I'm about to list an 09 Katech Stage 2 Z06 (+cyl head upgrade) for sale. 21000 miles, black. It's going to be listed at $50k which is not to far off, but well done by Katech. Let me know if you're interested.

I think you just missed out on the best deal on the for sale section.

It's so hard to find? Is that some kind of a joke? Look around in here...there have been plenty of cars that fit your description in here...including some that are still for sale. Take the 10 minutes to look...

I know what you mean... Look at all the Z's over 40k some modded others stock with too much risk of spending over 40k then dropping a valve... Happen to my buddy with only 9k miles on the motor... The only ones I see going are in The high 30's. I am looking as well with money to spend but not buying a stock Z for over 40 just not worth it. IMO

I just drove all the way from FL to VA last week to buy this car after being told it was "perfect" by its owner. Drove up there, cash in hand, and the car was very clean. However, as soon as I got it on the highway, it had a bad front end vibration and the steering was approximately 2" off center. How this was "unnoticed" by the owner is beyond me. After talking with the owner about the issue, he would not budge on price at all to even PARTIALLY compensate after I just drove 13 hours to come buy this car. But after a 26 hour round trip and $500 in rental cars, hotels and gas, just be aware that a car may not be as nice as it looks. Oh well, next time I'll have a private inspection done. At least lunch in savannah was good.

For that price, the car better not have ONE issue, regardless of how minor. Good for you walking on it...even with all the time you put into going to pick it up. Better to find the right one than get stuck with something you have to pour more $$ into, or have problems down the road. I'm sure those issues could have been resolved fairly easily...too bad he wouldn't work with you on it.

I know you are looking for a Z06, but I am selling a supercharged LS3 if you have any interest. You can take a look at it https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...m-4lt-z51.html

makes more power than a Z06 and for less money than you are trying to spend. Let me know what you think.
