It sure does. I had a comp cam 231/236 mild cam, with ARH and Corsa on my 03 EB Z , and wow, this is a completely a different car. It drives so much better than the C5Z did. I'm completely happy with it, and I didn't spend the $12,000 in mods this time.

Beautiful ride. Congrats on getting back into a Vette.


Why did you let your previous Z go?

I'd be happy with that. I don't think I will ever use the launch control. I know the previous owner did not, but this car will not be seeing the Quarter mile track. Now VIR, Virginia International Raceway is a different story.

The wife and I where expecting twins, and deep down I knew I wanted a C6 Z in the future. Here is a pic of my old Z, which was a beautiful car, and fun to drive.
