Extremely impressive times 8) - I think C&D got the same 0-60 for a Euro 430 but the American 430 is heavier and slower.
The 0-60, 0-100, 0-150 of a Ford GT is 3.6, 8.4, 19.1 - so the Z06 puts it to shade -now thats awesome considering it has 50 hp lesser than the GT. It must be at least 200 lb or more lighter to get such times.
Sure it is not in the same class as the Enzo or CGT or Zonda F but it is pretty darn close and would cost 1/4 - 1/6 as much.
The Z06s (both of them) are objectively as good if not better as cars 2X-3X its price. The only thing going for the Italians and Germans are subjective factors like style, pedigree, quality of handling (not g numbers per se but how it corners).
Considering that C5s are going for USD30K now it would be a great buy for the price of a 2000 Boxster S.
