Speedy: If you HAD to choose one, which would it be? Not a fair question, at least at this point, but what the hell! :)
Market on 170s has crashed imo. Im not sure if it's economy, srt rebirth, or folks tired of the platform but now could be a good time to buy if you've been eyeing one.

Z06 vs 170 is a tough call and to soon for me to have a solid opinion.

Z06 is a really fun car so far and a better touring car I don't mind putting miles on. If you wanna rip around it wins.

If you want an occasional driver you take to the strip and whip ass the 170 wins.

I've personally never liked limited edition cars, the circumstances around the 170 had me buy it as an exception. Its a really fun car, but I do feel like Im throwing $100 bills out the window when Im putting miles on it. With the prices coming down to msrp or less not as much.

And it's an Eray which is AWD. I considered one but worried about the complexity of the hybrid system long term.

I thought of you when taking the picture.

You think the twin turbos will add to the complexities?
