    Justin seems like a really nice and humble guy. Expressed himself well in his feelings on both the cars. I think the main advantage for the F8 is it weighs a lot less than the Z06. Vettes were pretty light with the C6 zo6 , the C5 and for sure the C4 generation weighed roughly around 3100 lbs.

    As far as the Z06 being a daily car, I think the Z06 would be an amazing daily with the normal summer tires, non-z07 with 3LZ in one of the more tour-y drive modes. The fully specced out most aggressive mode Z06 sure sounds like a lot of fun to drive or track, but I don't think I could survive being in a car that loud and aggressive for more than an hour or two of commuting, but I guess that's why there are different modes.

    I honestly like the Z06 more design wise. If they were priced the same, z06 being more or the Ferrari being less, I’d still pick the Z06. I feel like when they are this close in performance, you’re just paying for the Ferrari name which doesn’t matter much to me. Obviously the Ferrari will hold its value better over time but as far as ownership, the Vette wins for me. In reality, it’s a no brainer due to the performance value. But regardless, it’s a mute point because I can’t afford either 😅

    Ok. Totally inconsequential belief here: the blue color is simply amazing, and that's coming from a guy who does not like blue. Overall, my vote is for the Vette, as it is so involving and quick. Also, NOTHING COMPARES TO A N/A ENGINE. NOTHING!!!! Why no supercharging? I know the downsides to this application, but it provides tremendous Hp, great whining sound, and allows the exhaust to sing it's great tunes.
    To me, regardless of price, I'd still choose the Vette, although I'm not historically a Vette guy. I'm a Porsche guy. The presentation was really good, so kudos to, Justin. Be Well & Go In Peace. Jeff

    Nothing handles like a Ferrari. The geometry is beyond perfect. The Z06 is no doubt built with GM components, maybe some shared, maybe not, but GM's geometry for sure. GM might be getting close to the performance of a Ferrari, but, the smoothness and the precise handling of a Ferrari does it for me.

    GM bought a Ferrari 458, picked it apart. Then bought a Ferrari 488, and then another 458. Corvette always did this. Buy Ferraris to see if they could copy their performance cheaper. They never used to tell people that. Because its a bit embarrassing. But now.... They have decided to go all-out and BRAG about their car being a cheap plastic Ferrari knockoff. Which is just weird.

Coming from someone who has always loved the sound of cammed LS/LT GM engines, I have fallen in love with the Z06 engine. The sound of the Z06 is absolutely intoxicating.

      But here's some food for thought. Randy Pobst have driven the C8 Z51 pack car around Laguna Seca. He has also driven the F8 with the older MPSS K3 tyres on it which were the predecessor to the MPS4S. The C8 was fitted with the newer MPS4S. The F8 was over seven seconds faster - that's a lot on a sub 1.40 track. My point being that this is a lot of time to reel in for the Z06. Now imagine if that F8 was on CF wheels and the Pista spec Cup 2 R boots like top tier Z07. The Z07 will be a sharp car for sure and very capable, but it's a LOT to ask for a car that is heavier and has less torque.

    I like both cars but the Corvette has the overall concept of the exotic car look and styling. But the front end look like there was an after thought with add on front splitter. The front face doesn't follow smoothly. The face should look sculpted with smooth follow lines. The side panel started off with the right idea but then something happened. The black molding also look like an after thought. It doesn't follow with the design. Now the rear end has the signature Corvette rear tail lights. The rear end and the engine bay look like attention to quality and detail wasn't in the budget. Although I love the interior design and engine speaks volume. The attention to detail, quality, fit and finish of the cars design is lacking. The Ferrari exemplifies fit finish and quality. Although the Ferrari may be $100,000 more but look what you get. You get a exculpted machine that's a instant classic. Not to take anything away from the Corvette but there are a lot areas for improvements.
