I picked up a Black 2014 ZL1 A6 last week and finally found "The" car; well, the car for me anyhow.
I haven't grinned this much since I bought my 03 Cobra (supercharger torque) only this car is better looking (IMO), more comfortable, easier to drive, better handling, and faster.
I have owned more sports cars than I'm willing to admit but here is the short list:
- 2012 Camaro SS M6
- 2011 Mustang GT C/S (wife's car and still own)
- 2010 Corvette Convertible A6
- 2007 BMW 335i
- 2003 Z06
- 2003 Cobra
- 1994 Cobra (Vortech Supercharged)
- 1972 Buick GS
- ...
Part of the reason I've owned so many cars is that I have been looking for the perfect car. I almost bought an 06 GTO because I love the seats and they are a blast to drive but I couldn't get past the average/plain looks.
The Z06 is great at the track but sucks for road trips; which is why I didn't buy a C6 Z06. The BMW is fun, good looking, and comfortable too but to HPFP/Injector/etc. issues are frustrating.
I know the Shelby is faster, and the new Corvette is probably a better "all around" sports car, but I'm happy, because I finally found MY dream car.
