Hey everyone I use to own a ls3 and traded it for a 10 gt500.
Got bored of the gt500 couldn't do much in it as it couldn't turn.
Found an 08 zo6 18k miles and I love it!! Had it for 3 days now.
Here's the site I bought it from with all the pics. Clean car and I got a 3 year warranty.

Welcome and enjoy your new ride.

I drove my C5 before getting my C6Z a few months ago. Passed the C5 on to my wife though.

It's night and day man. The mustang was cool. But the zo6 is so much faster and handles amazingly so happy I made the trade

I just got one too.
Traded my 2011 base coupe for a 2009 Z06. -19,000 miles
My 2011 had 30,600 miles on it, I had bought it new in late 2010.
-enjoyed it a lot, but the Z06 is so much more car. I love it.

Great to find a non-molested garage queen like this.

Congratulations! I just picked up my second C6Z and it feels good to be back behind the wheel again. Enjoy your ride! Do you have any plans for it?

Sorry, not true. Brought my decked out Z06 to a car show last Sat. with a friend who has an 02 Viper GTS. People would walk right by mine to look at his Viper. I can run circles around him but he does bring in the crowds. The Z06 is hands down a better car but the people liked the GTS looks better. No counting for taste I guess.

08 GT 500 with 520 RWHP. Nice car went well in a straight line. Liked that it was a convertible but not even close to the car my 07' Z is.
