I read a Motor Trend aticle about the Z06 engine factory. A M A Z I N G!!

In short EVERY SINGLE assembly step is computer monitored, measured and logged to ensure that the engine is PERFECT. For example, they use a computerized torque wrench that measures, verifies and logs the torque of EVERY BOLT.

They have a video on their web site, but it does not go into the details the article provided.

Id still take the F430 without hesitation, look at the attention to detail on the Ferrari, on the interior and exterior the "F430" logos on the mirrors, and the interior so detailed and user friendly. The brake rotors on the F430 are MASSIVE, i mean jeez they are like 17'' or more.
Screw the Z06, id take any other supercar that isnt made with that "american quality"..

That new vette kicks ass all over the "super car" scene.......twice the performance for (in many cases) 1/4 of the price. Since I cannot afford a 430...........I will take that vette ANYDAY and twice on tuesday. Love how we talk smack about cars cars we can't afford anyway...........kills me.

uh.. yea sign me up for a ferrari also.
hey, maybe you can make that an ENZO while you are at it

just the sheer fact that a 50k ride can be compared to rides in the 6 figures is statement enough.
C6 is an amazing ride for the price.
i was grinning ear to ear while driving it. (and it was an automatic!)
imagine what it could've been in a manual!
