I like the E63s, that would do quite nicely.
Not quite sure my beloved bride would share my enthusiasm.

Where is the Ferrari, Bugatti, GTR, McClaren? They can outrun several of these bad boys. Powerball is up to 200 mil. Time to buy a ticket which is the only way I could afford any of them.

Based on the price the Z06 is clearly the best value.

I agree, I have driven a friends 2016 Z06. Too much car for me. Even the standard vette is scary fast. So where can you really take these cars to their limit, track, autobahn, Nevada desert? I guess it's the status symbol for most.

My son-in-law's Tesla Model S is amazing. You push down hard on the accelerator and that car will push you back into the seat like no car I have even felt! Almost scary!!

Looking for a 997.2 GTS Cab. W/PDK. That would do in the low 4's.

The C7 Z06 gets my vote for the best bang-for-the-buck.
