As far as your questions go, it is a toss up. the C6 is better than the C5: give GM credit, they do improve the product over time.

That said, you like the styling of the C5 Z06 more, and it has fewer miles, apparently.

But there is little otherwise to pick between te two options you post. I recommend that you do what your gut wants and not worry about it.

Dude in the long run always go with what you like. Z06, C4, C5, C6..... It dosen''t matter. You can mod anything to perform better then the rest, so make sure you start with what you love because that can never be changed. Welcome to CFs
