Do I need to sprinkle some on my hand and give you a stupid slap or do you get the point?

Why can't people just be happy with the fact that they are both great cars. Different cars for different tastes. If I was going pick between a z06 or M5 I would probably get a M5 (I would still keep my Supra). I have a 94 Turbo Supra so there is no need for me to get a Z06. Going fast in a big sedan roomy luxury/performance sedan is an awesome thought.

mike... you state that the bmw rides better, blah blah blah... the zo6 is damn near a race suspension... what you think is gonna ride nicer?
the bmw is a sportsedan... hmm... nice firm ride?
yeah.
zo6 is super stiff, handles amazing, and corners so hard your stomach moves places it wasnt designed to go.
badass car on the track? yeah.

and either way, i would take either car, but when i spend about half the cash to buy a zo6 and have almost enough for an m3 left over...
hmm... m5 sounds kinda pricey for what it does...

and i am not shootin at anyone, but i am not a fan of diehards that only know numbers
oh yeah... who won the 24 at daytona? vette. which car is actually in production, not the mclaren. dont compare super exotic purpose built motors to a street vette. we all know that the mclaren is amazing.
and, the vette zo6 has a titanium exhaust... that is just fuggin cool...
and remember, the zo6 only has a slight increase in power, it is lighter and stickier, that is where the increases are... the m5 added a monster motor...
so compare the c5 and 540, and the c5 wins... compare the c5 and m5, and the c5 will win overall...
then drop a zo6 in... who would win...hmm...
but dont compare sedans and sports cars...
cuz it is unfair to compare cars in different classes, so no comparing turbo civics to vettes, or anything like that... cuz they arent in the same League... riiiiight
