I like them, I cant afford a C6Z so I am willing to get a base. Can't really afford an LS3 model either....
I dunno... I don't want to have to keep fixing stuff on my car its nickel and diming me to death , and I'm not gonna trade it in for another C5Z. I'm thinking about several different cars right now actually.
Cars I'm considering
G8GXP
335I
C6 Base model
New 5.0
Gen 1 CTS-V Although it would have to be a built one
Get a WS6 convertible and a beater car.

FWIW if you are looking for a car that responds very well to mods, but doesn't lose any comfort look at the 335i's. Its so drastically different compared to any of the other v8 cars in your list. There are some nifty single turbo kits pushing well into the 600whp range while maintaining stock drivablility. It's a great sleeper especially if you keep the stock exhaust that flows really well.
That bastard!

L99s with no stall bolt on and a fairly big cam run 11.5@118 all day.. With traction.
With stalls people are seeing 11.3@119.
Problem with supercharged 5th gens is traction. They are impossibly hard to hook. That's why you see 12 seconds.
You won't find them on the fast list because no one really posts up there anymore but over on c5 there's padre who ran an 11.5 on an stock stall auto. Another guy with a stall ran an 11.3 and tons of 11.4s and 11.5s.
