    Sorry, Bow-Tie boosters, Chevy's Corvette sat this one out. Among the world's best-performance values, even the 405-horsepower Z06 lacks the beans to tee up on this turf.

    the above 2nd paragraph on motor trends comparo of the ford gt to the viper

    I was referring to the C6 vette, which has 505hp.

        Just read Motor Trend this morning, 505hp was falsely advertised. "Rumor is it makes up to 550 horses (pg.22)"

              Not at all. According to Motor Trend again, Toyota is set to launch a truck in 2007 that would out performs Dodge, GMC, and Ford.

                  I completely forgot that they finally brought back reall power with a big block back to the 06 z06 and according to chevy corvette's own site it is 505

                  http://www.chevrolet.com/corvette/?seo=goo_Corvette

                  its about dam time we might get to see a high horsepower war between ford,chevy, and dodge again theirs been a lower but high horsepower war going on between the WRX and Evo for some time nice to see america get back into it like the late 60's again.... it only took ford 11 years to answer dodges viper but that's better than chevy's 13 years....

                  and no GM will not go away WHICH IS A GOOD THING competition is what gets us better cars/trucks and helps keep price down but they do need to open their eyes i don't think anyone can make a good argument against that....

                  bye the way thanks for giving me a reminder chevy has finaly gotten back into a performace vet... last time that has happened was back in the 60's with the last 427 big block (AWESOME) stingray now if they'd only make the z06 like the ford GT or dodge viper for people who know how to shift....

                    Actually, the LS7 is still a Gen IV small block.

                              True, but I'm just amazed by GM power competing with exotics for a fraction of the price.

                                  While I'm not much of a domestic fella, I would have to make an exception for the Z06. This one IS BAD ASS!
