buy my first house. Well after I let the Z go dirt cheap ($27k in 2005 with 19k miles) they give me a call and say.."oops our mistake, you didn't need to sell your car." Needless to say i was not the happiest person in the world after that phone call. Oh well atleast I'm back in a vette
