My same comment that I put on your other Z06 Post. I'm there baby! My first Corvette was a1988 Z51 that I purchased in 2002. In 2004 I purchased a 1991 ZR-1. I sold that in 2017 and bought a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V. Well I sold that last week and bought a 2016 Z06 3LZ convertible. My God, what an awesome car, and I didn't have to pay 100k over MSRP. I let the original owner take the depreciation. It is Daytona Sunrise Orange Metallic with 39,225 miles on it. I love it!

Ah, the Arctic White Corvette C7 Z06 with Adrenaline Red interior, my dream car. It just looks absolutely gorgeous! Perfect balance of a simple, sleek, streamlined aesthetic; with a low, agressive stance to it as well. Nothing too exotic, nothing too excessive, nothing overdone. I honestly don't care too much about performance as I don't really plan on driving fast, and I most likely will be caught in traffic anyway, but hey, if I can have supercar performance for 60 grand; you best bet I'm taking it!

I've had lots of cars, and driven damn near everything under $1M. I love the 2019 Z06 I own now. It's an incredible value. I recently drove a 2021 F8 Tributo and can tell you, in a match of sheer acceleration and speed, it's no contest. A few minutes later, I drove a 2020 Aventador. I'm sure it's faster with the AWD and all, and I believe the specs, but frankly driving it, it didn't feel any quicker/faster. And at over 6x the cost, it's no contest.
