People who like the R8 don't care if you smoke them in a Z06. They're content just knowing they're more comfortable and have a more reliable a/c. It's like comparing a hardcore US marine to James Bond. One is clearly better trained in combat, the other has style. Which would you rather have as your wingman?

But it is not nearly as pretty as Ferrari or Lambo. Or as ferocious sounding. I would not wait more then 18 days for one. And a Z06 will smoke it on track day.

Come on... gimme a break. I'd rather walk down the street to the Chevy dealer... pick up a Z06 off the showroom floor... and still have 50k left over. 18 months for an Audi? Come on… gimme a break.
