I have been following this site for a while as well as being a corvetteforum member for a while. I have always had a love affair with the C6 and now with the LS3 I am lovin it more.

I recently got engaged and will be married at 31 next year on July 3rd. She is aware of my love for the vette but also doesn't approved of it being 45k when we could use that $ in the initial years of the marriage. We both do pretty well and I already have a house to bring the marriage and plenty of cash.

So I am very close to buying a really nice toy and I can't decide if the top dog Z28 will outperform the standard C6 coupe. I had a 30th anniversary Z28 in 1997 and loved that thing. I love the new model too and assuming the top dog and the C6 will be close in price I am torn.

C6 = 436 HP at about 3200 lbs 0-60 in 4.1 12.2 in the qtr
Z28 ~ 550 HP at about 3800 lbs 0-60? qtr mile ? my guess is 4.3 12.3

C6 power to weight would be about .136
Z28 power to weight would be about .144 IF it can stay at 3800 lbs

I think it would be a very close match straight line but the vette would still take in on the track and in the twisties.

What are your thoughts? I love em both argh
