Everyone wants something that is fast, but I want something that is fast and can handle tight turns at high speeds. A Corvette is a fine piece of machinery when its going in a straight line it can damn well beat alot of cars, but when your going on road courses, and the back roads, the Vette is nothing more than a shell on wheels.

In comparison to what? Find me a stock BMW or Mercedes that can match a stock Z06 on a road course.

Ever heard of the E55 AMG, SL 55 AMG

“Based on our previous road test, the E55 AMG can almost keep up with the Dodge Viper SRT-10, and for sure can outrun a Corvette Z06 without breaking a sweat.”

They are talking about pure straight line speed. The Z06 is a pure sports car that will absolutely destroy those cars when it comes to handling.
