Picked up my new to me 2003 ZO6 with 1900 original miles one owner car in Perfect condition. Changed the oil, tranny fluid, and rear differential fluid. I love the 2001-04 ZO6's

Welcome to the addiction! Looks like a gorgeous Z.

Although... it is Z06 (The number, not the letter)

Enjoy!!!

Big thanks to everyone on the forum who helped answer my questions on what is a reasonable price to pay, and what color yellow or black. Real happy with the car and love the color but in all fairness I never heard back from the second car I was interested in which was black.

Very nice. Can never figure it out. Buy a Z, put 300 miles on it a year & sell it. Good find.

Probably have to put it away, may get one or two drives in hopefully, before they salt the roads. The best part is it looks like it just came off the showroom floor still had the plastic tag hanging off the glove box. When I had it up on the lift my wife started laughing, she's like it doesn't look like it has ever been used. The owner was in his late 50's early 60's and had to additional Hotrods a Boyd Cottington coupe and 69 camero SS so this just kinda sat around.
