-=-= Flawless! 2010 Callaway SC606 Turns 100,000 Miles In Under 2 Yrs @ Carlisle =-=-
As planned, we pulled into the Corvettes at Carlisle show this past week with 99,999 miles on the odometer - this car, our company demonstrator, has been a flawless vehicle!
On Friday at the event, we turned 100,000 miles, showcasing the fact our cars not only deliver serious power, they deliver reliability, and drivability
This is a car that has been autocrossed, roadraced, and driven by many prospective customers - never missing a beat Driven rigorously, yet intelligently!
She has only needed the following:
Thanks to all who came out to see this car over the past 23 mos. We're far from done with this car and will continue to showcase this vehicle at shows and dealers across the country
In the meantime, come and drive a Callaway Corvette, Camaro, or new Callaway SportTruck (Tahoe, Silverado, Suburban, Avalanche, or 2500HD gasoline) vehicles at an authorized dealer near you
To schedule your drive, please visit our website: www.callawaycars.com

Wayne - thanks! You don't know how hard it was to arrive w/ EXACTLY 99,999 miles
We're fairly sure this is the highest mileage modified Grand Sport and one of the highest mileage PBC-Built engines around
We're proud of this car and the accomplishments it has made

AWESOME!!! Makes me proud to be a Callaway sales rep since the beginning!(1987) Glad you got home before the storm of Irene hit. I am sure your girls were glad to have their parents under the home roof and not the Callaway tent!

Great numbers! What's been done to the bottom end or internals (if anything) on that Calaway engine from stock/OEM? Not asking for trade secrets simply has the bottom end or internals (rods, pistons, etc) changed from the factory? Is the engine opened up (other than cam) to install the SC?

...when one is looking for more than a collection of aftermarket parts and a hope they all work together, they should look to Callaway

You can just post a link to this when the next person asks 'why should I spend more $ on a Callaway when I can get the same thing done for....."
Anyway - I'm sure the people who test drive the car aren't exactly testing it's parallel parking abilities, which makes the 100k mile mark all that more amazing.
