Ever pulled a C5 or newer ZO6 to redline? My neighbor and I cracked 125 in third gear in his C6 ZO6, the sound and pull were nothing short of glorious. IMO they're incredible in their own right. Better watch those stereotypes JD.................



P.S. The 981 vs. C7 info makes most on this forum unqualified to accurately comment.

Well, given that I own both I can recommend if you are looking for space, power, long road trip car go with the vette. If you are looking for something that offers a spirited tight suspension ride that is very trackable and designed for twisties go with the Boxster. The vette has been perma grin since picking her up new and I am saving the Boxster for those PCA outings and weekend runs through the mountains. Either way, your going to end up with a great car no matter which way you go.
