This past weekend I was in Las Vegas with my fiance for the first time (awesome, but that's not the point) and I rented a 2004 Z06. All I gotta say is damn, that's one very sweet car. The thing just pulls and pulls and pulls. I have an 04 SC281SC with minor mods and I gotta say that the ZO6 would rather easily take it....no question really. The Z06 is as quiet and composed as my 00' Audi S4 and gets far better mileage than most any other car I have ever owned (~30mpg highway). The Saleen is certainly more rare, has more character (that is debatable), sounds far better (Z06 tone is a bit dissapointing) and the handling is incredible (much like my S4). All in all, the Z06 is an incredible car and a real value for the money. This will certainly be my next fun car...but I'm keeping the Saleen (got a place in my heart )
I don't want this to come across as if i am bashing Saleen, although Ford's got a lot to learn yet. Fit and finish is not a strong suit of Ford/Saleen and the asking price (MSRP) is somewhat insulting. I love my Saleen but there are some nice(r) things out there......
Anyone else care to comment on their experiences with a Z06?
How have you guys set up your cars to beat them?
Thanks,
