I like how he specifically on the ad states: "A removable hard top Z06. It is not a clone, it is a true 2002 Corvette Z06 that has been customized with a removable hardtop."

I ran across that one on my hunt for a Z.

The vin # is that of a frc. The sixth digit is for the body style. It is a 1, and that's a frc, which in 2002 was only a zo6. Strange! maybe it was damaged and rebuilt as a coupe?

During my search, I found a targa conversion Z06, and a convertible conversion Z06. Both documented. They were the real thing, from reputable shops. The targa was a Caravaggio, can't remember the conv., though, but it was no fake. Both cars have been displayed on this site

I dunno... If you could pin down the shop (if it was a shop) that did the conversion and make sure it was legit, that's a pretty sweet package. Fully decked out Apsis interior too if the steering wheel is any indication. Course you gotta REALLY like blue, but if that's your thing then that's pretty friggin cool.

I'm very curious about this car's lineage, but it almost has to be a wrecked rebuild. Has alot of expensive mods, and low miles, which could be BS. Anyway, it's a gamble, but interesting.

I'd bet somebody hacked up a Z just like they do to make them verts.
It would be very interesting to look at the details in person of this car.

I agree from the above... Its not a Z06 of course.
I'm thinking VIN swap or a mistake in the VIN they input into the add.
