well to be honest with all the things going on i did put down the wrong mileage. now...it has 43500... I drove it to the mountains sat to help clear my head and tripped the odometer back to miles from trip 1 and when i got home that is where it is at now. I do agree it is a rather large cam. Sad thing is 90% of the driving it sees is cruise ins and trips to the lake.. But in its defense the torque curve is almost flat from 2k to 7k and the converters helped kill the gas smell. My first z06 back in 01 was my daily driver and i do mean daily,,that car was fun fast and speedway white too. We had to fly up to Chicago to get it and drove it home from steasik chevy. I guess it is all in what you want,,,some like to have them supercharged and cam'd heads and all,,,and others stone stock and I can see it from both sides. I do hope you find the one you want,,either way they are fun cars and well worth owning.

Nice car again, i inquired about it in Feb when the other guy was selling it.
I don't get the mileage thing, you have it listed at 41,000 miles the other guy who you bought it from starts off his ad saying it has 42,000 miles. some how it lost more mileage in the sale.
I'd love it but couldn't take the large cam and bucking because i drive mainly in my town and never get on the highway much and the in town speed limits are 30 to 45 so would be lots of bucking.. ashame these guys install such large cams on the Z's.. i mean from the factory they are pretty stout running for town driving.
Good luck on the sale and happy 4th to all

Thanks guys for the positive comments,,very nice cars ya'll have too!!! But I guess it is like everything else everyone has their own opinion on what is the prefect car for them. Just like color choices,,red, blue or ? stock or modded, z06 or reg vette or z51..or??. You cant blame them for that,,so I just take it with a grain of salt and go on...

Thank you for the answer; i just wondered on the mileage and you cleared that up. I don't mind a mild cam but it would have to be changed out if i bought yours.
thank you again.. I'm debating on a couple of Z's. I already have a low mileage 02 Z but adding a second

And you should MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS
that simple.. my comments were not negative.. if you could read you would see there was a mileage problem in the cars life in the past before the last two owners.. so i was wondering actual mileage since both the last owner and now the new owner stated different mileage in their ads.
A tip:: say it in person if you have something to say

Good luck with your sale. I too am selling my speedway white Z that I had no intentions of ever getting rid of. But family first!!! Yours is much nicer than mine. Such a beautiful, tastefully modded car. Best of luck to you!
