Default Another Callaway Z06

All I can say is wow! Today, I got my new Callaway Z06 and she is amazing. I absolutely love this car. My stock Z06 was incredibly fast but now she is insane. I cannot wait to get her to the drag way.

I really need to thank Chris from Callaway for making this process incredibly easy and for meeting my personal deadline of when I needed the car back. He was always incredibly responsive to all of my questions and I asked a lot . He was even able to get Reeves Callaway to sign her. I couldn't be happier with my choice to go with Callaway.

Here are a few of pictures.

to you, car looks great.

What you said & how you said it about Callaway and one of their members is outstanding in my book; Chris and Callaway should be very pleased with your comments.

IF I do decide to add more power to my Z06, I will be using Callaway.

Congrats on getting yours...

You mentioned they worked to get your car back when you needed it, this suggests you had your car prior to taking it to Callaway, did you have your Z before taking it to them?

As I've offered to others in the past, we can now provide marital counseling as a part of any deal, if it helps out. Of course, I am the counsellor, and results may vary

Seriously though, she'll understand. Wives - and husbands, they always do

I will second everything you said. Picked mine up in April and could not be happier with the experience and results.
Welcome to a very exclusive club.
Oh and disregard the haters. Envy/jealousy are nasty pills to swallow.

OP - congrats on the Callaway. You'll have a blast. 5k miles on mine and I'm having a ball. And your experience with Chris is what mine was - very responsive, and he put up with a bunch of questions from me and patiently answered every one. And it was his second time enduring that, as I previously owned a Callaway C6 widebody (that I drove the pants off of for almost 5 years and only changed tires and brakes).

Great rig. To anybody considering getting one, get their exhaust set-up. It is glorious. And if you've got an M7, their short-throw shifter is fantastic.

Yes, I had my car before I gave it to Callaway. Also, I moved up my required date during the build. They worked very hard and were actually able to get the car back to me before my required date. I'm very happy with Chris and the rest of the Callaway team.
