CM Comment about my Z06
I have never run this car anywhere close to what it is capable of doing. Slow in this thing is quick/fast in a "normal" car but...

Last saturday, early in the morning, I took my ten year old nephew for an E ride on a straight 1/4 mile freeway access road.

This thing is QUICK and FAST!

It is good thing I started in 2003 and 2004 C5s, graduated to a 2007 C6 coupe and now a 2009 Z06.

It is a wonderful car.

In all honesty, it doesn't "feel" that much faster than the C5 Z06. But the timeslips say different. But between the standard C5 and a new Z06, oh yeah, there's a pretty healthy difference there.
