I read this on Car and Driver. From what it say's the new ZO6 is going to rip when it comes out. What do you think?

It might be a repost, but even though the numbers are estimated, I'm definitely going to take a look at it when it comes out later this year.

I'd rather have the new ZO6.

Anything Lingenfelter puts out is overpriced. Why pay 85k for a car that is going to be slower then a car I can get for 75k? And it has a factory warranty too.

Besides, Lingenfelters car doesn't have the added engineering. No magnesium frame. No lightweight glass. No Z06 only additions.

I'll take the Z06, and skip Lingenfelter all together.

 

[Shant]

:agreed:^ I'd rather buy a brand new z06 with black housing headlights and put some bolt ons what else do you need the cars 11 second stock lol

 

[Tatanko]

Yeah...I just can't grasp why you would pay more for less? :dunno:

 

[david394]

That's what I'm talking about the new Z06. I'm just talking about the numbers they are projecting for the new Z06. The lingenfelter is just a comparison as to what the new Z06 will run.

the C4 is still my favorite. Cam/heads, headers back, intake you got urself an 11 sec beast, that is much cheaper than the new C5 & 6 .

Heh...personally I'd take a C3 over any other generation. Especially a Stingray :biggrin:

John had passed away before the unveiling of the C6. He has no contribution to that package aside from lending his name to it.

I would get the C6 Z06 instead. Although John's 427 TT C5 still ranks as the premier Corvette upgrades out there.

The new SRT-10 Viper delivers similar performance numbers + factory warranty that's extendable + outrageous pimp factor all for similar dollars. Slap on HREs on the SRT-10 and call it the day.

It seems like LPE is on the ball with their F.I. pkgs for the C6 already:

951 flywheel hp and 950 lb.ft. torque with 850 lb.ft. torque at 3250 rpms and 900 hp by 5000 rpms. This is from a development engine. :eek2:

 

[Supra SONIC]

I know the ad doesn't mention it, but doesn't the TT Ling. C5 do 0-60 in 2.3sec.... I think I have a vid of it. Anyways, buy the ZO6 AND have Ling. have his way with it.

 

[brewster]

I remember C&D testing a Lingenfelter C5 that did 0-60 in 1.7 seconds. They tested it against a F/A 18 Hornet. Rediculous.

-Brewster :run:

with black housing headlights

LOL Glad I'm not alone on this one. The yellow housing (or red, whatever matches the outside color) looks really cheesy/ricey...nobody I know agrees with me on that one. Toyota had it right with their 97-98 MKIV headlights...they knew whatsup...
