I go back and forth on whether I think the price is fair or not. On the one hand I see that it's only a few grand more than a loaded GT500. Then I think, but the GT500 is LOADED and the Z/28 is stripped.

Then I think about how much better the car is on a road course, my favorite thing. Then I think that if I did get a GT500 I could do quite well with a spring change, and a brake fluid flush and pad change, and would only be getting the PP and TP in the GT500 thus lowering initial cost.

Then I think about what else is out there for less money but a little more livable day to day. A used C6 Z06 would fit the bill. So would a number of Porsches. Then I remember that you can find used GT3s for up to $20k less.

If I think about it too much my head starts to hurt. I don't know if it's worth it, and since I can't afford one I really don't care. I like that they built it and I just hope to see one come to Summit Point. As the head of the HPDE program, I'll just have to drive it to make sure it's safe for the student!
