the z06 is gonna be a whole lot faster, better sounding, better handling, etc. the sti is probably gonna be a better DD...but they're totally different beasts.

What are you looking to do with em? I'd choose the Z06 over the STI.

Get the Vette, a 505awhp STi is not going to be a reliable DD.

You do realize that a lot of higher hp factory cars come with twin-discs right?

That being said, I'd still get the z06.
