I had a mate recently go to the US and rent out a z06... Just by going on what he said, it didnt handle to save itself. Prehaps he was wrong, I doubt it as he drove it around for a week, and when hes here he owns a 02ish commodore, but feh.

There yank tanks that will never be availible here. I dont really get why we dont import more, I mean we import enough grey imports from japan right? But you never really see much in the way of yankee cars. Not that I mind, I dont really like them.

The Z06 handles great by all accounts it is America's very own supercar which can easily trade blows with exotics and the price tag is amazing in the US it did exactly what the GT-R is doing now years ago. The 'ring time as well as times on other tracks show this to be true.

Overseas though the Z06 is barely even a footnote since it's kinda hard to sell a gigantic engine on oxcart suspension to Europeans and in Australia even our V8 lovers cringe at the massive price tag importers are asking after taxes, compliance and RHD conversion.

Saw an ad for a brand new 07 Z06 in the paper on thursday. $250k AUD. I'm sure you can get a better deal somewhere but come on that's just silly.
