I've owned several Cobra replicas, big and small-block, and have driven a C5 Z06 on the track and my own 420 rwhp '99 'Vette on the street. The Cobra is a wonderful car for a cruise, and is fine for straight-line bursts of speed, but the 'Vette is simply a superior high-performance car. Hell, it's got to be--it's got forty years of technology over a Cobra.

He's right, I own a C-5 Z06. I love my 427 Cobra but the vette is a superior car in almost every catagory with the exception of turning heads.
