So what does everyone want make the car out of steel and make it heavy as **** for alot of the whinners can complain how heavy the car is now If you want a light car this is what you get !!! If you ant a heavy car go buy a ford!

I'd still drive it without a roof. Hell I would still drive it with duct tape holding it down on the wet days.

Yeah that's A defect on the new z06 roof's flying off at high speeds. GM even recall the new z06's for that, So that was a smart thing to do I wouldn't want it flying off on the high way and hitting A car like that ferarri.

It was a recall for a reason.

How about we start ripping on some of the Mercedes and BMWs for their recalls? Or while we're at it, let's rip apart the $125,000 Ford GT for its problems.

**** happens guys. GM took care of it. It's just a video of some ignorant ****** playing around with the problem.

The kid who owns that car is a very nice guy. (yes i know him) the headliner was removed by the dealer when they tryed to fix it (because the roof had already come off once so they reglued it untill the recalled part and or adhesive came in from gm) I was comming loose again when he was driving it and he didn't want it to blow off while he was on the road. I think it took Gm over 2 months to get this sorted out for him, (the whole summer) Now that sucks.

guys the fucken roof is made of magnesium n if im correct i did see the guy try to kick it off. so it must not have come off that easily. n if im correct is he not the guy with the vid that he had of him killing a ford gt. looks like the same zo6. as long as gm took care of it **** it cuz it looked like he was still happy with his car. all car manufacturers have issues even the double priced ford gt had issues. just as long as the problem is taken care of **** it!
