Made the mistake of looking at a Watkins Glen Gray
I was previously not a fan of the C7. I think I'm now going to have to order one with yellow calipers. Ugh..
Surprisingly, I Didn't care for black rose, and thought the sterling blue looked terrible. Dealership had about 5 17 Z06's; all 1LZ.

I was on the fence w/Shark Gray (second choice), but I think I would have jumped on the Watkins Glen Gray.

Love the Watkins Gray
I'm on the brink of ordering a Z06 Watkins Glen Gray Metallic with Black interior. Can't decide on the Z07 package or not. I might take the car to the track for kicks every once in a while but not on a regular basis. Is the Z07 worth it?

Not for just "kicks once in a while," especially as the stage 2 Z06 is still a lot of fun on the track.
If you however had said that you competitively track your car, would have posted that getting a Z07 is definitely worth it.

I really love that Watkins Glen Gray and had it been 20k off like my leftover 16 shark gray (and had the twilight blue package, i WANTED these wheels in the worst way) i would have purchased it instead.. but that did not happen and it was not an option!
Looks great best of luck with it.

Yea I love my NRB but Watkins Grey is a head turner. Wish my current one was paid off because I think I could convince the wife (she loves WGG too) that she needs an upgrade

Heh ......... Wish I had it that easy. My s/o is not a car person. For her, 4 doors is a must.
