The magnitude of the price increase is irrelevant at this point, pending confirmation of the final specs.
However some good points are raised in this thread.
Vipers are way more exclusive in numbers. We drive down the street and my kids see one and yell ...VIPER, and they do the same for Z06! That does not happen with Corvettes-- too many of them. The C5 Z06, while not as exclusive as a Viper, enjoyed a nice distinguishing feature in styling over the base coupe that I have come to like... The FRC.
I hope everything is wrong about the styling of the C6Z06 that has been leaked. If this car is a performance version of a base coupe with BLING BLING for 75K, then the perspective buyer with 75K to blow who wants performance, styling and exclusivity would be NUTS not to look hard at a SRT 10 Viper over a Z06. Resale??? Those C6 Zs will fall fast IF the rumored 20% of sales hold true.
Those folks aside, the folks in the market for the top performance bang for the buck in a stock show room car may find in the C6 Z, even at or near Viper price numbers....
T minus 1 day till the NAIAS show, press only, and we will soon find out.
