I've noticed in most of the replies to my threads, and many other threads here, that many people are saying the regular C5 and the C5 Z06 are in "totally different classes".
Don't get me wrong, I love my Z06 and do agree it's a monster, but I have to disagree with that statement when referring to the stock 2001 Zee, because there's only a 35HP difference from the stock C5. IMO, that doesn't constitute a big enough difference to refer to it as being in a completely "different class". I'd say the 01 Zee's are in the same class as the C5's, just definitely at the top of that class.
That said, I'd definitely say the C6 Z06 is in an absolutely completely different class than the regular C5, because it has about 150 more HP, and even in a completely different class than the regular C6, with about 100 more HP. Those are significant differences.
I know there are more than a few enhancements that the 01 Zee has over the regular C5, that's why I'd rather have ANY year Zee over a regular C5...but with only 35 more HP, I'm wondering why so many people are saying it's in a totally different class. Are you all talking about only '02+ Zee's? Maybe I'm missing something here??? :-?
