Default Top 10 Reasons Why A Z06 is Better then a Viper

1) heated seats to keep your ass warm on cold winter days,
2) numerous cup holders to cradle your TAB soda,
3) Navigation that yells at you instructing a right turn is ahead,
4) orange-peel paint finish so your hands don't go numb while waxing the car,
5) automatic seats so you don't have to strain your lower back while adjusting,
6) heads up display so you can see how fast you are going and how many Gs you are pulling as you race to Burger King,
7) XM radio (option) so you can keep track of your wealth on Bloomberg's radio station or the depreciation rates on your Z,
8) someone actually signed your engine block!
9) You have 60,000 friends that have your exact same car,
10) you aren't worried when you park in the front spot at the grocery store!

Ah, just for fun - I could care less about the Z - it was early and I had nothing better to do!

You left out:

--constant light/bell show indicating to fix dozens of electrical prolems including "service active handling"

---finding a "Vette tech" at a Chevy dealership.

The real deal to make the Z go faster is not to fill the passener seat and to make sure you have an empty stomach to!

I have nothing better to do either... so im gonna reply

1) Heated seats? Yeah, a corvette owner would drive his ride in the winter!
2)No time to drink anything when Im driving
3)Navigation...just someting else to go wrong
4)orangepeel... no thanks
5)You dont need to adjust your seat if your the only one that drives your car
6)Heads up display... I wonder what Carrol Shelby has to say about that!
7)XM radio... who needs a radio when you have 10 cylinders singing
8)Yeah... and his name is Habib.. and he doesnt speak english either..
9)HAHAHA.... good one!
10)True.... especially since Vipers arent capable of going to the grocery store to begin with

YAWN........

Don't think they will make 60 thousand Z-06s.......but it will look like ALL the other C6 coupes (maybe 30 production per year)from a short distance if you are not car savvy!

Reason #11: No need to get familiar with the radio. It's just like the one in the Suburban/Tahoe/Silverado.
