I think they are $60k or so. 505hp 7.0L naturally aspirated and about 200lbs heavier then a ZR1. When you figure you can get 2 ZR1s for the price of 1 Ferrari and have the same performance, they're a pretty good deal.
Is the 200 lbs in the engine or does the body/chassis have some light weight parts? As I recall, the C6 Z06 has a lighter weight carbon fiber front clip instead of fiberglass like the C5s.

I would be tempted to buy a new Z28 camaro if they ever come out with it. I would also really like to get a notch back 5.0 mustang too, do a few mods and have a nice track car. And if I could find an old E body mopar but they are so damn hard to find anymore.

There is so much crap that I want its ridiculous, I need a big ass shop!

My list well part of it


1987 Buick Grand National
1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442
1991 GMC Syclone (Marlboro one would be nice but I cant see anyone selling one) or Typhoon but if the Typhoon it must have the Typhoon engine cover not the Syclone one that was on some of the 1992/3 ones.
2006 Hummer H1 Alpha (Duramax).
Just about any Mercedes-Benz Unimog

- Current truck with more mods
- GMC Syclone
- Chevy SSR w/6.0L and 6 speed manual

Not crazy over-valued like the Cuda's and Challengers, extremely unique and "mad-scientist" Chrysler styling of that era. Definitely, a "WTF was that?" car when you see one on the street.

I like! I almost bought one of those when I was in high school, well it had a 318 though but my mom wouldn't co-sign a loan for me lol.
I used to be a mopar or no car type guy back then. :)

In order of preference:

1971 Olds Cutlass 442 W30. Convertible would really put it over the top.

1972 Chevy Monte Carlo (BBC would be cool, but not necessary)

1986 Ford Mustang GT convertible (black-on-black)

I would love a ZO6. I drove an 08 with heads, full exhaust and i healthy tune. It was sick. SS trailblazer would be nice too! Its a family ride. :thumb: My dad has a 70 mach 1 w/351C. Its in pieces but its a tight ride too.

I had my dream truck years ago and sold it cause I was a dumb azz! If there was any truck that I could get it would be my 1990 454SS!! friggen truck was awesome I lowered it a little and put on some 17inch Boyd Coddington ninja wheels, dual flowmaster 40s, the truck was loud as hell and all my neighbors hated it! Its one truck out of many that Ive owned that Ive always regreted selling!
