If you can make the C7 work, you'd be crazy to pass it up. I have a C6 (427 Vert) in the garage next to the FRS. It's a blast to drive in the right conditions but much more often than not I prefer the FRS. Taking out the Vette feels more like dressing up to go on a date where the FRS is like slipping on your favorite pair of jeans and hanging with friends. My Vette also comes with the limited production run curse that keeps you looking at the odometer as if accumulating miles were a sin. Driving a C6 is much more work as well, clutch is much more stiff although it shifts butter smooth and the long hood makes you feel slightly disconnected from the road ( not as bad as the 370 though which I think has the worst driver positioning of any sports car I have driven) The C7 has supposedly resolved those flaws and has become a true drivers car without the C6 quirks.
