Z51?
How can I tell if my 2007 C6 has the Z51 package? Would the VIN confirm it? I didn't think I had it when I bought it but my rotors are drilled and now I'm wondering.

Everyone is a comedian! Hey, I'm happy. I just got a cool upgrade I didn't think I had. Were most non Z06 C6's equipped with the Z51 option?

In model year 2007, 41.7% of the coupes and 43.3% of the verts had the Z51 option package.

A rather common option mostly to get the larger cross-drilled rotors because they resembled those on a Z06.

I ordered it for the coolers, (trans, engine and power steering) the rotor's are cool also. In 2005 there was no Z06 to resemble.
