A big question: C5 Z06 to a 2014 1LE
 

We just bought a V6 2LT for my wife and we really like this car. I've been very impressed with the car and really enjoy driving it. I've like it so much in fact that it has me thinking of selling my 2004 Z06 and buying a new 1LE SS.

So the big question: Would you do it?

If you'd have asked me a month ago I would have said HELL NO! Now I'm not so sure.....

Yes do it, everyone I know that has gotten an 1LE has loved them!!

Sell the 2004 Z06 and get a 2008 Z06. It'll probably be cheaper and much faster than a 1LE. If you want to go new, however, you can't beat the 1LE for the price.

I was goin to say this too! You already got a vette, just trade the C5 for a C6 Z06

Yea im on the boat about upgrading to a C6 Z06 unless u want new and a warranty with it. 1LE is awesome for the money and it seems everyone that owns one has nothing negative to say about it.

I'm in no hurry just something I was considering.

concur w/ trading for a newer Z06. The Camaro is just too heavy(+700 lbs), but almost as fun to drive. Besides, you get alot more waves:D

The only issue I see is value. The C6Z is going to drop as soon as the C7 comes out. No matter what direction the next Camaro is going to take there will still be pretty strong demand for the 1LE because of how GM put it together.

For me, I'd have to say the 1LE. I love the C6Z but there are just too many issues to not have one in warranty unless you plan on upgrading the motor in the near future.

1LEs will depreciate faster(it's just too new, right now), though not as fast as say, a stock SS.
Value's not going to drop as many think, low mileage CZs still command top dollar.
If you're going to track it routinely, then obviously the warranty on a new car is the 'safer' way to go. If you don't mind chasing other CZs on the track..

I'd wish that was the case but there have been issues with the LS7 on cars that havent been tracked at all.

Shoot, I buy most of my cars out of warranty but with a Z06, I'd be very, very hesitant. Thats just me though.

Plus, the C7 with the Z51 package is going to outrun a C6Z.

Get the Z28

:twitch:..ummm, OK...

I think you should go 1le

If you can find a 2008 Z06 cheaper than a 1LE, please point me to it :)
