[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 8813880, member: 15703"] I really think it depends on what you plan on doing with the car. If you're wanting something for straight line performance.drag racing. Definitely get the Cobra. If you're looking to auto-x or road race, definitely go with the Z. If you're kind of a jack of all trades type guy, I still think the z fits the bill better. It moves quickly, and handles great. Plus it gets a ton better fuel mileage out on the highway than the cobra. I'm reaching that fuel economy is even a concern since you have a DD. Having had an 2003 Cobra, 1999 Cobra, 2002 Mustang GT and currently owning a 2008 Mustang GT/CS I would say...go with the vette. The mustangs are great, dont get me wrong. But, they only do one thing better than the c5 Z06, and that's straight line acceleration. The caveat there however, is that you've got to modify the Cobra to do that. Stock for stock the C5Z should run down the Cobra pretty easily. The vette will likely be cheaper to insure as well. At least based on my experience. My C6Z is cheaper to insure by about $30.00 p/month than it is to insure my 08 GT. Although, for whatever reason the S197 cars tend to have high insurance rates. Something to keep in mind though.
