Based on LOOKS ALONE, I love my Coupe (hatchback), with the long sloped rear window
The FRC's dont look as sleek, and I LOVE the removable Targa
If the 80lbs were more of a priority I would have looked into a FRC. But I dont care about those 80lbs, i'd rather keep my removable top. I dont think the top has been on my car but maybe a few days this entire year!

Had I budgeted more money for this car, I would have ended up with a Z06 hands down![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
But as C5's go C5 Z06 > C5 targa > Base C5 FRC

Tough call.
I kinda like the FRC C5's but, personally I would rather have a Targa. I think that sloped rear window with the Targa top off is the classic Corvette look. Especially now with the C6's curvier lines. And, correct me if I'm wrong but, I believe the Corvette was born as a roadster. So, you gotta be able to let the sunshine in.
