I've only been active here a few months - but it's still sad to see your car go.

Normally I'd say: As a former Z06 owner... you'll miss the Porsche!

But from the videos, looks like you're more into streetracing and drag racing. In which case, I agree - the C6 will be a much better platform to run. (Again, speaking from experience.)

Good luck, have fun!

I will miss the Porsche. I won't miss having to trace down every squeak, rattle, or thud. I'll be back to the marque but, when I do come back it'll be in a p-car that's new enough to not have those problems.

Ok, while the C5 and C6 are IMO the best cars GM has ever built... it's still a GM. You'll be tracking down squeaks, rattles, and definitely thuds soon enough. Been there, done that.

Very easy to overlook squeaks, rattles, and thuds though when you've got 400lbft+ of torque under your right foot though.

This C6 might be OK...no squeaks or rattles...but one thud.
