Celica Forums General Discussion General Drove a Corvette ZO6

I drove an 04 z06 the other night. That car is amazing! It has some crazy torque! You can feel it immediately once you shift into second gear for example. If you don't shift above 2000 while you're in 1st gear it'll put you in 4th gear and block you from entering 2nd gear. Also the heads up display is amazing! it displays the speed, tach, gas and gear you're in i think. The car is really easy to drive too and may I add that it's a kick in the ass to drive. The clutch is smooth. The only thing i don't like is the huge ass shift knob it comes with. Thanks Marcus!

i love vettes...musta been awsome.

Yea it was an experience. It made my GTS feel dirt slow.

thats what 52k will get ya...that car has the most hp for the $$ of any car in its class.

Yea, the guy got it for $42 out the door!

thats a great deal . I raced one just to see how much it would kill me by and ya...it was hella fast.

i wish i oculd drive one

ZO6's are so sweet.

my dad has an 03 Z06 and he has 450hp with headers, intake, exhaust, cats, and an X-Pipe to replace the stock H pipe. i myself have driven it and it does lay down some rubber very easily

haha the thing i don't like about z06's are that my hair isnt gray enough to drive one! (every time i see one its always some old guy--pisses me off!) haha. but i bet that was fun

yeah...i actually give this car respect.

I too love the vette, and there is not too many american cars I like. The vette is sweet though.

vette's are amazing things. i rode in a teammate's '03 cobra(about same straight line speed) and god damn! it really made me realize how the celica lacks torque. that thing seemed to pull like a monster at any rpm, any gear. to sum it up . . . i was amazed!
