another thing that worries me is that the 427 is indeed sharing many parts with the C6R motor...the C6R motor doesn't have to run for all that long. i.e., it gets rebuilt often. i have a feeling that the 427's will fail before long as well. it's the price of owning a high-strung engine.

You mean that the engine that runs for 24 hours straight at such race tracks as LeMans and Sebring, and wins over the likes of Ferrari and Aston all the time without breaking down, you think there could be a problem?
You are telling me that the handbuilt, dry sumped oiled engine could possibly give you troubles?
Possible....but not probable. And if so, would be a hell of a lot cheaper to fix compared to engines in the cars that the Z06 runs with.
But yes, if you father is looking for a true performing street car, the C6 Z51 is the one for you. 6spd manual is standard, and you can load that bad boy up with DVD navi, heated and cooled seats, and lets also not forget about the HUD and On Star.
