The Z06 is the complete opposite, for going quickly, it needs a nice length of highway to stretch its legs a little. Once you get it going, it just pulls and pulls and never wants to stop. Around town, its still pretty fun, the exhaust is awesome, but you can't exploit its potential. I guess you can say its cramped for city driving.

While I wouldn't call the 86 fast, it isn't slow by any means. Its a reasonably quick car. It feels just as quick as my RX8 does when revved out, but the 86 has much more grunt on the low end. Again, its not fast, but decently quick.
That's a really good way to put things in perspective. I love the 86 haha.
