That's what I've been told by:
A Z06 owner
A BMW M3 owner
A Porsche 911 owner

So far, the cost of a couple of tower braces and some more agressive tires, equalling less than $1200, has proven otherwise. These cars were easily paced in the "twisties" by me. To date, the only vehicle that could beat my 03 beast in the twisties has been a 2002 Subaru WRX (awd) and, when the road straigted , it was good night WRX.

Handling Improvements To Date:
1 set BF Goodrich g-force T/A KD tires -- $950
1 Strut Tower Brace (Kenny Brown) -- $200
1 Rear Shock Tower Brace (fabricated Chrom-moly) -- $22 (home made)

total cost for handling improvements: $1172.00
total difference between my Cobra and a Z06: ~$20000.00
with mods the difference is: ~$18,828.00

Hmmmm? Where DID that money go? You'd better fire your accountant.
