Its a fuck sight easier to get a test drive in a 997tt than a Z06 I am finding out. The pisstakers asking 70k for a 'vette on Autotrader just flat refused.

Loads of carbon and magnesium in the Z06. It weighs less than an Evo. The Yanks have actually produced a proper drivers car

Well after my efforts today I'd say at the moment you have a better chance of rogering the Queen up the bunghole than getting a testdrive in a Z06
