In dark colors I like the look of the front and 3/4 front. The rear looks terrible, but less terrible in dark colors. Whomever designed the rear should be fired.

Most prefer the grey (top 4 pics), I'll go for dark blue (Bottom pic) as it comes closest to the dark vents, gills and lower rear facia. In some lighting it looks like a match.
Then lower it, wider wheels, delete all the Chrome, delete all logo's paint all the reflectors. I may be able to suffer the look if it proves track durable enough.

Mykimu,

As I posted a few posts before, I went to Chevy dealer near by as they have a white z06 with 300 miles for a very attractive price, I can't say good things about neither one... Car is BEAUTIFUL, interior is a lot better than what I expected with full leather in dark blue, ergonomics are terrible and the at drives like a truck.
Car has plenty of power, but you can't just feel it, engine is not responsive.
Such a weird feeling !
Please let me know what are your thoughts about as you're not a blind owner, and the more I drive other cars more I like 911s old or modern...
Only car than I can say it was great to drive was Rad's 430 Scuderia, and that thing is damn fast.... Like really fast for an NA car.

In other hand I went for a ride in a 2010 turbo S that makes 610whp with 650tq and it was eye opening.
Some of you know me and know that I had really high HP cars In the past, but that car felt and is like a 9 sec daily driver, without being a crappy GTR which I can speak with property by owning one in the near past

Did they drive the thing or just have it behind those damn tensabarriers as if the "crowd" at Laguna is going to vandalize the thing (much less drool on it ...)

At least with a GT3, you were one of several there at any given time and the techs are sentient lifeforms, not to mention being able to talk directly with the individual tech working on your car and have him teach you something about the car rather than talk with anyone at a Ford dealer and have them argue over whether a car was "turbo" (whatever they might mean by that) or actually a supercharger.

When the Ford GT had crested its market fervor and become price negotiable, one of the Ford dealers had one on the showroom floor with the usual $125K mark-up but quickly came down to Earth on price. The thing that killed the deal for me (aside from not fitting "under" the door, was hearing them start the car, rev it cold and look around at each other gleefully. I wasn't even in the showroom at the time, I was waiting in service for my SUV and I heard the commotion of the whining blower and the mercy cries of the valve gear ... I had assumed it was leaving, but no, they shut down as quickly as it was fired up, then closed the vehicle access doors to the showroom and they were done with their fun. Horrific. And a pity, because I was enthusiastic about the car (only later learning that Clarkson had a lot of trouble with his and after some acrimonious dealings with Ford, I think he ended up with an aftermarket upgraded example as a replacement.) I fear the Vette will be much the same problem -- there's simply no credible, trustworthy GM dealer in the Bay Area that I've encountered. They're all manned and managed by the polyester suits, odious colognes and personalities to match.

If I fit in it, I may get lucky with a cool service advisor. I only need to go there for warranty...

I don't hate the design, but it looks like old guys out of touch with younger generations tried to design a car for guys in their 20's and instead missed by a decade and made it for pre-teens.

However I don't like the base C6 either so there is still hope for the Z06 and ZR1
