I looked at Z06's before buying my 1LE and the prices ranged from 42K to 52K for the 2006-2007 models. At 39.5K and new it was hard to beat.

Probably not. I like the ride of my SS over any vette I've ever been in, but the Camaro is my driver. If I had the funds for one, I would use it for track duties.

When buying a Z06 the first thing you ask is if the heads have been gone through and dose he have proof of the work being done to the heads . Then you have to ask your self do you have 18k laying around to put back into the car if the motor goes BOOM!

Now if the first two answer are a yes than your good to go. I like the Z06 vet a lot but i would not buy one after see what all the Z06 guys have gone through with there LS7 motor.

Nope, can't trade. Don't fit in ANY corvettes. Try every year at the new car show in Boston, MA. I'm too damn tall, would need modifications to the interior.

IMO they are much less claustrophobic than our 'bunker' viewed Camaros. I still love my SS and need a back seat, though.

I do think C6 ZO6's are cool...and I also HATE having a back seat in my Camaro...but I still don't think I'd make that trade. They're just not the car for me.
