ZO6 or Z06?
Hi all...I'm a camaro owner here lurking around the big dogs :).
Is it Z-letter O-6, or Z-zero-6?
Thanks!

It's Z oh 6
But I refuse to accept that, I say z-zero-6.
Of course, when I a phone number with zero, I say zero not oh and when I write the zero, I place a slash through it.
Hope this helps!

I need to clarify... Is it actually a zero or the letter "Oh" in the option code?

Goto the official GM Corvette site at
http://www.corvette.com
Click the Z06 link and look at the text on the page. You can copy the text and paint it into the Windows Notepad if you want to see it in a different font.
GM calls it a Z-zero-6.

It's Z06, now and back in '63. "0" is zero, and "O" is oh, but Americans have a bad habit of calling zero "oh". The British know better. They often refer to zero as "naught" or "aught".
Even Dave Hill has trouble distinguishing zero and oh, but your computer doesn't. It knows one from the other.
