GM releases Z06 pricing - $65,000

elim · 06-13-2005, 03:20 PM

Right around where I thought. Yessssssssss.

Braves299 · 06-13-2005, 03:21 PM

Nice! Better than a Viper and for 35K less!

Panacea · 06-13-2005, 04:40 PM

I think they said 1/4 is suppose to be in the 11.5 sec. range.

ViperGTSR · 06-13-2005, 04:41 PM

35k less? since when are vipers 100 grand?

AMRAAM4 · 06-13-2005, 05:20 PM

what in the fock would you need heated seats for in a 505HP rear wheel drive supercar? If you need them...you are a focking retard for other obvious reasons.

It's pretty God damn sad that there will be a ton of old farts driving this car NOT like it should be...or worse yet, let the thing sit in their garage.

well, it can get cold enough to enjoy the comfort of seat heaters here in Texas. Also the winters allow it to be driven year round....

Rather have the Viper.....that's all I'm going to say.

jake3217 · 06-13-2005, 08:09 PM

85,000 - 65,000 = 20,000, hooray for math

mr_eh · 06-13-2005, 08:11 PM

i'd take the z06 only because you're less likely to see one of these on the roads then a viper any time soon

****ing gm.... the owner of the countries largest corvette dealer said to my dad

"it used to be dads taking their kids to buy corvettes, now its kids taking their dads"

cause no one can afford these cars anymore...

Ummm OK? I guess you win this one guy. Even so, 20 ****ing thousand dollars is a big difference, especially when the Z06 will out perform the Viper in most scenerios.

Face it, the Vette is an old man car. Don't get me wrong, the Viper is too....but I know plenty of younger guys rolling around in Vipers.

GregFarz78 · 06-14-2005, 05:35 AM

It will be interesting to see Fords response (ie: cobra) or when the skyline comes over here it will be right in that price range too

I think the whole thing about the Vette' being an old mans car is SO old itself.....hell the average Ferrari buyer is 50+ years old......I mean how many young people can afford a vette plus insurance and all. It's like harleys and vacation homes......wait till youve earned it and can actaully afford it.
Young people that drive stuff like Vipers and all are SO set on image that of course they arent gonna drive a vette......then again, most of these people dont understand the "automatic millionaire" concept so most wont be able to retire comfortably...but theyll look good not doing it.

65K? That's IT?

Looks like I am headed down to the Chevy dealer to trade my Cavalier straight across, keys for keys, tittle for tittle.

Ant · 06-14-2005, 02:56 PM

tittle?

this car is a beast, especially for the money. hopefully everything on this car will work, and we won't have a CTS-V scenario.

bigbenSC · 06-14-2005, 03:13 PM

Great deal IMO, I was thinking it would be 10 grand more!

The Viper can lick my nuts. Who the fock wants to drive around in a car that looks like a focking clown show?

ViperGTSR · 06-14-2005, 03:38 PM

thems fightin words there!

06-14-2005, 04:20 PM

perosnally i still think the viper looks like a miata...but on roids. this is a pretty sweet car. lets just hope the mfr performance ratings are what the mags and consumers get.
