Am I doing ok>???
I am about to mail a check to put a deposit on my first Z06 and first Vette for that matter.
It is an 01' Speedway White with Mod Red interior. 9500 miles. I am getting her for $30,500. Am I do the right thing here>??? Let me know before this check goes in the mail in a few hours!!! Thanks, -Mat-

Hi SVT F15O -
There is one like that sitting at LGM in Dallas (Wylie) Texas.
Speedway white, mod red, LG lontubes and tuned.
I think it had around 10k miles on it - and it was an ask of $31k if I remember correctly.
Very nice color combo - it'll be a standout car!
best regards -

Thanks everyone, pretty sure I am going to go for it. Either trying to get a quick flight down in the morning or driving down with my truck and trailer on Saturday.
I am coming from an 03' Cobra and an 01' Lightning. I do have an 87' GN in the garage as well. Can't wait to get her and start modding! -Mat-

Coming from an 03 Cobra, I think the first thing you will notice will be the handling of the car. Obviously the LS6 motor is not quite as easy to mod as your Cobra's, but headers and a tune will make a noticeable difference. Good luck.

Sorry, $10 grand is too much to mail as a deposit.

It is at a GMC dealership by the way.Rather than mail anything, my brother was kind enough to run the show at work today and I am flying out in a few hours to check it out. If it looks good then I will be handing over the check, slapping on my plate and driving home. I am so excited I could barely sleep last night. I hope I like this thing! -Mat-

If your Cobra was modded, you might be a little disappointed at first. The Z has a much different feel to it.
