Just bought a 2002 victory red Z with 103 K on it . We just changed all the fluids, put in an MGW shifter and tuned it with HP tuners...car runs awesome and actually feels much tighter than my previous 2009 coupe which was totalled last month. Car pulls really hard and gets great mileage too. Next mod will be headers and maybe a cam later...but right now I am just enjoying it.
Just tried on some c6 wheels I had picked up previously.
If that car has been driven that many miles then it is not being driven correctly hahahahaha
I do believe it is possible, because I read on this forum all the time, that "whoever buys my car is going to get a deal because I've never done a wot run ever" I've simply read this so many times I believe it to be true.
sometimes

I don't consider (2) 4L60 transmissions in 500,000+ miles or 700,000+ plus miles be the weak link in an auto car. How many times would a 6-speed manual and the clutch have to be replaced or rebuilt in that many miles. The 2 highest mileage C5's discussed in this thread have 4L60 auto transmissions. You vouch for c599's mileage and nobody knows for sure if the 700,000+ mileage car is real. 2 transmissions in both of those C5's with that many miles to me is incredible.
Uh. So we have 4 transmission failures and 0 engine failures. Which is the weak link?

Do you know for sure that there were no engine failures on either one of these C5's? The original comment was that the 4L60 was the weak link on the car. Didn't know we were only talking about the engine and transmission. Many other expensive components and systems on the 2 cars that were probably replaced and possibly more than once.

I know c599 has had no major mechanical issues with the engine.
I know that there are several other areas that the vehicle may fail, but power train issues are the only ones that really render the car undrivable, without major expense like engine, trans, diff.
Really good guy too, I enjoyed talking to him about his cars, he checks in here every once in a while with updates. He was gonna supercharge the car but decided to leave it as is (cam only with other boltons) and see how many miles he can rack up.
It never lists the Vin with this method, unfortunately. It does come back as a 2000 Corvette with records. I guess they don't want people to get your vin number without paying
Why? I was skeptical and rightly so. You act like this is the first time you have ever been right about something.
I wanted some evidence and I got it. Move along.... nothing to see here.
Now how about some more information about the C5 Corvette with the highest mileage in the world. I really think it's fantastic that he got that many miles on his car.

So, you're saying even though you were wrong, you're still right in some way? Lol, come on man. Being humble from time to time is a good trait. Don't forget to do a PPI on that crow before you eat it
Designer Imagines A Corvette That Looks More Like a Corvette Than the Corvette
