You know, I hated on the Corvette for a while but it really does have some redeeming qualities. Great engine, OK styling, American built, good power, etc...

Yeah, it can't beat a Japanese family sedan on a track. Big deal. It's pretty fucking good otherwise though.

Despite all of the corvette hate-memes on here, I want a C6 Z06 too. They are a solid performer for the price stock and are a indisputably a great platform for performance mods.

I'd probably keep it stock and do trackdays for driver mod instead of modding the car. Maybe do some handling mods if necessary. I don't really have a desire to make a street car that is capable of 11s in the 1/4mi any more powerful.

>>16896176
Just swap the Goodyear Runflats for a better performance tire, and use a better brake pad, and you will see a tangible improvement in handling on a track without having to get into shocks or swaybars.

A brand new base model Corvette requires a net, not gross, net income of ~80k USD a year to be considered a financially sound decision Maybe 65k if you're willing to give up other luxuries for it.

kek
you're not fast enough to justify that "upgrade" and it certainly isn't worth the added cost if the car isn't dedicated for the track. Completely pointless on a car which is mostly street driven.
>>
>>16897822
True but the asking price for these are still pretty high.

Ironically, I think, if you want to track it consistently, the iron rotors and a performance brake pad are more cost effective that running carbon ceramic setup fom a Z07 if you actually do multiple track days a year. A set of hoosier A7s dedicated to the track are also better than the Z07 cup tires too.

I rarely ever see C6 Z06/Z07s on the track, maybe once ever, no one wants to impact their rarity.
>>
Same should have one by 24
>>
>>16898376
I only explained what the Z07 was dude, pay attention

This is also me, and I agree >>16898399
>>
>>16897822

just to put it out there.

http://oppositelock.kinja.com/heres-what-tires-pads-and-rotors-cost-for-the-new-z07-1691294408

if you need to replace the brake rotors and pads, it will cost at least $10,000 even ordering it yourself, $2000 just for the pads. Michelin cup tires are $400 a piece too.

Budget sports cars are nice until it comes time to replace the parts that make them go fast.
>>
>>16898424
>ordering from the dealer
>>
>>16898424
Meanwhile OEM rotors on a regular C6Z06 can be purchased for $75 each, and expensive track pads from Carbotech will run about $750 front and back, you can get by with less for OEM or Hawks.

You can change your brakes and rotors at least 6-7 times for the cost of changing the Carbon Ceramic set up.

That 6-7 brake pad changes will get you at least a good 28 track days too (depending on track and your ability to use the brakes hard).

Tires on the C6Z06 just suck for costs period. No matter what you get you will be paying any where from $1000-$1500 just for the tires.

This is why people track cars like the Miata and even the BRZ/FRS that everyone here talks shit about.
>>
>>16898444

If you read the article, it's $17,000 from the dealer, $9,000 from their supplier. But I wouldn't imagine you can read very well.

>>16898553
I'm not sure if you mean just the C6 Z06/Z07s, but all C6Z06s have stabilized.

People are seeking them out as track cars, and because of the N/A LS7 engine.

I've gotten so many hook ups from going to Corvette meets. I got a supercharger for my c6 for 4k just from some boomer. He had it laying around and just never installed it because of his age. Most of the vette owners at meets are either retired and bored so they can give you lots of information or they have a side business or know someone that can give you a hook up. I'm 33 and when I go to these meets I'm one of the youngest people there so the boomers flock to me.
