    sick of Z06 already !!!

    To say the new C6 Z06 is "Hype" is highly laughable and shows your narrowmindedness. You can HATE the car, say it's an ungly P.O.S. (I'm NOT the biggest fan of the styling) but gieven it's specs you have to give the car props. Like it or not, GM came out swinging. Will it be enough to sway me...

    My Thoughts on SRT-10 Coupe

    91 octane will suffice. No way ANY manufactor today will build a car that isn't 50 state leagal(not speaking in terms of emissions). Even though it's 11:1 the aluminum block and heads will dissipate heat enough to run 91.

    DC-More Coupe changes needed......PLEASE!!!

    Believe it or not, a viper offers a lot of room, compared to Italian exotics. I'm 5/11 and it was a snug fit getting into our Lamborghini, my father is 6'3 and it was damn near impossoble for him to drive that car. If you are over 5'8 any Ferrari, Lambo or Lotus will give you problems. I was...

    05 ZO6 - ?

    I'm NOT about putting down the Viper, hell I'm still trying to find the perfedt B&W GTS. But at the same time I'm not naive to the fact that the new Z06 will be a performer and it it WILL (provided the #'s are correct) beat out ANY production Viper. That's not isnulting the car it's just...

    My Thoughts on SRT-10 Coupe

    Plastic Pig? LOL My Stingray was 700lbs LIGHTER than my Hemi, not counting faster. Most people confuse the performance output of the "Street Hemi" (which came in MOPAR factory cars) vs the "Race Hemi" which were used for the track. Two totally different beast.

    You cant tell me the new SRT-10 isn't hot.... **New PICS**

    Re: You cant tell me the new SRT-10 isn\'t hot.... **New PICS** It doesn't look bad, but it has NOTHING on the GTS IMO.

    Gosh , are we maybe just so passionate we miss what others see?

    If you think they are going to build 30,000 Z06 a year you are dreaming. GM already stated it will be a limited run similar to the ZR1's in the 90's with less than 500 per year like the '93-'5 ZR1. Hell, the C5 Z06's averaged < 7,000/yr and in 2004 made only 5,600. I highly doubt you'll...

    Um that's the 2004 model the C5 Z06. C6 Z06 won't hit the streets until this Summer.

    05 ZO6 - ?

    Becuase That's not what a Viper is all about. The birth of the Viper was a moderen day Shelby Cobra, bare essential, no creature comforts and fast as hell. If you want a smooth ride, better interior trim, traction control, etc. Buy a Corvette. But as it seems now you can have you're cake and...

    NEW COUPE ORDERED, ANYONE ELSE?

    I agree on a couple points a Viper has in NO WAY the build quality of a Ferrari or Porsche. All you have to do is open the door and look inside and see the sea of plastic. Do the same to any 911 or Ferrari and everything is leather. Not trying to take anything away from the snake, just...

    Hp VS HP

    Hp vs HP isn't the issue rather than HP vs weight. The Z06 weighs 250lbs less the the coupe. While the SRT makes 500tq+ it only has a 3.08 final drive whereas the Z06 has 475tq but a much lower 3.45 final drive ratio. So in other words the Z06 makes it's power at higher rpms, with the 3.42's...

    Since I am not too fond of the new SRT-10 coupe...I think I am going to buy

    Re: Since I am not too fond of the new SRT-10 coupe...I think I am going to Nice cars, but slow by todays standards. A 1998 LS1 Camaro would eat it's lunch to atleast 130mph.

    New Z06 will be no fun

    True, but 5lbs of boost is probably possible. Lower compression is only a set of heads away, but I'm sure most owners will opt for the Juice instead.

    So what's dodge's answer???

    Re: So what\'s dodge\'s answer??? Believe it or not there is a lot of Corvette in the C5-R/C6-R. They run stock Z06 trannys, suspension (though higher rated springs) chassis, body panels (once again tweaked). And now they will run the same block, rotating assembly, heads, etc as a stock C6...

    New Z06

    If you have ANY doubts about the strength of the GM 427ci forget it. The Z06 engines will be hand built using the same long block as in the C5-R's that have won Lemans 4-5 times not counting Daytona and Rolex 24hr. If it can take the abuse of Lemans it can handle street use with 400hp less.

    Hoping the new coupe looks like the Comp Coupe? Fugedaboutit

    And a Viper is still a Dodge, big deal. Don't get pissy because GM finally grew a set, let's just hope DC reacts.
