Was looking at some C6 Z06 Pictures last night online. Didn't realize the newer C6 Z06's are all Hatch Back Coupes smiliar to standard C5 Hatch Back Coupes. Guess I wasn't paying enough attention to the newer Vette's being all of the C5 Z06's were not built that way being they retained the FRC look that I never cared for about a C5 Z06 or the earlier FRC C5 Corvettes. I always preferred the Hatch Back Coupe instead. The FRC look reminded me too much of the rear design on a C3 Corvette and I have to admit I never cared for the limited space one had behind the seats of a C3 Corvette on the 3 C-3's that I have owned.

I'd have to agree ,I never cared for the fix roof .
Although the Z06 is a great machine ,it rides hard for an old fella ,Little to much performance for an old fella --hell I seldom drive more than 150mph .
I think it does appeal to younger vet owners .I just like a vert or removable top and let the breeze blow my few head hairs around .

Not much of a Vert Fan here as my first Corvette a '67 Vert I purchased in 1970 didn't do it for me. I mostly drove with the Black Cornvertible top up on the car. Also had the hard top but hardly used it being I liked the look of the Convertible top on the C-2 better. Had a lot of hair back then and the Vert caused it to blow all around when drivng. Don't have that much hair today but I rather have the A/C on, on hot days. I shake my head when I see someone in a Vert driving around in the hottest weather with the top down and the Sun beating on everything. As a former Vert owner you know that person can not be comfortable. Might think they are cool but they are not keeping cool so to say. You just know it.
