The real demon of that group is the Z06. I actually sort of prefer the muscularity of the C5 versus the more plasticine and smaller C6. Great stuff all the way around. There's nothing on that list that I wouldn't have fun driving.

The C6 Z06 gives many higher priced cars a good run for their money...they are notorious for knocking twin turbo 911's out of their roosts on the track.
