Top Speed: 189 mph Braking, 60-0 mph: 110 ft Curb Weight: 3065 lbs Horsepower: 395 bhp @ 8500 rpm 2001 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Top Speed: 171 mph Braking, 60-0 mph: 123 ft Curb Weight: 3130 lbs Horsepower: 385 bhp @ 6000 rpm more hp less, weight means better power to weight, so i don't know how that could be wrong? 13 feet in braking is alot (an enzo does it in 109 ft, so your going to tell em that a vette is as good as braking as an enzo?) and by better racing history i ment the company, the brand, the reason for ferrari road cars, to support its racing.... and i would love to see you head to head test of the 360cs vs zo6, please post them. |
Nice picture in the beginning! that Diablo VT, very nice, thnq man

Well - let's see... Road & Track and AWW were the ONLY clowns that failed the braking test - the drivers failed - not the car. Every other magazine (and owners) struggled to repeat that pathetic distances they got. This is the more accepted and in fact true results of braking tests. Prepare to be owned.. because the Z06 is one of the BEST stoping cars - ever produced.. :) Braking (ft.) CD August 2000 152ft (70 - 0 mph) MT August 2000 106ft (60 - 0 mph) MT November 2000 111ft (60 - 0 mph) RT August 2000 123ft (60 - 0 mph) 212ft (80 - 0 mph) RT January 2001 123ft (60 - 0 mph) AWW December 2000 147ft (60 - 0 mph) AW January 2001 105ft (60 - 0 mph) 188ft (80 - 0 mph) CD February 2001 152ft (70 - 0 mph) MT April 2001 103ft (60 - 0 mph) RT June 2001 123ft (60 - 0 mph) 212ft (80 - 0 mph) MT August 2001 105 (60 - 0 mph) 303 (100 - 0 mph) Having weighed my car ( and other owners - the curb weight is 3050lbs :)) - and it would seem the curb weight everyone throws around for the 360 is the CLAIMED weight from Ferrari - which is a dry weight... :) :lol: and in fact the car weighs in at 3100 odd lbs ;) - which would give the 2001 Z06 the win on power to weight .. :P Nice try though - all I can say is - been there done that. Bring it on :D |

damn nurbrun, i've never seen so many exotics on one day in downtown. Where exactly did you take the pics? Were they around Yonge and Bloor or Bay and Bloor? I'm assuming it was Yorkville.

i still love the 360, but it just doesnt seem to belong in the same catagory as the moniker 'ferrari' on the other hand... if those brutal italians can find a way to make more money then ever before, why not? thats good capitolism :) (and a good way to loose resale value ;) ) |
jeez the best i've seen in mississauga are 355 and 996 turbo, but no pic so i'll STFU now ;).

and the power to waight thing is the claimed weights by the factories, so if your z06 weighs less, mayb the ferrari does too, and even if it weighs more the z06 is 10bhp down on the 360, so it doesn't really make it have a better power to weight. i am still waiting on the 360cs vs. z06 were the z06 wins artical. |
here we go off topic because you just refuse to face the facts that the Ferrari 360 is "not all that" - and in fact si an over-rated over-priced yuppie-fad car.
If the F355 had 10/10 for soul and presence and ability - the 360 barely scores a 2. Quote:
It is rather strange, that not only does R&T get distances 15% off other magazines - they also somehow get the THE SAME DISTANCE for 3 separate tests... while no one else seems to be able to be that consistent or that poor drivers.. And who are these AWW clown - 147ft? That shows either poor driver or poorly prepared maintained car - but more than likely a mis-print and they actually did a 70-0 test. I have easily produced a 115ft stoping distance as measured by a windshield mounted Tazzo device. Not a bad distance for an impromptu test on the street. If you really want to be pedantic and average the numbers - then lets drop the best and worst and average the rest... that still produces a 113ft average vs the 116ft average that includes numbers that appear obviously too high.

Ferrari however do otherwise. They claim the 360 weighs in at 2980 odd lbs.. but all you have to do is search around the web to owner forums where they have weighed their cars and are shocked and horrified to learn their cars weigh closer to 3100 lbs with fuel.. :) That is the reality - don't shoot the messenger - go look for yourself - talk to 360 owners that have had their cars weighed at road race tracks etc. On the other hand, I and many other Z06 owners have had our cars weighed - only to learn the curb weight with fuel is actually closer to 3060lbs.. so again a wash. 2001 hz06 @ 7.9lb/hp vs 360 @ 7.84lb/hp. The story is repeated with the 360CS vs 2002 @ newer Z06's Quote:
Without your pedigree claims, racing heritage claims, limited edition claims, more expensive claims, more exclusive claims... the comparisons show the 360 to be an overpriced average performing car that without the afore mentioned "snob appeal" is really just a run of the mill sporty car in this day and age. :D Reality sucks. Oh and this topic only highlights that while the car has "Starbucks" appeal on the road - it is just too common these days.. :P If I hadn't yet said so - nice pictures.. :lol: |
The corvette sucks its slow it doesnt corner it doesnt have good cup holders and its too cheap and ass common dirty socks in the dry cleaners.
:D |
first off a Z06 isn't that common man I see just as many 360's as Z06's they are fast and they corner and who the fuck takes socks to a dry cleaner you lazy ass.
:wink: :D |
