Both my z06 and m5 were virgins and well kept, and I believe the numbers are pretty fair between the two as well as actually as can be in all fairness.
2016 C7 Z06 Auto w/ z07 package, I removed the aero since it definitely slowed it down upstairs big time. Did a good bit of dragy's with her since I wasn't sure if I was going to keep and modify. Was pissed you have to upgraded the tinny ass blower they used. IMO it wasn't worth it for what you get. Here are some comparisons.
2016 Z06 7k miles bone stock. (all done with 79 degree/1650da)
Stock = 11.79@125.39 / 60-130 = 8.90
Tuned/logged and revised on stock hardware (same weather conditions)
11.32@127.73 / 60-130 = 8.08
2019 M5 comp (all done with 81 degrees/1734 da, all same exact road as well)
stock = 10.98/126.62 / 60-130= 8.43
stage 1 BM3 93 tune = 10.68@ 129.72 / 60-130 = 7.87
BTW I believe this video shows it pretty well with mods between them, with a health f90 m5 and with a good tune their are pretty damn impressive. The C7 Z06 never impressed me for what it should be.

And not to sound like an ass or anything, but if you were doing 11.79 in a C7Z (auto) you weren't driving correctly. Plain and simple. Your "tuned" z06 was/is slower than my stock vehicle. How is that even possible?
