Here are my 2 girls, the 02 Coupe has 37K on it. Pretty stock with Air Raid CAI, BB Bullet exhaust w/x pipe and modern stereo. Oh, and a cool Jake sticker. The Z06 is an 04 LeMans Edition, 100% stock with, get this, 7600 miles on it. Both great cars. Cant afford to keep both though so I am going to sell the coupe, if anyones interested...




Love the Jake Sticker



Love the polished Z06 rims and the Carbon Fiber Hood

Merry Christmas to me. Finally replaced my previous '03 Quick Silver Z06 with an '03 Electron Blue Z06. This one is almost perfect, but I plan on making it more perfecter. LOL

Here is what she has as she sits:

26K miles, all documentation (window sticker, VHS, delivery information from Kentucky by the original man who ordered the car, etc.), all receipts for previous service and upgrades, car cover, and everything else you would expect from the purchase of a well-maintained and loved car.

Came with: 18/19" C6 Spyder replicas, StopTech drilled and slotted rotors (new in boxes), K&N air intake, ARH 1.75" headers and x-pipe, Corsa cat-back, BTR Stage 2 cam kit and supporting goodies, trunion upgrade, oil catch can, MGW shifter with C6 ****, Kenwood receiver, cabin divider, and some other little goodies. Dynoed at 430rwhp.

Here is the gaggle of parts we are currently installing before she hibernates for the rest of winter: Elite Engineering tunnel plate and rocker savers, Monster LT1-S clutch kit, Kooks 1.875" headers, 3" x-pipe, and custom full 3" cat-back with Borla ProXS mufflers, FAST92 intake with LS2 throttle body, 36# injectors, Sparco steering wheel, billet pedals, Corbeau Evo X seats, Stranoparts sway bars, Aldan American coilovers, 18/19" Forgestar F14s in a brushed gloss finish with Michelin Pilot Super Sports, tinted/cleared lenses all around.

The paint is in really good shape, but I will have it professionally corrected and detailed after winter. She should look, sound, and run really well when she comes back out, ready for a full season of cruising, shows, and track events! Stay tuned!

Beauty and with those types of upgrades, what could you do to make it more "betterer"? Lol. I understand... 1st thing should be new/different rear tires. Those sidewalls seem to be a lil shallow?

Thanks, brother! Starting the long-term mods in spring. Doing a forged LS3 stroker and some boost. Most likely a ProCharger D1X. Getting wider fenders, so I will order some higher quality wheels at that time. Either Fikse Profil 5 or some Forgelines. The Forgestars will do a great job for now.

Those are actually 305/30R19 Continentals. I will be running the same size with the Pilots. The Contis seem to measure a little small, and Michelins always measure a little bigger, so the difference will be much better visually.

Looks damn good Charles.

I have been thinking about adding the rear flares and TS bumper like your car.

Didn't know the GS wheels would fit the way they do and look as good as they do. This changes everything.

Thanks Joe!

Yea, I would do it! The C5Z should have come from the factory with rear flares.

The GS wheels, I'm running the C5 offsets (56mm)on the front and the C6Z offsets (59mm) on the rear with a 20mm adapter.

Default New Pix of the Z

Took the car out to Treasure Island (Island between San Francisco and Oakland, half way across bay bridge). Took a few new pix. 7800 miles. Car is stock except shorty antenna and tinted windows. Probably will put a new head unit in with Blue Tooth and a back up cam. Other than that, I will leave it stock. Fast enough for me, lol

Default How do you like the rear spoiler/

Does the rear spoiler actually give you any more down force? Or just cosmetic? I like them

Apologies to the original owner, but this Z06 needed to be driven (drivers lack of skills notwithstanding)!

Couldn't agree more. Mine is a 2004 with 7600 miles on it. Just got it and already put 200 miles on it. Plan is about 4000 a year. A once a weekish car. Part of being in CA is you can drive it year round and I plan to.

Tom,
Love the 72. How do you fight the urge to not drive it? Do you ever cover it ? I couldn't stand to let it get dirty.
