Went to Winn Dixie with wife and WOW!

[Mjolnir]

Z06 killed Ferrari F458 on the road course in the only heads-up comparo I saw.

Depends on the track.

 

[Mjolnir]

But how many people are impressed enough to take photos of a zo6 at Winn Dixie? I love the z06's and would own one in a hearbeat, but it's not a Ferrari

Yep. I feel the same.

 

[JadeRaven]

Just keep in mind that it really doesn't take that much money to buy one. It takes a whole crap load of money to MAINTAIN one...

7 years of maintenance is included with the purchase of a new 458.

Maintenance is probably as high as it's performance.

I don't know how much I'd have to be worth to actually purchase one...

I used to stop by a local Ferrari dealer in MI and they seemed easy enough to work on - w proper tools. Parts $ was unreal - and 911s are better built. :wink:

BTW I thought I'd mention, Winn√Dixie has been sold to Bi-Lo.

****** lazy cops.

Where's the Parking Police when you need 'em???

.

Believe it or not, there is no parish ordinance against parking in a fire zone.

How about a state law?

Real or kit?

I love vettes, but even the Z06 still comes with the cheap cheesy boring interior. Besides people buy vipers because everyone has a vette these days, and even a new standard model autotragic vette with a bottle is a stout performer.

 

[VeedUp]

That's what I did, but I can't step up to the F458's tag, so it was out of necessity, lol

If you really want to race some exotics come down to NOLA, theres a group of that race every weekend in undisclosed location called "Mexico" but if your stock don't waste your time or money for that matter. But Z06s make great daily drivers.

The interior and wheel bearings are about my ONLY complaints about the Vette. Well, it also lacks steering feel, too.

I could definitely live w a Z06!

I drive a '98 Nissan frontier with drunk dents all over it from a previous lifestyle. Paid for and the engine runs great. But a picture of it parked in front the grocery wouldn't give a bunch of dudes on a forum a hard-on., and for this I am thankful.

I got to ride in some nice cars when we escorted the cannon ball run thing when it made a stop downtown. My favorite ride along was in the Lamborghini, think it wa a spyder. Got some funny looks on I-10 cruising around in uniform in a convertible Lamborghini. And yes, I was off duty.

 

[gsneff]

i'd ticket it for being in the firelane.

I love all fast rides but bang for the buck, I'll keep my 625 hp 5.0 mustang that has less than 35k invested and gets 25mpg over any of them.

 

[03protege]

Depending on what you're driving for a straight line race but not likely on a road course. That and the skills of the drivers.

I'd take a Porsche 997 GT3 RS. The 458 is quicker but I prefer a manual trans. Odd thing is that I have no idea what I'd (really) do with it (in BTR); in MI there are lots of road courses. Would be a nice problem to ponder.

ROLLIN, In my 5 point 0 with the rag top down so my hair can blow.

 

[W1nds0rF0x]

Enzo, 599 GTO... Nordschleife. Even the 458 Italia though a "Scuderia" is running around Fiorano.

Okay it's official, I'll take the Agera R....
