C5Z is raw and fun. I sold my '02 Z06 because at the end of they day, I enjoyed it for the two years I had it, but I don't like the front end of the C5Z all that much. But it's an awesome car.

^ me too.

I like the entire car except the front bumper design. Too bad there's only the Tiger Shark (not my fav) to choose from.

I like the auto so that makes my decision. I do like the rear end of the C5 better and its oval tail lights than the C6. Otherwise, I like the looks of the C6 better.

there is a company that is making the C6Z06 front bumper work on a C5, among other panels! It is on the corvette forum. Looks pretty sweet, imo.

I made this decision before the 2008/LS3 was out, but I don't think it would have swayed me much. The C5Z feels much more raw, racy and involved. The C6 is most definitely the overall better platform, but the C5Z fit me better figuratively and literally.
