Pete and I were talking about that a couple weeks ago too. I wouldn't get rid of the ZR-1 to do it, but I'd love to have a C6 Z06 one day.

Well, you might get most of those cars but I think to get Bob's 385 you would have to pry it loose from his cold dead fingers.

Time travel welcome to the year 2010 Z06 Thread... I would not have the same passion for a new(er) z06. I have a 2010 Camaro SS and love it but it I tend to treat it like a "car". I think I would do the same for the Z06, maybe in 20 years! I'll post an update to this thread then.

No doubt about that Curtis --- The same for getting Jerry to depart with his as well.

The point was if we had all the $$$ for others generations and models one would no doubt be spending $$ on the mod front for the ZR-1.

A Mr. H. 415 with a TP hood and some nice wheels and maybe coil overs, exhaust and a few other goodies (415 gear and U-joint upgrades) and we might have a "Viper Thumper" of our own that even Bob and Jerry would approve of.

I wouldn't buy a new Z06 but Id love to get a nice used 06 model in that lemans blue.

That baby blue one they have now is not a good looking paint in my opinion its a chicks color.

I loved my ZR-1, and I really like my Z06.
Someday, I will have another ZR-1.
But for now, maybe some of you guys who are considering a Z06 just need a picture or two to help you make a decision.

Perhaps as well as my 94 ZR-1, not as a replacement.
There is something truly special about the Z as far as I am concerned.

Does she come with the Z06?


I would like A C6 Z06, but I would also want a removable targa top with the Z06..
